*Official* Double Match Day - South Africa v England (27th Sept) - Page 3

Uppercut · 27-09-2009, 06:46 AM

When these sides met in the World T20, South Africa put in what was possibly the best all-round performance in the field I've ever seen.

Doesn't look like happening to day from the first few overs.

GIMH · 27-09-2009, 06:47 AM

Fielding is a completely different art in twenty20 though

Picked England to upset South Africa at the start of the tournament. Have a feeling England might have used up their upset on Sri Lanka now though, so will have to pick South Africa for this.

Edit: Of course it would be far more amusing if South Africa choked and were knocked out

. Would serve them right for all that "it's destiny" talk.

Yes on the evidence of this tournament to date they have declined a bit as a ODI team.

Love Strauss so much heart... for an English player.

Everyone who keeps using the C word: expand your vocabulary FFS. At least be creative about it if you feel the need to bring us down.

I've heard loads of words used to describe Graeme Smith, to be fair. Some of which are indeed c-words.

Batting powerplay taken now, itstl, good to see we're using it well :|

Shah you are going to be a star in Wellington.

Scaly piscine · 27-09-2009, 07:19 AM

England's first wicket a total freebie... who'd have thought.

Kyle · 27-09-2009, 07:22 AM

Fantastic catch. 2 down

GIMH · 27-09-2009, 07:23 AM

doh

Pratters · 27-09-2009, 07:23 AM

Out! South Africa on top. YAY!

and whenever I watch the cricket, a wicket seems to fall. First, four kiwi wickets, then I switched channels and Vettori picked a wicket and now I switch channels and Kallis picks up Strauss.
