I don't have have all the answers but as a SA guy , cricket info got it spot on we got crushed today due to a bad selection of the batting order ! Pollock and Boucher should of batted way up the order !!!

time for a big rethink on how to chase a big total !

As for the other headlines on cricket info some of them seem to be a suspect !

I wouldnt say it was a crushing, they only lost by 80 runs and it was only due to some good aussie batting at the end and SA's failure to promote Boucher & Pollock ealry in the innings. A crushing would be like a 10 wicket, 100 run loss or somthing.

don't knw - are you? i think "evil" seems a bit strong - the need to use excessive language to elevate importance is unabated

still, oz "thrashed" SA today (first line)...while their under 19s "destroyed" (or sumthing) SL?.

zim. on the other hand, set "up a testing total" (then won by 117 runs in 44 overs)???
