[iafzal]

Mendis makes his come back against the farangees.

way to go bro just don't play agianst Pak or Ind

 

[hasanb]

Mendis is a legend

yeah hes a legend for one match, until the team figures him out...as pakistan and india have done.

 

[adarsh_bang]

looks like mendis is bowling his best and most important spell ....

 

[Cover Drive]

Safee no hattrick for Mendis

 

[Cover Drive]

Mendis is all smiles

 

[Khalil]

Mendis is a legend

He is making Murali look like a average bowler

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

duminy bowled like a dummy )

[Khalil]

Khalil you are in SA right/ hows the weather over there?

Perfect weather 26 degrees Celcius

 

[Cover Drive]

Close shout for lbw

 

[iafzal]

SA are at risk of being knocked out of the CT if they loose big in this game. NRR may hurt them if NZ is able to win against SL.

 

[Cover Drive]

Perfect weather 26 degrees Celcius

And few players (from SL side) are feeling cold ? usually we see people going wild when the temp is above 25

 

[desidudecool]

mendis magic is back once again ...south africa cant read him haha

Thanks, its working for me ...

They won't be able to handle Murali andor Mendis no England will be able to do that

But NZ shouldn't be that bad because they have recently played these two so I don't think it should bother them but you don't know

 

[Cover Drive]

Thanks, its working for me ...

No problem

 

[desidudecool]

what pathetic commentary by nick knight during mendis spell...slow and dull

 

[Cover Drive]

what pathetic commentary by nick knight during mendis spell...slow and dull

Not only during Mendis spell but througout the match

 

[JustAnotherFan]

Khalil you are in SA right/ hows the weather over there?

Cover Drive, I am prob about 40kms away from the place and I heard thunder just now. Not raining.

According to weather forecast on net 0% chance of rain.

 

[iafzal]

Yes I agree but if Oram or Macallum is able to produce a special innings it can be an interesting game. there is always Bond so they can upset the SL in their day.

I am sjust saying losing big any of the game and it can put you in a very bad spot even if you win rest of the 2 games.

 

[Wassixpakistani]

Sa look well set to win this tournament for sure .

SAF has no weakness - AB

Ooopps forgot Mendis

 

[desidudecool]

south africa dont look like no1 ..i dont think anybody is nowadays ..last teamto be no1 was australia

 

[Wassixpakistani]

No team can match South Africa in the CT - Dale steyn

Well Sl are doing it right now

 

[saffer]

Saffer have been useless the whole day. Rusty in every aspect. For sure we will not win this tournament.

 

[saffer]

Never seen us play this bad. Pathetic !

 

[iafzal]

SA are not able to walk the talk and back it up

So what is new?

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Never seen us play this bad. Pathetic !

how about the 20/20 match against pak this year? )

 

[saffer]

But congrats Sri Lanka. You deserve to win this specfic game. I honestly will be surprised if we win a game playing like we are right now this tournament. We are not favourites after such a performance.

 

[Wassixpakistani]

Saffer have been useless the whole day. Rusty in every aspect. For sure we will not win this tournament.

Dude it's only the first match .

Would be wise to reserve your judgment for now , They would surely perform in the next match .

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

u will not win any tournament....always choking

 

[saffer]

Terrible bowling , terrible fielding and now terrible batting. Shocking !

 

[iafzal]

Dude it's only the first match .

Would be wise to reserve your judgment for now , They would surely perform in the next match .

It must be against ENG

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

keppler seems to have lost his voice )

 

[saffer]

No way. Been totally outplayed. Never seen us lose like this in a long time. The guys are too rusty and don't have a chance.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Terrible bowling , terrible fielding and now terrible batting. Shocking !

how about excellent batting,excellent bowlin, excellent fielding and excellent captaincy by lanka

 

[Shah]

What happened to Boucher's lips??

 

[Cover Drive]

Woow what a shot by boucher for a four

 

[saffer]

keppler seems to have lost his voice )

ha ha ha...ok...we might stll beat england. No matter how bad we are playing.

 

[Cover Drive]

Dilshan drops another

 

[adarsh_bang]

Saffer have been useless the whole day. Rusty in every aspect. For sure we will not win this tournament.

i wouldnt go that far brother... plenty of cricket ahead.. they'll atleast make semi's or final.. too early to say anything really..

infact even in this game we can expect a close finish cos s.a never gives up.. try till the end.. and this isn't even a title clash for them to choke

 

[saffer]

how about excellent bowling,excellent bowlin, excellent fielding and excellent captaincy by lanka

Sure of course...that's 50% of the problem for us. But consider we have like a 90% easy win record against them. We HAVE played bad. Mendis has obviously causes problems though.


Oh well...let's see what the tail can do.

 

[Cover Drive]

SA seems to be attacking SL now

 

[RumiNYC]

bhai log..which channel in cricheat is working good \\\\

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

ha ha ha...ok...we might stll beat england. No matter how bad we are playing.

u lose hope to quick man smith and kallis was goin good but mendis was your downfall

 

[Cover Drive]

Agree Morkel and Boucher seems to be doing that now

 

[Cover Drive]

Watch Mathews will be sent to cleaners

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Its always hard when d host get beaten

 

[iafzal]

SA is set to lose this one by about 100 runs.
Once these 2 are gone Mendis will run through the rest.

 

[Wassixpakistani]

No way. Been totally outplayed. Never seen us lose like this in a long time. The guys are too rusty and don't have a chance.

That rustiness is temporary , not permanent . Surely Sa went into this match underestimating Sl and would likely get themselves back in the tourny in the next match . These guys are hard-workers and won't let this trophy slip out of their hands so easily .

You just gotta keep faith in yo boys like we did in ours in T20 WC , Remember .

 

[Cover Drive]

Beautiful drive by Albie

Wooww seriously amazing drive

 

[saffer]

Thanks man. We do never give up. But hey...mendis pwned us today !

Not me. I never underestimate SL. Too much talent. We need to be at our best to beat them , but today too rusty.

The conditions didn't help , but excuses don't help the result.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

anyway all pak fans you will beat west indies with one of your eyes closed

 

[saffer]

Saffers should take the powerplay now. Take a chance. With a lot of luck we can come close.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

or maybe with both closed

 

[saffer]

anyway all pak fans you will beat west indies with one of your eyes closed

Sure...I think zimbabwe could beat this WI team. Breaks my heart.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

yea i agree..would like to see them attack mendis in d power play

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

i would like sl/ nz to go through in this group

 

[Wassixpakistani]

Not me. I never underestimate SL. Too much talent. We need to be at our best to beat them , but today too rusty.

Bro , MENDIS happened to your team . I have to say this was real sloppy from Sa , I expected them to be 100% ready but looks like they didn't did their homework against mendis .

Hopefully they have a plan for mendis the next time they meet him .

 

[saffer]

yea i agree..would like to see them attack mendis in d power play

Ha ha! That could be disater ! We have not worked him out at all!

 

[saffer]

ok ok ...20/20 game now...need 158 ....

come on boys !!

ha ha ha (you always got to hope..it's the saffer way !)

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Sure...I think zimbabwe could beat this WI team. Breaks my heart.

yep a zimbabe b team too ......dont mean to be unpatriotic...but i want them to get humiliated

 

[Wassixpakistani]

or maybe with both closed

Pak doesn't know that Kung-fu Sh!t .

They prefer to do it with their eyes

I think most teams at first struggled against him. Other's since worked him out. We still have no clue I think.

 

[Cover Drive]

u all gone deaf or what...i keep asking about cricheat...which channel seems to be working...

try crictime.com

Sorry I was gone downstair couln't reply

 

[saffer]

Oops...boucher gone. Oh well...should have taken the powerplay.

 

[Wassixpakistani]

I think most teams at first struggled against him. Other's since worked him out. We still have no clue I think.

Yup , I do wonder if Smith even knew about Mendis ? If he had known the destruction that guy has cause with his carrom balls then his boys would have been prepared .

 

[Wassixpakistani]

Out , Boucher gone

 

[Wassixpakistani]

And the next ball , Four by BOtha

 

[adarsh_bang]
