2nd Match ODI: Australia v South Africa at Harare Aug 27, 2014

[Wato]

That is a very annoying way to get out but these early wickets are going to make it very hard for SA to accelerate at the back end of the innings.

Umpires called over everyone get ready for the next over, umpire realises he's f**ked up so everyone rested for one ball and DeKock skies a sitter of a catch to deep square :lol:

 

[Horrie Is God]

Classic..

After all that, we have to go back & bowl the final ball of the over because the umps can't count, & De Kock goes after skying one..

 

[hineyrulz]

SA doing it easy

Will win by 5-6 wickets, with 3-4 overs to spare

Goodnight

:lol: You are the best i have ever seen PB.

 

[jargan83]

South Africa 2/157 off of 26 overs.

Doing it easy at the moment

 

[hineyrulz]

Can't believe they didn't go in without a recognised spinner :crazy:

 

[8Ball]

Show with the doosra. That bag of tricks is getting bigger.

 

[BunniesMan]

I obviously think Hughes should have come into the team. But not for Lyon. Almost anybody else in this XI. But not bloody Lyon. Stupidity from the selectors.

 

[jargan83]

Aussies are catching like spastics as another chance goes down.

 

[lockyno1]

No Hughes shouldn't be in the team you fruitloop. We became number 1 the minute we dumped the turnip! This is what happens when you have an opener who let the might of Tahir have 15 balls for 3 runs!

He scored 50 at almost run a ball. He is far down on our list of problems.

Whilst stuffing the innings by not hitting Dumminy and Tahir..3 off 15 is a joke!

 

[hineyrulz]

Gee that De Villiers bloke can bat a bit.

Fancy not taking a spinner into a game on a used pitch where it spun the first time it was used.

 

[Timbo]

Haddin did a good job at the top in game one, why change a winning formula?

Needed Lyon last night.

 

[TheParraboy]

SA doing it easy

Will win by 5-6 wickets, with 3-4 overs to spare

Goodnight

Cheers..

:lol: You are the best i have ever seen PB.

Always good to get early season form underway

 

[TheParraboy]

We are obviously trialing and erroring this series

its a nothing series, let south Africa beat their chests and give Hughes a game or two

we will pull their pants down in the world cup as per usual.....without Hughes

 

[Twizzle]

Not enough bowlers.

 

[jargan83]

Disappointing to lose and I would have liked a win but TPB is correct with the fact we are trialling a few players in what is effectively a nothing series and there is a lot of water to go under the bridge before the World Cup.

No spinner really cost us last night.

 

[GW.]

Why is it a nothing series?

what gives it its lack of worth?
because we aint playig england for the 15th time in 2 years?


I see a tri series involving the top 2 teams in the world, battling -in a neutral venue- for definitive rights on who is number 1 in the world.

 

[vvvrulz]

I second that actually, any ODI between Australia and South Africa isn't a "nothing" match at all
And what's all the business about trialling players? Barring one or two wasn't that a full strength Australia?
