    Just when you think you've seen it all, Hashim Amla opens in a 20/20 game :patsch

    Could have been worse.

    Jacques Kallis opened in the last one.

    Asking Jacques Kallis to score at a reasonable rate is like asking Ian Bell to bat the day to save a test match.

    Did you see the Aus vs SA games in the WC last year?

    I was watching my review DVD the other day, and it really reminded me of the bizarre innings that Kallis played.

    In the first one they were chasing 380 and they were off to a flyer, yet scored only 7 from 16 and plodded along to like 50 off 70 (wtf) - then in the semi final tried the backing away tactic to Glenn McGrath having made only five :patsch

    It would be interesting to see Ian Bell's highest scores when......

    1. Nobody else has made a hundred
    2. Batting on the last day in a losing cause
    3. In games which England have lost

    Have a spare half hour, so may do a bit of digging on cricinfo

    Duminy looks top notch. How England could do with a youngster of this quality, a left-hander also, to fill the void in the middle order created by Bellend and Collywobbles.

    Was just an idea....

    A couple of topics lately have been, well..... taken over by cricket, so if our mods would be kind enough to allow it to stay.....

    Can keep the talk on boxing.
