I have never been much of a fan of the Proteas conservative methodology to cricket, but what i saw yesterday was in fact the greatest ODI of all time, When Australia posted 434 on the board, i like almost everyone else im sure though jeeez noone can do that, But the proteas proved us all wrong.. they came out like a tornado and when they left.. No one in the stadium could believe what they had achieved.. they bettered the record breaking score by 4 runs!!!!! in a chase to top it all off... Some is being made of thinner air.. and shorter bounderies at that ground.. but i would like to challenge anyone to replicate this... South Africa are now IMO real contenders for the world crown.. what do you all think????

Well done South Africa, although one has to question how difficult it was to get 400+ on that ground.... It's a big effort but I'm not quite sure it's that big.
