Cos he's the only guy the Aussies can boast about.
Yeah, a 10fer in SA is nothing...Had Pakistans batting clicked, we would have won that. He also outbowled Swann at his best a few times in 2010 in England but it wasn't seen to be that good cos of the cheats dismantling pretty much everyone

Yeah, has started to deliver as soon as the pressure is off South Africa.
Scoring a potential hundred with a lead of 177 in the bag already, must be one of the "useless" knocks you dislike isn't it?
Lyon imo is incredibly overrated. He's been gifted wickets and has earned probably 1 only. He can be top class if he played more in the SC and pull off a Graeme or Monty.
He's never had the chance to but he's a line and length bowler which means he could succeed

I admit Amla would be far less criticized if his fan club stopped playing the religion card.
I personally enjoy when he doesn't play well because the disappointment of the folks that refer to him as "Amla bhai" is quite entertaining.
You're very stereotypical and generalise based a few posts from posters, then you class yourself as logical in your observation. Maybe there supporters who think he is a good player based on watching the matches etc
What is this?
I haven't watched the matches to say anything though, just saying you generalise
Has he played well below his 2010-2012 standard for a long time now.
Merely looking at scorecards isn't enough
When did I say ALL of them are like that?
Comprehensionail fail
Reread my post.
I clearly state THOSE fans WHO play the religion card.

Xoib, how did you miss out on that brilliant century that he scored in that 99 all-out, 47 all-out game? Definitely no pressure there.

You are trapped again by sir mamoon you know how? this thread was created on the point that amla lost his test form (he is still scoring in odi matches). Now he is playing a brilliant Test innings to prove he is still class and mamoon diverted the topic to ICC events and odi matches what a clever kid! he will go round and round to prove his points
What mistake?
Yes he has one last chance which proves that I am not a hater.
If he plays brilliantly in the next World Cup and helps South Africa win it takes them really far into the tournament, I will change my opinion and consider him an ODI great.
) Where did the ODI great come from? He doesn't need your approval, neither do I nor 99.99% of this world.
You said he wasn't a good player under pressure and having absolutely no proof to back it up, picked on his decent WC record, not realizing that Kohli has done worse.
