Sri Lanka v South Africa, 5th ODI, Colombo, 31 July, 2013

Apparently pride is worth playing for.

And the joke continues. While out young quickies are ripping Aus A to pieces our unfit pensioners are getting ripped to shreds.

And now the geniuses are batting Miller at 7.

And de Villiers at 5? That said, would much rather have the best test team than JAMODI side.

Also, ban Senenayake.

Another doddle for the Lankans for 4-1. Well done them.

Poor start from both Jimmy and Broadly - not hitting their straps - all over the place - allowing Watson and Rogers freedom to score .... selectors might rue not picking Trembler on this hard deck.

Good toss to win ... bat all day

Oh dear.

South Africa's ODI batting is a joke. Behardien looks a club player. Ingram isn't much better. Faf is in woeful form......Meanwhile the likes of Rossuow and Elgar aren't considered at all for the ODI side.

The bowling isn't much better. Behind Steyn and Morkel there isn't much. Morris should be persisted with but Kleinveldt isn't an ODI bowler. I'm surprised they didn't take de Lange on this tour. Potentially he could be better than Morkel.
