*Official* Pakistan v South Africa in Dubai

[Jarquis]

Worst captaincy. Honest to God. Letting Langeveldt get ripped into for his full 10 and then bowling Albie ****ing Morkel at the death. Jeez.
Sure you can't account for the bowling being quite that bad. But still.

Razzaq is a freak though, crazy crazy.

 

[kingkallis]

17 boundaries, 10 sixes!

Razzaq looks spent, as he should. Heart and soul went into that knock.

17??? You mean 7...

 

[Checkmate]

It's good for SA that this happened before the WC.

 

[kingkallis]

Peterson needs to go and let Theron play for god's sake. If Albie can make a place for himself as a batsman then fine or else he can keep himself busy for CSK.

17??? You mean 7...

6s are boundaries too...

 

[Himannv]

Haha what a knock that was. Fantastic.

 

[Contra]

Holy **** when I checked the scorecard like 20 minutes ago Razzaq was on 50 odd =O

 

[Faisal1985]

Well...that was unexpected...but boy did Razzaq wack all them all around the park...incredible simply incredible...

 

[NasserFan207]

Holy God, Razzaq is awesome.

 

[AaronK]

i am eating my words here..

i was the one who was calling for Razzaq's head haha

some amazing hitting there..

 

[robelinda]

Mother of all chokes from SA, it has to be said. Death bowling worse than India's. Still incredible stuff from Razzaq.

Thank god the kids woke up at 5am this morning and I got to see Razzaq!!!! Amazing player when he's going, huge hitter, all parts of the ground.

And I just LOVE a good south african choke for breakfast, suck on that saffers. This eases the pain of being thrashed by those little sri lankans.

Not the mother of all chokes though, there can be no doubt the greatest SA choke was the 99 WC. As long as I live I will laugh my ass off at that. And their math skills in the 03 WC, epic stuff.

 

[Faisal1985]

For sure one of the most high intensity tons i have ever seen...

Heh yea it's absolutely hilarious Theron isn't playing ahead of these numpties.

Teams seem to have figured out Albie Morkel, or he's just lost an edge, whatever. If I was a SA supporter I would feel uneasy whether he's batting or bowling.

 

[Faisal1985]

Must say Geo fifty over cricket!.....it must stay....

 

[Faisal1985]

The Beast!

 

[slowfinger]

The Beast!

... Who Like CABBAGES! Love the hell outa this beauty. I am keeping him in my team for ever and ever and ever and ever

Albie Morkel

 

[Athlai]

Razzaq is such a gun always been a fan.

 

[smash84]

God this team is so **** now. Not sure why I bother watching them.

I had written a similar comment before the start of the match Jono and I tell you......THIS is why I bother watching this **** team ...........

I must say this has to go down as one of the best ODI innings ever

I think the word "choke" is overused. Technically, it means getting nervous and throwing away a winning position against an opponent who has a mental edge over you and has beaten you several times in the past (see Pak. vs. India, '90s). Right now, Pakistan don't have a mental edge even against a potato. So, I'd call it complacency on SA's part rather than choking. And Razzaq's brilliance, obviously.

 

[Adamc]

Haha, ridiculous innings. Scored 63 of the last 65 runs ffs. Reminded me of this innings, but from an even worse situation and a successful chase this time obviously. Pretty much destroyed NZ every time he played them at the time.
