Photos of South Africa thumping Australia

"There used to be a bloke who gave himself out by walking when he'd hit the ball. The popularity of that within his team-mates may be shown by the fact that since his retirement, they no longer reply to any emails, phone calls or text messages."
Adam Gilchrist gives a tongue-in-cheek response to his own philosophy of 'walking'

Some “crowd” and action shots by a fan (clearly a South African supporter judging by his comments…) for South Africa’s thumping of Australia yesterday, including this one of a fan.

No it isn’t.Honestly.:D I realised afterwards how badly I had phrased that.

It was not a thumping!!!

If Australia had limited SA to 220 and made 100
we could upgrade this to a thumping.

No this was total slaughter……

There were times when the Proteas were worried. Apparently one of the pies at dinner was off, just as one example.

For a second they even thought that Pollock may have burnt his tongue on a hot drink. That could have cost SA the match. Mike, surely it can’t get worse than this? Though if it does, I will laugh for a very long time. Very long.

Don’t get cocky you South Africans! Australia have a habit of coming back very strongly…(just a warning from an Englishman)

I’m fine though. I can get as cocky as I want, because as much as I’d prefer South Africa to win, I’m not South African. So either way, its not too important to me.

Will how dare you critisize Sophie?

A lass with a finely tuned sense of right and wrong.

Jokes aside the Aussies are going to be up for it (today your time)tommorow.

May the best SA team win……..
