More garbage bowling from Rana,

huge six from De villiers.
 
4 more another long hop from Rana!

this guy has lost it as a bowler big time!
 
well, 101/1. Kallis is past his 50. I don't see Pakistan winning this one unless some bookies want to cut the power to the stadium. :)
 
Rana has made a sacrifice for the team
Before this series Pakistan were not sure of who to play as their 3rd seamer, Gul or Rana.

Now we know.

looking on the bright side, Asif will be spared from bowling his quota of 10 overs


yes i think this is what the media were referring to when the had stories of "Asif to be rested in final ODI"
 
I tried to warn you guys...don't get your hopes up for the one day games....

I predicted 5-0 to SAF in the poll thread....

are you a Pakistani team member? Paksitani batsmen, fielders, bowlers, physios and coaches - all of them tried too.
 
well you guys sure don't lack passion...that I will give you .

but you did show at least on a good day that you can beat us.....


I wish Kallis would bring out his big hitting now...it's not a side of his batting people often see...but when he decides to hit he makes the Symmonds and Afridi's of the world look stupid...
 
the last rites being admininstered by someone we managed to bring back into some form.,...

Pakistan have to go away and really scrutinise their problems....in all aspects of the game

Not quiet sure. Symonds is a genuine executor.
 
The Pakistan fielding is awful. No desire to go after the ball and the basics are all lacking. There were just overthrows for no backing up. It's schoolboy stuff.
 
Outplayed completely in the last two ODI's, South Africa have been brilliant in this series. Full credit to them.
 
All over. South Africa win the match by 9 wickets and take the ODI series 3-1. Well played.

AB bhai sb
we are nice people and sporting nation. I am sure Akmal is whispering "Shabash ABCD" and YK patting him and telling him where and how to hit.
 
Well played SA. hope to see similar stuff from them in WC and much improved Pakistani performance
 
hard luck pakistan....I think your batting , apart from the one game lacked serious confidence....shame as there is some obvious ability ...

also seems you guys need to find some new bowlers to back up asif....it was slaughter out there ...
 
Well I have just stepped in from work and I was at least expecting us to have put up a fight. Quite a shockingly pathetic and unbelievable performance from a bunch of people who are suppose to be representing their country.

I expect the players to sit down together and have a long, hard look at themselves now. There isn't long until the world cup.

Umar Gul is a brilliant bowler.
 
then umar gul better get fit quickly...because you guys hyped some other bowlers that got murdered 4 games in a row ...

Like? We've always been saying Asif, Gul and Akhtar are our front line bowlers.

man of the series must be kallis (again...boring !!)
i forgot that he bowls too. he may edge it because of that but De Villiers have have a very good series with batting and his fielding has saved many runs plus added uneeded stress on Pakistani batsman as they couldn't score freely
 
Well played SA. Totally deserved to win the series.
From our point of view, you can't defend totals like we've seen in the last 2 games.
Harder to analyse the bowling in those 2 games as too few runs to be competitive.
Needs some serious thought when the boys get back home.
No need to get disheartened about the WC as I expect the personnel will be quite different as well as the conditions.
 
haved hasan was hyped as your best one day bowler...

to quote the afrikaans commentaters who obviously can speak uncencored they said the bowlers playing in this series for pakistan other than asif had no play even playing first class cricket ...

(their words...not mine) ....so you got some worries there....and shoab is getting old and always injured....
 
pollock man of the series....hmmm....I suppose it was the bowlers that won it...well done polly.....4 more years of this !
 
9 wickets in 4 matches, actually 5 as Paksitan batting in the 5th rained out match, and 5 of the 9 were taken today. I don't agree with it. they proved me wrong again and I don't like it
 
so come on guys....now that it's over...are my prediction that we can/should beat australia so crazy ?
