Shalln't be watching that then!

Credit to the west indies batsmen though, theyve put some gloss over what was again a shocking bowling performance by the visitors.. And finally got some interest going this season...

Nothing is more pleasurable than RSA getting kicked.

I hope it happens more often in NZ and on the subcontinent later this year.

I fully expect you to be very disappointed then.

NZ v SA will be a close series, and I would take SA to win it, but even if NZ win, it won't be a "kicking".

Nothing wrong with thinking this! But as an Aussie wouldnt you rather see England or NZ getting kicked?

They're all pretty equal. But we have beaten England & N.Z. so often, and while it is still good to see them get beaten by whoever, it is just as good and probably more satisfying to see South Africa get thrashed (as it doesn't happen all that often).

Hmm windies have 10 wickets in hand with only 13 overs to go and they are prodding the ball around for singles.
They should be playing every ball like its the last.
They cant seem to do anything right.
I think they will pay for this.

Wow, what a six by Gayle. Once again I have forgotten the game was on today. *shakes head* Lucky I'm up late tonight with work so I can watch the rest of it. Looks like the West Indies have batted like champions again, this time its Gayle. :D

I'm glad I caught the end of that. Powell and Gayle went crazy at the end, Gayle gets 152, brilliant stuff. Powell hit a leg glance pitching on off stump for six, quite incredible.

Well the WI bowling line up definitely have something to defend here, I'm hoping they can dig deep and hold SA levelling the series. It'll be a good result for WI to end what was looking to be a poor tour.

I think the the problem for the Windies now is.....can they get Kallis out early?
If they can, then are in with a chance......

You just knew that the fielding would let us down. I don't mind losing, but the fielding in that final over was just embarrassing.

Watching Chanderpaul bat it is amazing he doesn't try opening in tests. He obviously likes batting with Gayle and it would solve some of the West Indies batting problems. He has all the shots, a great temprement and experience, the only thing that may be a problem with opening in test is his defence, but I'm sure that is something that can be rectified.

If Chanderpaul opens in Tests then there will be a hole in the middle order and I don't see many really jumping up to fill it. The opening spot has Hinds, Devon Smith and possibly Imran Jan.

I didn't see any of the South African series, but why am I not surprised that it was Kallis that won the game for South Africa? What a series he has had, both ODI's and Tests.

I suppose I shouldn't blame a South African for trying to black out the memory of the World Cup, but come on! These 2 teams had a better game then and a better game in the last Champions Trophy or whatever it's called.

I think this probably beats the WC game because the WC game was (should have) been WI all the way until Klusener went on the rampage, whereas this was always in the balance.

The CT.. was that when Dillon's brain switched off in the last over?
