Group E - England, India, South Africa, West Indies

[S Chanderpaul]

Gibbs batting like Rashid.

Think it's these new Saffie strips, not too complementary for the blokes of a fuller figure.

Maybe, but Gray & Jacques both wearing those sleeveless tank top-things too. Dead giveaway their midriffs not quite as solid as they might be.

Shah:

You can't bat
You can't run
You can't field
You can't bowl

What a player.

Oooooops!

tbh I hadn't even noticed the Stuart/Stewart mis-spell, which serves me right really.

So do you regularly hang out with FC cricketers nowadays? I'm impressed.

No, not really.. Parnell is a product of Grey High School which is down the road from me, so I guess he's from the same suburb.. Said bar used to be my local, then it turned into one of these godawful trendy restrobars, so is the default place for professional sports people to hang out now.. JJ Smuts, Ryan Kankowski and Keegan Daniel are the only pro sportspeople I have seen personally in recent times.. Guess the Eastern Cape is very small town kind of place

Mill Park?

 

[GIMH]

shambles, need less than a run a ball now, piss poor England

 

[kingkallis]

I dont understand why Nasser is so much bothered about the SAF run rate? Kallis and Gibbs doing a wonderful job..

 

[Langeveldt]

Mill Park?

Nah just across the valley, Walmer.. I used to live on Fifth Avenue, now live in South End.. you know it? Don't think there are any bars to speak of in Mill Park except on Cape Road

Just to hype up as if this will cost them.. what else

 

[stumpski]

Yeah, just want it over with now, so I can go and do something more productive. Any wickets will just delay the inevitable.

Dreadful day for England. But serious lol at guys saying 5-0 Australia etc.

Sure. Before moving to Canada I was in Mount Croix right on Cape Road, very close to 5-ways.

SA accelerating now. Will be over soon.

Quite - because England's performance in this competition will have a big bearing on what happens in the Ashes.

 

[GIMH]

This one will be over soon. Seriously disappointing. Really expected better.

We'll just have to do it the hard way, destroy India on Sunday and the Windies Monday. D'oh.

 

[shivfan]

Gibbs batting like Rashid.

Not any more....

So far, he's scored more than any England batsman, except Shah.

I'm sure the same can be said for Australia. Both sides is poor form.

 

[GIMH]

Nice to get the wicket but too little, too late.

 

[Langeveldt]

Sure. Before moving to Canada I was in Mount Croix right on Cape Road, very close to 5-ways.

Cool well I'll be in the Mount Road/Cape Road area tomorrow for a big party.. Used to have nets at Old Grey, and frequently made a tool out of myself at the bar there.. Good times, I doubt much has changed

Shah:

You can't bat
You can't run
You can't field
You can't bowl

What a player.

And he was England's topscorer, so what does that say about the rest of the batting?

Dream On..
