It looks like it will be a rain shortened game. If that is the case then it's a big bonus for us that Andre Russell is not playing.

This kak again! Is it still considered a choke if you fail at the tournament as a whole, and not just in one really important game? We have a serious mentality issue in SA sport...across all codes! But our cricketers really do take the cake.

No, I don't think so. I think it's a choke when you put yourself into a position to win and then screw it up. This sorry lot aren't even good enough to get into a position to choke from.
Don't think we can call them chokers. That would be an insult to our teams from the past who at least got into positions they should have won from.

Of course it's a choke when there's pressure. These guys are feeling huge pressure. Proteas choke when there is something at stake personally and for the team.....lose this game and there will be nothing to choke for and all our mental midgets will come good.

Hahahaha....oh dear. Never mind he'll be great back at the Wanderers. Definitely has all the attributes of a future Proteas captain.

Okay I said Amla should be selected, because in the absence of AB, our only chance was if Amla found some form. With his serious concussion upsetting his fine pre WC form, we may never know if he was shaping up prior to that.
As for Steyn and Duminy......produce the post where I had a fit because you said they should not be in the team. And don't slime out of it....just produce the post. It shouldn't be hard there are very few strings on cricket post WC selection.
