Just another dreadful performance from Parnell. Always looks totally out of his depth and just falls to pieces under pressure. I know the Saffers have a quota system in place but when you have De Lange available, surely logic suggests that you pick your best players.
 
Not sure why Saffers keep selecting him...

He has always been expensive.

SA need to be replace him with De Langa.
 
He should have not played the WC. McLaren should have played.

Mclaren is not much better, De Lange should have been the man at 90mph and built like a lock forward in rugby, he would have been a handful on these pitches.
 
He's the South African Anwar Ali. Only difference is that he can bowl faster than 125 kph.
 
He blows hot and cold all the time...whilst i like him, his inconsistentsy is hard to defend...

Cant see him getting selected again
 
He has never been anywhere near being the worst bowler in international cricket. Was always a decent but not great odi bowler.
 
Parnell has pace. Decent bowler. Bowls mainly in the 140's. Gets carried by the short ball and gets tonked off the short ball, bowls too many bad length deliveries. A bit like Ishant Sharma
 
Waleed Parnell is doing very well. Hoping for a big CT from him.
 
Waleed may not be the best bowler around but he's nowhere near the worst. Seems to be getting a good run in the side now too which I think will help him finallly realise his potential.
