Probably the most spineless performance I've seen from them in a long time... four more years, four more self-flaggelating "we're not chokers" years.

I have to give up supporting South Africa in sporting events...

The general opinion at work yesterday was that they support the Black Caps, but if they were betting, they'd bet on the Proteas.

I told them that Proteas have the ability to screw up any game.

Now you know how your Kiwi neighbours feel about the All Blacks during any Rugby World Cup...

True, however they have at least collected one crown in that tournament...

I think SA has the best players when it comes to cricket and they lose because they have plenty of players to choose from. why Lopsy was dropped boggles the mind. why botha played also boggles the mind. i think

1. du plessis should not have come instead Albie Morkel should have
2. Botha should have been the 12th man in all games and Lopsy put in
3. Van Wyk should have opened with Smith the guy is good at playing pace.
4. JP out

I'm not happy, I want to give them a good kick in the but!!!
I will still support them.
An Indian friend of mine at work said to me, "If Amla gets past 20, he will make a century, and SA will win. Amla is dangerous". The team he hoped India did not have to face in the final is SA.
