You have to be pretty blind to not find anything odd in two run outs within two consecutive overs

From Saffers ,I don't find it odd,they lost a match to Aus in Semis of a World cup by Donald getting out.And both of them were not involved in fixing.

Be honest here though did you even see a hint of pressure on both the sides even though they know this is do or die.
 
Worse still is that Pak is probably choking at the thought of potentially facing India again watching this unfold which will probably have a negative impact going in to tomorrows game.
 
Right from the start, RSA was trying its best to get run out, they succeeded. Any decent fielding side would have had them struggling much sooner.
 
They have to make 140 in the last 15 to give their bowlers a chance.

Wahab for all the shyte he bowls is still better and bowls 10 kms faster than the fastest Indian bowler.

Ya better in giving runs at 10 rpo . Who cares about speed when you are a spraygun and suprised that people some people hail him as second coming of wasim or waqar.
 
Need to try and play out all the overs now and get to 260. Give themselves something to defend and they do possess the best bowling attack in this tournament.

But I'm English! And we're doing well, and I don't care!

This evening I rang my best mate from Manchester, who I used to go to the cricket with.

After about twenty minutes I asked him if he was enjoying the Champions Trophy. He replied "You're a bit behind in Australia, aren't you? It finished last week - Real Madrid slaughtered Juventus".

In effect, you have a tournament being hosted in England for Indian TV, and almost no non-Asian English people even know it's happening.

Why do u care to comment if u don't care. Let we real cricket fans debate have banters also enjoy matches. No matter who wins or loses. Seen you most posts are only to degrade Ind players and team. Stop the hate, start enjoying sport and life. I too lived and worked in Melbourne, they do care Cricket but not like we Asian fans.
 
So it will be India vs Bangladesh mean India will play against England in final and England will choke just like S African. So both semi and final will be one-sided

On the same pitch pandya out bowled all the Pakistani bowlers... most pakistani batsman has no clue how to play pandya ..on his day pandya can take all 10 wickets of Pakistani batsman.
 
The only reason why Hashim Amla makes the ODI team for these tournaments is the unjust quota system. GOAT for scoring the most runs that don't equate to jack...
 
Well, I am not expecting much now from RSA. Buttt...Duminy can be dangerous. He needs to forget that he is paying for an ICC cup. and hecan change the scenario.

Thanks, but just like the Champions Trophy, I'm the only Englishman who knows we've just won the FIFA Under-20 World Cup!

I am a cricket fan just like many of you guys.
Sometimes it just doesnt look like players of international level are playing.

I dont wanna believe it but sometimes it looks odd to be honest.
 
Generally its hard to score faster in spin fast bowling. How often Afridi gave 100 runs in 10 overs?

Indian fast bowlers=Afridi spin

It's difficult to score 300 but not impossible!

the collapse has put SA back to defensive position. They are not in a position to attack. There are only 14 overs left. SA will do well to get 250 from here.
 
Heartbreaking that South Africa have to persist with the mediocrity of Duminy and Amla because of their racist government.

Keep playing your phaasssttt bowlers like wahab..We are happy with our trundlers..

Meanwhile Bumrah the trundler got another one :D
 
What a poor performance. Words arent enough to describe this. Shambles. Absolute shambles.

Amla is so massively overrated, he has inflated his stats by bashing windies and minnows, remove windies + minnows and his average falls to 45 with a strike rate of 86 with 14 centuies which are good but shows his real place, he's a good odi batsman but a league or 2 below odi greats
 
This guy controlled him so well until the end against Pakistan and now just decides to smash that out of here when this game is a quarter final 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
 
Ok....That was extremely out of Character !! WTH is going on !!!


Why did Morris do that ??
[MENTION=132916]Junaids[/MENTION] you might be on to something here !!

The South African decline has begun. If not for their racist government, the likes of Rossouw and other countless talented cricketers would be playing.

Yeah it seems like 250 is realistic total!!
 
SAF managed to choke once more - this time batting first, after 76 runs opening partnership. Always wanted them in SF, for a reason ..........:(
 
JaDed said:
Then why doesn't that door open during billaterals,seems like it always opens up during ICC tournaments.Do you question Netherland's football team?
Click to expand...

Because ICC tournaments are where the biggest prize is. Especially games with India.
 
Yep. Looking like a 200 All out, this.

Forever chokers. Shambles.

Yes thanks he tried to do that and gave a simple catch. He might not be like your phaast bowler wahab but can pick wickets even with weird action.
Click to expand...

Wahab is a piece of crap lived off that one over rated spell for 2 years bumrah is a much better bowler but tbh though that action might not be illegal but doesn't deserve to be an action of an international bowler.
