South_Paw Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 From what I am reading about choking here - Dhoni' date=' the captain cool choked too vs. Zim/Ire where he missed some chances :giggle:[/quote'] Only considered as chokes if the match is lost.
Precambrian Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 De Kock has proved to be just that, de-cocked, that he choked so badly throughout this tournament, and accentuated it in the SF.
vvvslaxman Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Wonder we can list all the images of South Africans falling all over the ground for various reasons.
vijay50 Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Wonder we can list all the images of South Africans falling all over the ground for various reasons. Yes ofcourse. May be start a mega thread on Choker SA with pictures and 1-2 sentences below each picture.Will run into several pages. :hysterical: The current match pictures itself are good enough to fill page 1 of new thread. I will also contribute some pictures.
Raghav_12 Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Just finished watching highlights and from highlights they clearly seemed to be getting bottled towards the end. It really looked like a choke. Fielders falling all over the places. Simple catches getting dropped, run outs missed. All fielders looked to be in some sort of panic.
zen Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Only considered as chokes if the match is lost. Ok so if Elliot would not have hit the 2nd last ball for a six, SA would not have choked but the Kiwis would have (per a few)! And the thread would have been pointless or may be "Kiwis rofl" :P
prasadiyer Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 It wasn't two run-outs. It was five. Guptill in the second over. Anderson by AB Elliot, missed collection by De Kock. Two chances missed by De Kock when scampering byes in the last overs. (Watch the replays, a hit would have been out both times) Behardien and Duminy dropping Elliot. They played well otherwise, and it was a great match, but that doesn't mean no choke. Jana Novotna didn't lose 6-0 6-0 to Graf; she dominated and then lost an easy position. Same here; runouts with batsmen miles out, Behardien poised under the ball to finish the match and Duminy runs in like Superman to stop him; De Kock has two chances at a simple bowling ball run out and misses. And then Steyn can't defend 10 off 4 with Vettori on strike. If that's not a choke I don't know what is. Very good analysis.
GrandMasterSaxy Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 missing run outs, dropped catches, sloppy fielding - All these in one single match - in a KO match :headshake: They seriously deserve this award
zen Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Any analysis on Ind choking? May be some pictures of Kohli dropping that easy catch under pressure, etc? Did the bowlers choke at the death too? :hmmmm:
nic007 Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Touring another country for four months without even winning once against the hosts, is what I call a choke. India had no chance, they were punch-drunk from all the losses against Aussie even before the semi started.

The first match was not one sided. Four months of test cricket does little to make you a competitive ODI team in Australia. :winky:
nic007 Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Not trolling at all. BIIIGGG chokers and the stats back it up. In fact, it actually goes beyond choking, obliterated and hung out to dry may be a better description.
