WC2007: Super 8

[themuel1]

SA bowling not looking so "1-Dimensional anymore"....

I think its more England. England could be playing my dad's team (off over 40 somthings) and would probably be as badly off!

I can't believe England haven't even tried to change the order of batting. They have done nothing to try and reverse the slump. WE miss Tresco (no matter what anyone says about him not deserving to play for England). Saj Mahmood I don't have any words that could describe him that wouldn't get me banned. I'll use waste of space as an understatement. Hopefully, when Jones is back, Saj will be out.

Aparantly, the England batsmen look dogy even in the nets.....

The only good thing to come out of this tournament is Ravi.

Let's see if the Saffies live up to their Choking reputation!

Man What Wrong with England in this Match?

Man What Wrong with England in this Match?

This match? Outside of England (we have on occasions been quite good in England) we have been an awful ODI side for a few years now. Quite frankly we don't deserve to go through and the fact we've got this close to going through proves the super 8 stage is crap. Should've been quarter finals with the top sides in each group playing second place side.

I don't understand why Smith took Hall of the bowling attack. He was bowling good and taking wickets. Does he actually want England to score runs?

You guys say England are so bad, but these guys beat Australia in Australia for crying out loud! Now how do you explain that?

Just one of those runs where everything went for them. Australia certainly didn't play as well as they have through the WC so far.

They got lucky. A couple of players excelled (i.e. Collingwood........erm...).

England need people to attack at the start of the innings, look at the Aussies for christ sake. Have to do it a different way though don't we....

ravi bopara is still batting I think he is Englands future.

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Hall got the last wicket with his final ball . his first 5wiclket haul great preformance by Proteas

 

[Leicester Fox]

we were gay but we can win this,Jimmy and Monty and Freddie and saj! C'arn lads! Well if we do lose its not all bad,hopefully this will mean Broad gets a game against the Windies and we can see the future of English cricket in action!

154 is a easy score for South Africa
look like England are Out Of it.

 

[BigCrickNan]

If I could show my full opinion on that batting performance...well there would be a lot of these **** involved.

South Africa did bowl well yes, but we should be able to get 200 at least, minnows are the teams who scraped up 150, not test nations.

 

[Turbanation]

this is just embrasing now tbh

 

[Will_NA]

that innings was depressing. Bopara should bat up the order, maybe even open.
