24th Match - Ireland v South Africa

[viriya]

Stage set for 400.

 

[ankitj]

This is going to end badly for Ireland

 

[Zinzan]

Holy **** de Kock was the worst pick ever for my WC draft.

How many more times does the guy have to fail before AB considers taking the gloves back I wonder?

His last 5 ODI scores have been; 4, 7, 7, 12 & 1

Only reason he's still playing is probably cos Duminy is injured.

 

[Daemon]

If Amla gets out now his average will fall..

insane

Round 1 pick

Can't believe you actually picked this guy ahead of Baz.

I know, I wanted a keeper early & at that stage was almost certain SA would make the final vs. Aust at the very least. I'm now not nearly as sure since India, NZ & SL are all putting their hand up.

Also, de Kock was averaging close to 50 with a SR of 90 before this slump...

Minnow-basher.

 

[Riggins]

That's probably why the South African attack gets rated so highly...

 

[kiwiviktor81]

Ireland don't even look close to taking a wicket here.

 

[Zinzan]

Minnow-basher.

Hardly... his last 5 innings have been against the following ferocious bowling attacks; West Indies (twice), India, Zim & now Ireland... So he can't even score against minnows..

 

[Riggins]

Am worried Ireland successfully using this review just brings de Villiers closer to getting a hit.

Yeah I need Amla to top score and it seems like the only way that's going to happen is if these two bat til the 43rd over.

Well he started with 3 tons vs Ind.

 

[viriya]

You know you're ****ed when Amla is going ham.

 

[Zinzan]

Well he started with 3 tons vs Ind.

Also scored well against NZ in the short series late last year IIRC.. that including the likes of Boult, McClenaghan etc. Another reason I thought he might score well in this part of the world.

 

[anil1405]

AB with his Amla mask on.

 

[Zinzan]

Round 1 pick

Can't believe you actually picked this guy ahead of Baz.

By the way anil, could have been worse...I could have picked Shane Watson as my bonus-point player

 

[Burgey]

So good to see a record held by that imposter Kohli taken from him so quickly.

 

[cnerd123]

Urrgghhh 400 on the cards

 

[Tec15]

Don't worry, Ireland will chase this down. They win more when they chase you know!
