julianlev Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Woohoo! First few games of IPL done and I am exhausted Congrats to the CSK RR and RCB for their first wins As for me, I'm throwing my full support behind the South African contingent playing in this tournament Already making an impact, with Botha guiding RR home, followed by a blitzkrieg from AB to secure RCB win Albie batted well during his limited time at the crease, perhaps needs to move up the order? Feel bad for Steyn, bowled really well but had too few runs to work with Really have to wonder why DC didn't play Rusty Theron, known as the best death bowler in SA Also sorry for Kallis, played really well but saw his team fall by the wayside Looking forward to seeing Duminy improve, know he can be an asset when in form Anyway, looking forward to a great tournament :hatsoff: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julianlev Posted April 9, 2011 Author Share Posted April 9, 2011 If that's the case why wasn't he in the SA world cup squad? he was too busy causing havoc in the 20/20 league back here honestly I've no idea, but he is a 20/20 specialist and its not like our fast bowling needed any more power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sid Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Well any team would want SA players in their line up,they are high class players and plus single SA player cant make the whole team choke :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switchblade Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 I hope Morne does well for us the Daredevils but he bowls too many no balls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jusarrived Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Theron is class in shorter formats , really surprising SA hasnt given him a longer run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VRV Singh Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Plenty of saffers in the tournament... I'm interested to see if Langeveldt gets much action for RCB, another good limited overs bowler..Zaheer, Nannes and him would be a superb trio, but they'd have to drop another foreigner.. Du Plessis another good all-round player... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julianlev Posted April 9, 2011 Author Share Posted April 9, 2011 and then themselves got tripped in the knockout stages :--D :icflove: meh, we're over it new coach, new captain, new team new dawn for SA cricket so bring that trophy over to SA for a series, we'll be waiting for you :hatsoff: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langeveldt is a Cape Cobra bowler our finest pace bowler even at the death won us the 20/20 trophy back here take it from someone who knows, RCB would be fools not to give him a run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganeshran Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 ^^ I think its going to be Botha.. strange because his position itself is not safe in the team with Peterson and Tahir doing good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
