Cricket season

Cheers CM. I assume thats for the NZ series? In that case, I would NOT take Morkel to the Champions trophy.

looking at this squad the batsman will have to win most of the games as i have no confidence in the bowlers,except tahir.our batting is exceptionally strong and a top 6 of de kock,amla,faf,ab,duminy,miller will scare any opposition attack.just my thoughts.

i thought that the Proteas missed a trick there. 450 was on the cards but they batted to slowly between overs 24-39 only just over 100 in 16 overs. De Kock is going to end up with around 50 one day centuries and Amla has come back into form at the right time.

I agree de Kock looks like he gets bored at times

While I will never get tired of the Protea's winning... I am relieved that this series is concluding... let SA dominate the Aussies like this and its still watchable as you know they are playing great cricket, but this Sri Lankan team is dismal... really boring stuff...

this very same sri lankan team will give any team a game on their pitches. They hammered the Aussies a few months ago in Sri Lanka.

I wont argue that, I just cant help but feel let down a spectator when you watch an international match/series and the very same team continue to throw their wickets away every game. Not one of the top 5 (besides maybe Dickwella) have once shown a little bit of dogfuck at the crease. I can count on one hand how many of them have gotten out to a good ball. They just consistantly give their wickets away.

true, well the positive is that the Proteas did not their game drop. Winning breeds confidence, whats that 14/14 now?

Wow, im glad AB gave Berhardien a bowl there. Just to put to bed any thought of him playing as an "all rounder" in the champions trophy :lol:

Either 14 or 15? Know they broke the record of the most consecutive home wins. Formerly held by Aus.

And a MASSIVE positive, is it sounds like your "mate" motor mouth is not going to NZ to commentate :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
