As sad as it maybe, there is a slight bittersweet emotion here with all of these soft English dismissals. Totally predicted this and packed my fantasy side with SA bowlers with the exception of Petersen.

Wow, is it possible for England to be out of the QF?
I still think they'll make it but this doesn't help their NRR, assuming they do go and lose this.

Not much with the ball as well!

He is simply not an international cricketer. Alongside fellow Sussex never been Luke Wright.

Well, maybe if England hadn't tried reviewing no-balls we might've had a proper look.

The only weakness some say SA have, is that there is no lower-order hitter like Boucher, Albie or Dave Miller but to me they can be a luxury in the sub-continent because it can be difficult to come in and strike the ball out the ground when its turning or theres reverse swing.
Manipulating the ball in the middle overs and attacking cleverly is more important. That is why JP and Faf is a solid middle order.

Thought that live but replays say no.
The decision would have stood had it been reviewed.

If they lose to the West Indies or Bangladesh, they're almost certainly out. Point against India could still save them.

Wouldn't have mattered as it turns out but your point is well made.

Think some serious questions need to be asked about how England managed to take a squad with the likes of Wright, Prior, Yardy, Tremlett and Tredwell. FFS way to make a joke about the whole tournament.
