We were dreadful today.
Time for a clear out. I hope Key has the balls to ditch Mott.

As well as Bairstow, Jordan, Livingston, Ali and Butler for Captain duties

Bairstow once again did nothing all tournament and get bowled through the gate
Chris Jordan is really a superb and world class fielder that’s about it.
Livingston handy that he can bowl 2 styles well but his batting contributions are rare
Ali well unfortunately he just isn’t impactful any more in either department

Time for SA to finally get across the line just a shame it’s been the worst T20 WC ever

People complain about roads for T20 where 200+ scores are achieved easily and the moment challenging pitches are presented they cry about it. To me these pitches were a welcome change from what is being seen all around the world. High time batsmen were challenged to think rather than plant your foot forward and biff thru the lines making bowlers look like human bowling machines.

Shameful to take Hartley for 6 weeks and not play him

Butler needs to step down as skipper

Fail to see what Mott offers?

Is Mo international standard any more?

Feel Jacks a scapegoat and ridiculous to waste his talent at no.3

I feel the real problem is the Buttler/Mott axis and some poor, poor decision making - i.e. underuse of Topley early on - continued use of Wood - poor use of Jacks - poor selection for semi final - Duckett a passenger.

Overall - not really blaming the players, very disappointed at the leaders.

Didn't understand a lot of the decision making, probably time for Mott to make way as he just hasn't made the best of the players available to him. Buttler looks diminished by the captaincy, the same way Root did.

The fact he can bowl a genuine off spinner at 90mph is just different gravy, either going to get you bowled or if you're lucky LBW
