SA Footy

West Indies all out for 55

The WI batting brought back memories of cricket training
Remember this drill
A person about 40-60m away would hit high balls and we would practice outfield catching
Thats what a few of the WI disMissALs looked like

Pakistan beat India by 10 wickets

Set up by a brilliant opening spell by Afridi, who removed both openers with unplayable 140kph inswinging rockets. Mitchell Starc should watch and learn. Don't stroll in and bowl 133kph half volleys .... charge in like Afridi did. We've seen you do it before, si let's see it again.

Have to agree SMG, the balls that knocked over Sharma and Rahul were totally unplayable

Great call. We haven't seen that Mitchell Starc for a while. He was going for seven an over in the Shield last year ffs.

Pakistan have a knack of continuing to churn out international standard fast bowlers.

Anyone watching the Windies Saffies game

Windies have Pollard Gayle DreRuss yet they open with crab Lendl SImmons

South African cricket board has given a directive that all players must kneel before the start of every game for remainder of WC and next minute de Kock makes himself unavailable for rest of tournament due to personal reasons hmmmmmm

Rabada knocking over Simmons might help the Windies accelerate their run rate, interesting that Gayle didn't open.

Is Chris Gayle still good enough?

Recent form hasn't been great, perhaps Curtley Ambrose is right about Gayle?

Don't think 143 is enough

Am I alone in finding the whole kneeling thing in poor taste and more offensive than supportive?

So I can understand your thinking, how is it offensive and to whom?

Symbolizing the kneeling on Floyd's neck, it makes me cringe, I'm a special unit though so I don't necessarily think I'm right.

OK.

I don't find it offensive.

I don't get too involved in political stances etc. and I don't find it offensive personally, I just don't find it tasteful, just my opinion and it has little to do with me.
