Damn was hoping for another upset :(

DHAWAN!! Gotta get Parnell that flog off now. Bowl the big 3 more often, and Tahir. Duminy bowling well too

Parnell will cost SA the World Cup no doubt. He is so bad. They are better off playing a batter who can roll down a few overs and get the 10 between duminy...

AFEV · February 22, 2015, 06:25:58 PM

He is terrible. Went at nearly 10 an over which is why India was able to make 300.
What a frickin plow haha.

Yeah can see Behardien going straight back in the side. McLaren is their other option for that spot.

What was up with Philander? Only 4 overs. Injury?

*cough* something stuck in my throat..

PowerBug · February 22, 2015, 09:36:00 PM

India have done decently.

Ringo · February 22, 2015, 09:50:59 PM

tanked early but peaking in defence of their World Cup defence - are they dark horses.

SA 5th bowler will hurt them as the comp goes on and lord help them if one of their 4 go down.

AFEV · February 22, 2015, 09:59:59 PM

Pretty terrible showing from South Africa, just need to get that final bowling piece to click and they'll be back around that mark that made them the favourite.
India has played 2 good games, but I'd say still a ways off even a dark horse label. Many of their wickets tonight came from the mistakes of the batsmen they bowled to, their bowling is just so weak.
Their batting is quite solid albeit inconsistent, the only hope they have of making it far is if they have the fortune to bat first and make 300+ every match.
In my opinion at least.

PowerBug · February 22, 2015, 10:09:11 PM

Yeah I still don't rate India. South Africa are still very strong. AB de Villiers needs to realise that he is the 5th bowler that South Africa need, then they will fly again :P

AFEV · February 22, 2015, 10:18:07 PM

Would legitimately not be surprised if AB turned out to be a triple threat. :P
