Australia vs South Africa - Third Test

[y2j826]

I should have kept the faith in Kallis This is the 2nd time I've picked the wrong all rounder in this series.

kallis is not the player whom u can drop, thats why i again picked him in 3rd test as he was not successfull in 2nd test, so keep faith in him cuz he is one of the best all rounders in world.

I think you have too much faith in Jacques Kallis performance as you picked him as Captain.

But the game is over for me and also this FC competition.

Well Kallis bowling lately hasn't been great so that takes his all rounder status out a bit. I don't know about this test series as I haven't been watching it.

Kallis hit another fifty. I think I won't be even in the top ten now.

 

[aussie1st]

As long as you don't finish last then all is fine as there is only one thing I aim for (finishing in the top 3) Anything else like finishing in the top 5 or 10 doesn't matter to me as I get no money.

I am guessing you're back in Auckland now.

And I want to end always as high as possible. Just to have a feeling that my decisions of choosing the players in the team weren't that bad.

I hope Hayden and Ponting continue their assault. And may be Nel/kallis pick some wickets..

Nope still on holiday in Singapore But this is more family visiting than sight seeing so I have more time on the net

Well if I finish 4th I always think what if I choose that player. I just figure luck isn't on my side. Thats the best way to explain it

 

[ZexyZahid]

Well, Ponting just made his fifty. I would say someone who has Ponting as captain will win it. My trick of making Warne as captain, in a ground which favours spin, didn't work.

 

[aussie1st]

That was my thinking but with a guy that bats higher but ain't a great spinner.

I should have just kept my trend of picking Ponting or Hayden as captain.

 

[y2j826]

Australia wins quite easily as the game was in S. Africa's favour from start of the match.

What a performance by Ponting in his 100th test a century in each inning. The first player to do so. 120 and 143* mindblowing opening to new season.
Only gamerkid22 don't have him as bonus player or Captain otherwise everybody have him as either there captain or bonus player, except Prakash who did not have him in the team. (Don't know what he was thinking of droping a inform player)

I actually wanted to bet on that but just it was closed by then.

I think now the winner has been named, they can settle it. It's just a matter of clicking it.

Luckily I have Ponting as captain. *Fingers crossed nobody else has him*
