'Dale Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Oh Yeah, its gonna be good. Dont know why the Proteas always struggle at world cups? Good question, Lexx. For this T20, I reckon:The tour to England took a lot out of the key players (Amla, Kallis, AB, Steyntjie, etc.)ABs captaincy against Pakistan (poor decision making)Death bowling skills inconsistent (Yorkers), andA few selection blunders (Levi, Tsotsobe vs Parnell). Hmmm... Lexx 1
Christie Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Imo they did not choke even once, to choke you have to lose from a good position. They were just piss poor mostly, except for a bright moment here or there. Some things that I think went wrong:*loooong tour of England, then heading to SL without a break.*The batting is not sorted, by a long way. Levi, Kallis, Amla and De Villiers were off their best. Albie Morkel must play, but as a batsman. He needs to go in ahead of Behardien. Levi could work, down the order if the ball is older.*Imo they should have given Tahir a try. He was deadly in India during the last WC. With all his variation, a turning pitch and pressure on the batsmen to score, he could be much more dangerous than in tests. On faster pitches, with less turn, the team may have done better, but for this tournament, they were simply not good enough. Sepia 1
jcza Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 And thanks to the preacher for wasting so many balls, I might not have to buy beer after all... Say when & where we're drinking beer, I am buying obviously (please bring the Aussie gal with)
Eddy Gordo Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Aaggh, I havent watched cricket in a while simply because of the poor selection of players. I watched yesterdays game and I cant believe that someone like AB is still in the team. It is by time that they drop him, get a proper wicket keeper. He only performs when his job is on the line. Then there are a few dinosaurs like smith, kallis, and morkel. They just seem to be going through the paces. Players with more heart are needed in the side!!
'Dale Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Kiss & make up within the ECB.... Axed England batsman Kevin Pietersen is set to play international cricket again after reaching an agreement with the England and Wales Cricket Board, the ECB said on Wednesday.
TNT1 Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Kiss & make up within the ECB.... Axed England batsman Kevin Pietersen is set to play international cricket again after reaching an agreement with the England and Wales Cricket Board, the ECB said on Wednesday. After their dismal T20 showing, can they do without him?
liamsI Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 AB is out of Champions League T20 and more importantly is a doubtful for the tour to Australia.
Christie Posted October 5, 2012 Posted October 5, 2012 Aus vs. WI:Now that is what a choke looks like!
