This is hardly choking. Finn and Anderson have just been really, really good. And of course Kallis shouldn't be back in the pavilion either.

it's not really choking if you get a couple of questionable umpiring calls and a great a couple of great deliveries...it's just a typical SA loss.
Yeah this ain't choking. Amla aside, they've been pretty unlucky with the dimissals (though Petersen was lolstupid and probably wouldn't have been overturned. Actually definitely not overturned since the knowledge of the appropriate law is questionable in this case)

Meh, ball hitting glove that is not holding bat should be out anyway. STopid rule - adds nothing to the game apart from making it more complicated. Rod Tucker just very progressive with his decision making ;)
Well that's a strange opinion. Should it be out if we catch you after hitting your helmet?

You know, if Peterson had reviewed it, the umpire would've probably paid more attention to that law and thus given Kallis not out as well.

Peterson is to blame for both wickets imo.

Smith unlucky, how he middled it?

Oh and Vic we lost that match, just goes to show KP wasn't that good anyway.....

I don't think Finn has been that good tbh. Bowles a peach to get Amla but I don't think he's bowled much better than Broad for the most part tbh, and he's been merde.

It is a tad unlucky tbf, you normally expect bottom edges like that to go straight to ground. Definitely out, but it's an unusual dismissal.

Yes but Tucker clearly didn't miss the hesitancy shown by Petersen and should have been more aware if the situation rises again

Well, there's about the constant play and misses he had, Jimmeh deserved to get him in every way.

That "decision" is just utterly ****ing dire. Do umpires actually know the laws of the game? Or are they not that relevant anymore
