Our South African captain offered to throw the game for his countrymen...apparently
Collingwood probably wouldn't be overly impressed at being described as South African.

A very professional showing by the South Africans. They made us look like beginners.

we were shit! end off.
the south africans were good but nothing special.
if they played a half decent team im sure they would have lost.
im worried we need to beat india to stand any chance of qualifying.

The decision to pick Foster for his superior wicketkeeping over Prior's superior batting has worked well so far then

The batting was very poor yesterday. Only a few could be exempted from criticism.
Bopara - didn't pick a Steyn slower ball but hard to criticise
Wright - guilty of trying to force it when SA were bwoling well. Looked all at sea to the left armer bowling across him.
KP - not guilty
Shah - not guilty
Collingwood - dreadful heave of a shot, looks out of nick
Foster - guilty of not pushing for one when Shah was up the other end
Mascarenhas - same as Foster
The tail - can't be faulted as its not really their job
There didn't seem the same sort of intensity as we had the other day against Pakistan when it was do or die. Sunday is now again do or die so they had better shape up. No team changes, just improve.
SA were very good lets not beat about the bush, but they can be got after. Some incredible fielding though, that has to be admired.
