Agreed. McCullums analysis of why it was so good was spot on too. McMillan was made to look a bit simple with his 'how did he miss it ' viewSo that was a pretty great ball.
Didn't Maharaj just play all three home tests versus India, even though he didn't take his only wicket in the series until the 3rd test?To be brutal I don't really care about Patel... I`m talking about dropping Maharaj. Which is continuing to happen much to often in SA selection and at times getting support from cricket fans that I just don't understand.
that is brutal!To be brutal I don't really care about Patel... I`m talking about dropping Maharaj. Which is continuing to happen much to often in SA selection and at times getting support from cricket fans that I just don't understand.
He did. I think the last test was the first one in quite some time where we haven't played a spinner, which means it would be a little unfair to have a go at the selectors for not backing Maharaj, although the criticism of fans is justified.Didn't Maharaj just play all three home tests versus India, even though he didn't take his only wicket in the series until the 3rd test?
thanks thierry ennuiIt really disgusts me how when we lose NZ fans are all ‘well done South Africa’ this and ‘maybe we should have picked a spinner’ that, instead of simply acknowledging that our team are all terrible cowards and we as fans would be better off never having been born.

come on, at least YOU have soccer to turn to when things go bad.It really disgusts me how when we lose NZ fans are all ‘well done South Africa’ this and ‘maybe we should have picked a spinner’ that, instead of simply acknowledging that our team are all terrible cowards and we as fans would be better off never having been born.

Yeah, but there was also continuous talk of dropping him... mainly because we had a long tail and everybody wanted the extra batsmen at the expense of the spinner. I wanted the extra batsmen as well (actually I wanted Mulder playing) but not at Maharaj's expense. I`m glad they never dropped him.He did.

Well done Nostradamus.Yes the pitch is flat, but this NZ batting lineup has a fragile look to it especially without KW to calm the horses. Wouldn’t be at all surprised to see a bunch more frivolous top order dismissals in the second innings.
Those occasions you hate being right.Okay which other Kiwi cynics out there expect South Africa to do some soul searching, get some outdoor practice under their belts, and then do us in the next Test to deny us this elusive Test series win against them?
