I just can't wait to watch South africa and Pakistan tomorrow. SA really are a powerhouse at the moment with their batting

There are only two plausible results in this game:

1) SA smashes Pakistan by 200 runs or the chasing equivalent

or

2) Pakistan thrashes the Proteas by 100+ runs or the chasing equivalent.

The only way this WC can stay alive is if Pakistan catch fire from today.

If SA do win today then we effectively know the 4 semi-finalists with 19 matches still to go

[sloandog]

Yea waw going to say.

There's not much to dislike about Jansen is there? Tall, quick, aggressive and a proper batter. Massive talent

[sloandog]

And it's finally nice to see a bit of aggression. The way of the world crixket scene now dictates that there's far too much familiarity between sides

[sloandog]

Jansen giving some shit out is great to see. Cotzee straight in there too

Pakistan, although have done well to get to 270 on what looks like a wicket with lot of wear and tear, it was criminal not to play out 50 overs. Lack of game awareness.

That might just cost them the match.

I agree on South African bowling attack, this is their best bowling attack since Pollock, Ntini days... Lots of agression in there as well, Jansen, Coetzee, Rabada... And Nortje will come back too.

Got to say RSA underutilize Shamsi, as good as Maharaj is, he is not a wicket taking bowler, he is more of a containing bowler. Shamsi might go for plenty of runs on his off day but if he gets on a roll, he gets loads of wickets.
