New Zealand v South Africa | 3rd QF | WC'11 | Mirpur | 25/3/11

[Afridi_Fan]

Just 3 more wickets to complete THE CHOKE.

 

[Looney]

SOUTH AFRICA PACK YOUR BAGS


and i had Ryder in my fantasy no Williamson removed him last night Guptill is there too but he scored 1

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

saffer defo chokrs now.

 

[NJamal]

S.Africa chocking again in the knock out stage

 

[Britstani]

OUT!!!!! besti man besti!!

 

[Munna]

ok fine .. oram is their finest bowler in world cups ...


but still this wasn't expected

 

[Wasim_Waqar]

dear oh dear, the choke is on

and Bob Willis said SA would win by 7 or 8 wickets. I hope England win tomorrow- give us one Western team and one Asian team in the final

 

[Robert]

Choke-tastic!

Mr Saffer mate in the office is having kittens.....

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

i predicted nz will win.

 

[farsiddiqui]

Is this it, then? Another choke job to talk about till the next big tournament.

 

[adit_sh]

SA has never won a Knockout match in any worldcup??? thats strange

 

[Sledger]

Steyn the new man looooool.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

robert.lool

 

[Sledger]

Shot!

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

444

 

[Wasim_Waqar]

Honestly did not expect this. SA have been SOOO strong and NZ apart from v Pakistan, nothing special.

But they need 86 to win and it's going to be tough from here. This could be very close, even still

 

[the saint]

what a performance by Jacob Oram. Y in the world was this guy dropped? his catch turned the match and now he's doing the business with the ball. Great reward for a cricketer battered with injury problems. Gutted for the South Africans.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

steyn can bt

 

[Sledger]

That's how you play!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Could be another World cup semi final for kiwis! They have never reached a WC final though!

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

One legend out Punter, another legend will take the next flight home
2nd semi final another legend's farewell

this worldcup has been graveyard of the legends

 

[the saint]

I hope RSA comes back here. Take the damn power play to build some momentum.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

kiwis know that until plesis there saf have a chance

 

[ace4rmspace]

Whats Symcox saying can someone pleaaaaase update me? I've jurned the volume up but no one is saying anything ...

 

[BaaliSoda]

Great Combo Doull and Symcox in comm box now.

AWESOME


*(Sarcasm)

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Faf

 

[adnan yasin]

nice drive ..

 

[Afridi_Fan]

81 needed in 90.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Oram bowling a very good spell here!

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

imagine englad pak wc final.

 

[BaaliSoda]

FAF plays a superb cover drive for 4

 

[Munna]

looking at the trends, this world cup has been full of Besti-full matches ...

england's performances against smaller teams
bangladesh against WI
NZ beating Pak
India tie with Eng
Pak beating Aus
Aus getting knocked out
WI against Pak
SA today perhaps will add to the list....

and now what is not expected is .. India getting knocked out!
so lets be optimistic and pray the trend continues inshAllah

 

[Looney]

I hope Steyn and F du Plesis develop a good relationship here

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

44

 

[Sledger]

This will be a close one. Du Plessis wicket needed for NZ otherwise SA will win.

 

[the saint]

God might be giving one back to NZ for what happened against Bangladesh.

 

[ZenBowman]

Can Steyn and DuPlessis be the heroes here?

 

[NeVerMind]

Faf's smile reminds me of YK

 

[the saint]

I hate Symcox. He's an a....hole. Why didn't they Shaun Pollock? He's probably the most sensible SA commentator the rest are homers.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

mcculum on

 

[IAJ]

Du Plesis better win this match for SA, there was never a run there when AB was run out.

 

[the saint]

FAf is much more gifted than YK. He has more shots.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

saffer are overated

 

[Strike!]

Very saddened for SA fans, Can't believe they have to deal with this everytime.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

3 dots

 

[Looney]

It is funny nobody takes NZ seriously as cricketers and that works in their favour , particularly in World Cups

 

[IAJ]

I hate Symcox. He's an a....hole. Why didn't they Shaun Pollock? He's probably the most sensible SA commentator the rest are homers.

Lance Klusener is sensible as well and funny too.

 

[Poison]

SA winning here would be good for my bank account

 

[BaaliSoda]

One legend out Punter, another legend will take the next flight home
2nd semi final another legend's farewell

this worldcup has been graveyard of the legends

You forgot to add another legend who missed out reaching quarters ashraful ?)

 

[Sledger]

Guptill saves more runs than he scores.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

saffer need to stop choking

 

[Afridi_Fan]

80 needed in 84.

 

[MHZ]

I don't feel so bad about losing to Kiwis in our match now.

 

[ace4rmspace]

SA winning here would be good for my bank account

Allah karey haar jaye phir! Ganda bacha!

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

nz have won this for them. nearly

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

South Africa,Pakistan and England are terribly overrated.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

poisonn, gambling is haraam.

 

[the saint]

Woodcock and McCullum have spent a lot of time in the gym

 

[Britstani]

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

You forgot to add another legend who missed out reaching quarters ashraful ?)

those are associate players

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

mw why pakistan

 

[BaaliSoda]

Legendary WOODCOCK into the attack

WIDE

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

South Africa 142/7 (36.0 ov)

 

[MHZ]

How can u say Pak are over-rated...no one gave us a chance to get past QFs...inluding myself.

 

[the saint]

I actually think NZ underperforms. Taylor, Ryder, Guptill, McCullum are not ordinary or average cricketers.

 

[Munna]

zaltzman:

SA wanted to shed their chokers tag. They look like a lost suitcase from a Choke Airways flight, passed around every airport in the world.

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[Afridi_Fan]

South Africa,Pakistan and England are terribly overrated.

What the hell has Pakistan done to be over-rated?

 

[Sledger]

Steyn batting well.

 

[Amjid Javed]

S.A would be a laughing stock again if they crash out here!

 

[hur rizvi]

Steyn is timing the ball well ...

this partnership is last hope for SAF

 

[Looney]

Very saddened for SA fans, Can't believe they have to deal with this everytime.

fixers

 

[Afridi_Fan]

What a fielder this guy is.

 

[Free Hit]

excellent fielding

 

[Free Hit]

south africa choking my dad cant belive it

 

[Munna]

bengali PM has ample time to come n watch a neutral match...

and our president is always at his business

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

what a game, what a fightback by the kiwis

 

[Free Hit]
