Semi Finals

Choking implies an action by yourself, throttling implies a violent, brutal act by another entity.

Sounds like what is happening to me

Like now?

How true !!!!!

Haha, yea. I'm sure Smith is quite amused.

So what score would Ponting be happy chasing from here on?

 

[pasag]

Horrendous wide from Tait.

Looks like Fiery's avatar isn't going to be changing any time soon

dont you have to be in a somewhat winning position to choke, I dont have words to describe this. Smith deserves to be sacked and Kallis deserves the Martyn treatment for their shots.

At the start of a semi when u win the toss on a good deck - you ARE in a winning position, or at least in a position to win it as much as the other mob. Not over yet - if there's a decent partnership here they may get something to bowl at on a (hopefully for them) slightly up and down wicket.

Gibbs might "edge" his way to a 50 here.

To a losing cause unless someone in the Proteas bowling attack takes a double hattrick and another a hattrick.....or if someone takes a triple hattrick or if three people get a hattrick each at regular intervals !

South Africa to reach 200.

120 is looking good at the moment!

Choking implies an action by yourself, throttling implies a violent, brutal act by another entity.

Sadly an all-too-real distinction in this World Cup.

 

[pasag]

All out for 105 imo.

If Sri Lanka somehow manage to beat this Aus side in the final.. I would think it a bigger upset than Ire v Pak.

The way Aussies have played in this WC, that sounds just about right!

C'mon Watto!!!

 

[simmy]

Lol what a pie from Watson.

 

[adharcric]

Gibbs to make up for that WC.

Can't have it both ways, either let Kallis play his game, or accept the fact that he'll be dismissed such as how he was vs. Ban, NZ, WI and now Aus playing those type of shots.

Time to bring George!!

 

[Lostman]

he had just hit the previous ball for a 4.
