Young pop guns fire blanks...weaknesses exposed

Played them on their merits or would you have him try create something from nothing. SA were in shit, he was there to rebuild the innings.

But you are too thick to comprehend this obvious fact.......so because a bat does not score off 16 balls, when run rate is not an issue and wickets in hand are.....you conclude he was batting poorly.......I knew you knew little about the game, but you do keep confirming it.

Keep up the good work.

Next time I defend/leave 16 balls without scoring I'll be sure to conclude I'm doing a bad job.......what a joke

End of over 15 (1 run) South Africa 76/4 (156 runs required from 32 overs, RR: 5.06, RRR: 4.87)

Rahat Ali to Miller, OUT, unleashes a wonderful yorker on middle which Miller appears to be late on. Looked out as soon as it struck really. Miller wants the review though. Replays show this went on to hit the back pad, so that may hurt his chances for this being given, but it is red all the way down, so Miller has to go, and South Africa are now five down with still quite a bit to do

Wow Vlagshit are you really this stupid? Your angle was...'Weren't you trying to convince me how easy it was hitting Duminy for 11 runs per over on a field the size of a rugby field?'

My counter was that Miller was NOT facing a spinner on a rugby field. Hello!!!!!

Firstly JP got smacked by a guy who had his eye in and was an opener when the pressure was not on and chose to attack him given firstly he is a spinner and secondly the field was tiny.

Miller on the otherhand had only just got in, his side was in shit and he was there to steady the ship before launching an attack......he never got to that point because he was undone by a great Yorker........one that according to Moz looked better as Miller is a opo gun.......what utter ignorant crap.

But hey ho you lot are a real tonic when it comes to cricket.......you lot have clearly played very little of this lovely game for your appreciation of the art is a big fat ZERO.

Good one D    U    T    C    H    I   E........which part of those two sentences are you struggling with?

And while you are at it.......please explain how you reached the ignorant conclusion that I said Miller was facing a spinner.......take your time.

EC damn right and they taught me well........something you clearly missed out on.

There is thick and then we have this......hell even in your taal I would have seen the obvious.   

Bwhaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.........this is classical......so the D   U    T   C    H   M    A    N says my first sentence could have been interpreted with an 'It' in front of it........no you profoundly stupid man.......if I had intended an 'It' in front of my sentence, changing the meaning of the sentence in total, I would have inserted an 'It' you moron.

Talk about making a complete twak of yourself.......but please, please keep going

Your poor English teacher must be turning in her/his grave

There is no reason in the world that a part time bowler cant bowl 10 over you profoundly stupid man.

We all know JP is a not a specialist bowler, no-one ever said he was so once again you are exposing yourself for the dunce you are. Kindly point out where I said he was a specialist bowler.

I have said he is better than a part timer and more than capable of bowling 10.......we all know he is a specialist bat who is a handy off spinner.

Why do I think he can do the job as a spinner.......for the simple reason that his bowling technique is spot on for a spinner as is his flight and the little turn he gets. His action and technique is better than Phangiso, the specialist spinner in the squad.

Exposed once again.....drum roll
