2015 World Cup SA v WI Result | South Africa beat West Indies by a massive 257 run margin

[LegendAli]

Duminy is a big loss in middle order today for saf.

LOL since when? Duminy hasn't done anything worthy in the last few years.

 

[Justcrazy]

Amla on now

 

[FanofCricket]

against westindies he would have been good.... thats what jonty has been saying as well on PTV sports

Yeah he would have been.

 

[adnan yasin]

112-1 in 25 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

112 / 1

25 overs

 

[Hundred*]

SA have this in the bag.

 

[adnan yasin]

Perfect batting by South AFrica... in middle overs

 

[sherlock89]

So its official Amla plays well when it is required and only chokes against India .

 

[yasir]

Outfield is not as quick today as we have seen on MCG... Would it be like this for second half?

It has something to do with less boundaries today

Indeed.

since the zimbabwe game.

 

[adnan yasin]

now SAF are cutting lose.....

 

[JustAnotherFan]

Well done Faf. 50 up

 

[adnan yasin]

So its official Amla plays well when it is required and only chokes against India .

though his average batting second is 53 in past 3 years....but only 2 hundreds.

so as per his standards he actually bogged a bit while batting second his strike rate also comes down from 88% to 78%

 

[Hundred*]

SA cutting loose now.

 

[JustAnotherFan]

Let's see what Gayle can do

 

[Justcrazy]

bowling

 

[JustAnotherFan]

Anyway, i must go to work and have to now follow on cricinfo ... blah

enjoy it

 

[LeoRahi]

300+ on the cards.

 

[adnan yasin]

8 runs of the over without a boundary

 

[Hundred*]

320 easy.

 

[iHammad]

Amla 64 of 86, SR of 74, Mamoon is gearing up for another big response/party

 

[adnan yasin]

Anyway, i must go to work and have to now follow on cricinfo ... blah

enjoy it

Focus on your job SA will win big

 

[yasir]

Gayle is bowling like school boys in nets, lots of nothing half trackers.

When we play, if bowler bowls like that, won't get over in match.

Amla struggled against pace and bounce, and I backed my statement with good numbers. His record in Australia and against Aussie bowlers screams that fact. I put a lot of facts there, and I am in no mood to do that again.

I don't feel that deleting the thread was right at all. But it is Pakpassion, so who am I to complain.

He has a poor record against Australia simple as that home and away. Even in Zimbabwe he was poor, and there was no bounce in those conditions.
One opposition hardly defines logic.
Hence I said let's look at performances in other conditions which are suitable for bowlers namely England and NZ.

Even if we stick just to SA a guy averaging 37 in 17 matches (which is a good record In SA conditions against good attacks) is not a struggle, when the next guy with at least 8/6 innings averages in the low 40's.

Smith had a decent career and averaged 39 as per criteria, did he struggle against pace and bounce? The guy chased 400 mind you.
I remember that thread and I analysed those numbers, it was rubbish thread really.

 

[adnan yasin]

brilliant shot... over extra cover



dollies for two set batsman... gayle and samuels

 

[adnan yasin]

WI is not doing anything to get a wicket here

 

[sherlock89]

Another one sided match coming up.

 

[yasir]

What was that by Du, free wicket on nothing ball.

[adnan yasin]

extra bounce for gayle..and he got his man

FAF gone

 

[sherlock89]

two places fails again

 

[soso_killer]

Jut stay in your crease and play normal shots Faf what were you doing?
What a terrible way to get out, missed out on a confidence boosting ton.

 

[Anfield]

Devilliers thought process really puzzles me at times. Again he has reserved himself for onslaught instead controlling the game from hereon.

 

[soso_killer]

Thats out Amla gone, horrible cricket this.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

that arm of gayle looks questionable a bit

 

[adnan yasin]

Oh man .. double wicket for gayle

Amla gone

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Damn. Gayle bowling well. But Amla just missed a straight one there

 

[Anfield]

Amla throwing it away after the hard work.

 

[desi_launda]

Amla bhai

 

[adnan yasin]

ABCD now coming to bat

 

[Saurav]

Thats out Amla gone, horrible cricket this.

Don't worry you will get 250 at least and that will be enough

 

[sherlock89]

Oh no

 

[desi_launda]

[MENTION=134240]Electron[/MENTION] can Amla play turn and bounce?

 

[jattafridi]

Legend in

 

[iHammad]

Mamoon just did some fireworks

 

[Buffet]

Crap, two quick wickets. AB needs to bat till the last few overs.

 

[adnan yasin]

Last 10 overs SA scored runs 60 runs.... but they lost 2 crucial wickets

2 new batsman at the crease now

 

[Buffet]

Don't worry you will get 250 at least and that will be enough

280+ should be the target. 250 is too low even after losing 2 wickets here.

 

[Anfield]

WI on this can't chase over 225 on this pitch.

 

[FanofCricket]

Gayle on fire with the bowl.

 

[Anfield]

WI can't chase over 225 on this pitch.

 

[FanofCricket]

here comes rossow.

 

[Hundred*]

SA can still set up 300

 

[Saurav]

280+ should be the target. 250 is too low even after losing 2 wickets here.

Ofcourse I was just talking about WI batting

 

[Buffet]

Devilliers thought process really puzzles me at times. Again he has reserved himself for onslaught instead controlling the game from hereon.

Yah, I was expecting him to come at number 4 since only 20 overs were left. Doesn't matter because he had to come few balls later.

 

[soso_killer]

[MENTION=134240]Electron[/MENTION] can Amla play turn and bounce?

Actualu can he play a straight one. There was no turn there.

 

[Buffet]

Ofcourse I was just talking about WI batting

I don't feel safe with 250 even against WI. Look at all minnows scoring 250+ so many times and we have 4 bowlers today.

 

[FanofCricket]

gayle bowling well.

 

[Electron]

[MENTION=134240]Electron[/MENTION] can Amla play turn and bounce?

Pace and bounce made sure that Amla didn't score freely, and spin made use of that pressure created.

 

[sherlock89]

Amla is such a selfish player I didn't know , Got out just when He shouldn't have. So he doesn't care about SA just about his own average and record . I am very disappointed . When the going gets tough Amla gets going(back to the pavilion that is)

 

[sherlock89]

SA can still set up 300

Only if they dont lose any more wickets.

 

[yasir]

This is Sidney spinners has role to play, Imran would be key for SA later today..

ABD staying till end, that's what we want. I hope so

159-3 in 32 overs

 

[soso_killer]

If AB stays there we'll get 300 easily with Miller still to come.

 

[FanofCricket]

wide ball.

 

[Hundred*]

400 if ABD stays.

 

[FanofCricket]

good over from gayle.

 

[desi_launda]

330 would be a good score,WI wont chase that

 

[adnan yasin]

 

[Saffer_XIII]

The west Indies fielders don't like diving at the boundary.

 

[FanofCricket]

rossow on fire.

 

[pacesensation]

with Imran Tahir the leggie playing

I think 250-270 is enough to beat wi

 

[zubair007]

Russouw looks to be a good batsman.

 

[FanofCricket]

 

[Buffet]

Roussouw is playing very well here. Needs to keep doing it for the next 10-12 overs.

 

[Anfield]

And should anchor it till 45th over before going all crazy.

 

[soso_killer]

Amla is such a selfish player I didn't know , Got out just when He shouldn't have. So he doesn't care about SA just about his own average and record . I am very disappointed . When the going gets tough Amla gets going(back to the pavilion that is)

Lol, what? Amla likes to play aggressively upfront during the powerplay and pick singles during the middle overs with an odd boundary here and there.
He was willing to bare the brunt for his team today on a slow and two paced deck.
What are you mumbling about are you even watching the game?

 

[Buffet]

If AB stays there we'll get 300 easily with Miller still to come.

We should get 300+ now with 17 overs to go.

 

[adnan yasin]

Really like this player Rossow.. i hope he becomes the permanent member of the side

C'mon man, appreciate a good knock. He played quite well IMO.
