Yesssssssss!!!!! Suck It

[Guest Gunner]

Congratulations' date=' deserved victory throughout the basis of the test. [b']Would of been better if it was a 3 match series so we could have a decider, but not to be.

Exactly my sentiment.

i am happy we had 2 tests(instead of another lame 5 match odis)

welcome to ICF' date='btw Roark is one of my favorite literary characters.[/quote'] Thanks, Great to see another Roark/Rand fan here at :icflove: PS: Amala is one of my fave beauties too :--D

Celebrate with a pinch of salt' date=' they almost pulled it off.[/quote'] Don't see anything wrong with what he said. It was a very close win. Still like others said it's a win.... so :hatsoff: Glad to see that Bhajji finally bowled well. It's been a long time since he's actually lived up to his rep as a senior bowler.

I didn't know that a win by an innings and 57 runs in a match where 80 overs have been lost is a close win. :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical::hysterical:

We were three deliveries away from a draw. That counts as close to me. Happy to be optimistic.. but were the over to be completed we would all be down in the dumps.

true... a win is a win...but there's nothing wrong with asking people to take it with a pinch of salt

[Sachinism]

Why should this win be taken with a grain of salt? We kicked ass, we won by an innings. We were missing Dravid. Zak didn't bowl on the last day. They managed to take 6 wickets while we took 20. ****ing be proud of what you're team has achieved.

true...but maintain a sense of perspective

Yes, and the perspective is SAF were lucky that 3 complete n00bs were playing in the 1st test.

[bsriharsha]

think about the perspective that the number 11 took 60 balls to get out

[flamy]

think about the perspective that the number 11 took 60 balls to get out

think about the perspective that we grabbed a result even with rain interruptions :idea:

no body is denying that this isn't a good win for us....despite only bowling with three bowlers and rain interruptions... just that there are still weaknesses in the bowling attack,why a bowler who can remove the top order of the proteas struggles removing the last two wickets...

Think about the perspective that almost one day was lost due to bad weather.
