***Official*** South Africa In Australia

[pskov]

You do your country a disservice. I think Fletcher & Vaughan knew they had the players to knock the Aussies off at home.

Was talking about England's reaction post-Ashes victory there.

 

[pasag]

Close to the worst Australian innings I've seen, especially considering the series state and pitch.

Interesting bit from Mickey Arthur: "taking wickets is crucial in the one day game...it dries up the runs".

One for the Dicko archives.

Pinning my hopes on an devastating spell from Tait in front of his home crowd. *fingers crossed*

Funnier one that I thought was the Arthur dead rubber comment where SA will play their second XI against us.

It's like they are throwing that Aussie arrogance straight back at us. Gold.

3-0-45-0

Devastating.

Was poor, but notice you don't give an ounce of credit to SA, poor form tbh

Looking at Ponting's innings....damn he was looking beautiful (no homo).

Hasn't this been an ongoing problem with Australia ODI side for a while now, ever since last year' CB tri-series, Australia have been pretty regularly making good starts only for the middle-order to just later chuck it away, likes of Clarke and Mike Hussey and once or twice Symonds (in West Indies), are the one's who have been doing the repair job, but in their absence the weakness has been further exposed and taken advantage of.

Who cares if he says that, given we know exaclty where he would be coming from. Positive thinking is fine, only becomes a problem when you can't back it up, going by the recent evidence RSA have rights to be confident in their squad.

Not everyday you win a world championship though.

 

[Athlai]

Well to be fair Ponting and Mussey would be in a full strength side...

 

[pup11]

Prepare to be disappointed.

Yeah... i am pretty much prepared for it, but still hoping for some sort of freak comeback by the Aussies..

I predict a woeful performance from Johnson tonight, followed by an expensive Tait.

How was Marsh today? Did he bog us down?

13 off 9, which we would happily swap for 70 off 100 today
