Re: South Africa in Australia
We don't use injuries as excuses.
If we did there would have been non stop talk about our best fast bowler and best spinner missing the entire test series.

Re: South Africa in Australia
True but you have to remember that it is a 20 20.
In an odi there is more time to bat and form partnerships and if Duminy keeps going the way he is all he needs is some support from Amla, De Villiers and perhaps a big hitting lower order player like Albie Morkel or Mark Boucher and I think they will post some very good totals to bowl too.

Re: South Africa in Australia
No you seem to just make up the most logical one.
But there aren't any now so you can't use it.
That is all I said I didn't say now you guys can't blame it on injuries like you always do.

But if using one off matches then Bangladesh must also be better than Australia

great to watch the hussey brothers run riot the other night. Steyn in all class, even in the shorter game. Clarke was missed and it will be good to see our most in form batsman back.

Re: South Africa in Australia
All i said was South Africa have to improve their performances to challenge Australia. And that's clearly true.
Australia convincingly beat South Africa in two Twenty20 games and that form must count for something. Our ODI team is only going to be better with the inclusions of Symonds and Clarke.
grapedo;309534 said:I think comparing a side's 20 20 form to its odi prospects is pretty rich.
If that was the way things worked Zimababwe would be a better odi team than Australia as they beat them at the 20 20 world cup.

Given Symonds form and fitness issues all season they will be better off without him

Re: South Africa in Australia
Mate, no one is making excuses.
Australia have had injuries throughout the whole test series and no one has made excuses.
You're comment was completely ridiculous. No one has made excuses so far. What reason would we have to to start making excuses now?
We'll thrash South Africa so you're the only one that will need to make excuses. @|
McGain might be back though.
Big reliance on Blizzard, Hodge, Quiney, Macca and Crossy to fire.

Re: South Africa in Australia
Don't know why you're relying on WA to do anything, absolutely useless at the moment.
