Should have left de kock in. ABD already showing his class, if he bats the rest of the overs England could be in trouble with there rubbish death bowling

[praguetaz]

Nice....

[csnew]

Abd's far too good against the short ball for this tactic by England.
Time for Dernbach to get smashed. He's having a shocker. Worse than normal

[roco]

Broad swearing at fielders when it was poor bowling

Dernbach is useless

Pratt when I met him and gets battered whenever he bowls

Is he doing broads sister?

Dernbach showing his class as 'the best death bowler in the country' as usual.

Dernbach is poor. This over could cost us the tournament.



umpires have been poor today. Anyone see the holland innings. Guy bowled 2 wide almost of the strip and ump gave nothing. Batsmen moved over for the third and it was a foot outside leg. Ump again gave nothing then mouthed "you moved across"

Shocking umpiring.

[Giraffe208]

Dernbach the "nicest guy" in England?

[csnew]

Brilliant 50 from ABD!

26 of the over! 200 on the cards. Usual pies at the death

[Giraffe208]

De Villiers oozes class!

The biggest threat to the England team... IS the England team.

Talent, skill and fitness are all there... Mental strength is key!

Looks like ABD was the biggest threat  . Amazing knock.

England on the way home

My God! Moeen, Tredwell and Bopara with better economy rates all don't complete they're allocation. Yet Dernbach is allowed to go for 15 an over!

What do they see in him, it's beyond me!

And why pick,him when there are 3 other seamers? Stick another batter in, or play Parry

All those brains sitting in the dugout - Giles, Colly, Thorpe.

Jesus, what a shower - they couldn't run a tap!!!

AB is the difference! England needed to keep them down to 170 really otherwise there'll be too much scoreboard pressure!
Too many runs to chase down so a nice early finish at the office!
The big question is whether England will start too slow and lose wickets at key times, and end up 165 for 8 after 20 overs? Or whether it'll be 134 all out cos they tried to go too hard against Steyn?

Go on Brucey, get those claws in! Can't help but agree with Dernbach though, he has one good game in 10 and that keeps him in the side. 90% of the time he's absolute garbage!

Shocking no ball decision

[smilley792]

I said the umpiring was shocking.



Really thought hales was gonna capitalise. But hes gone. Gutted.
