Re: Australia vs. SouthAfrica 5th ODI March 12th 2006
Wow, what a performance from SA and for Aussies, what a setback. I'm glad that they lost the series since it gives boost to SA to kick the heck out of them during the tests.
Really, it shows once again that one "single" player's presence or absence can make a huge difference. Yea, in Aus's case, it was McGrath or even Shane Warne. In any case, when I read the top thread of 872 runs, I couldn't believe that it might have happened. Than, I went to CricInfo and they regarded it as the "greatest"match of all time. No woner, if one can chase 434, the teams deserve to make the greatest game of all time...
Any highlights from both Aus and SA innings would be appreciated greatly.
