Re: Australia vs. SouthAfrica 5th ODI March 12th 2006

Sorry, but it was a DRAW not a loss…

Re: Australia vs. SouthAfrica 5th ODI March 12th 2006

i think australia had it now.. there are no adjectives to discribe Saffies victory. If only that ti------ could bowl decently, Sa would have romped home with plenty to spare.

Re: Australia vs. SouthAfrica 5th ODI March 12th 2006

ya, but wat did it cost sa?

Re: Australia vs. SouthAfrica 5th ODI March 12th 2006

A tie to be precise.. but in affect a loss because that enabled australia to advance and Sa was booted out of the competition.

said Jatt Mirza after Australia’s batting performance

How about it being broken in a few hours :smiley:

Re: Australia vs. SouthAfrica 5th ODI March 12th 2006

We lost the chance to beat Pakistan in the final :slight_smile:

Anyway, everyone knew what a close call for AUS and RSA it was during that series and immediately a home-away ODI was aranged. Something AUS don’t like talking about because SA won in RSA and drew (should have won) in AUS proving that at that time RSA was definitely the best ODI team in the world. BTW. it was the two series where Pollock became Captain because of Hansie’s troubles.

Re: Australia vs. SouthAfrica 5th ODI March 12th 2006

The tensoin/ fun was till last over. With 4 balls left two run required and a wicket. Nitni playing Bret Lee, wicket and Aus could have won by one run...
It was just awesome...
Gibbs was toying with bowling and hitting them at will..........
Smith was workman like hardworking and hitting
Boucher as usual cool
there were special knocks in between ... overall......... WOWOW
