It looks as if the SACB made a hash of things by setting up the Proteas at Centurion Park and not the Wanderers. All the other ICC teams had a run on both strips, except the Proteas and we all know the results.

For JP to fire now in India could be that he suffers from the pressure from our so-called "home fans' types like Mbo, Kobus and roy. South African fans must be the most fickle in the world. Crow when you win, whinge when you lose.

What we should do is get rid of Corrie van Zyl the assistant bowling coach, have another look at Barnes and perhaps bring back Ray Jennings as a Prtoea's coach. I fell Mickey has had his run and the team is now too good for him.

Leave Kallis and Gibbs alon both are match winners, look for a replavement for Boucher, and perhaps re-instate Ashwell Prince, another to have suffered through no fault of his own. Injury put him out, and the selectors have forgotten him!

And what everyone is forgetting T20/20 is not ODI stuff either!!

Well said Mr. Cloete! I fully concur with you. When times are good as in Australia the whole nation supported JP. After a bad ICC tournament they turn there backs... The boy is good and he will go on to play many many more brilliant knocks including whilst playing for the Proteas

A surefire way for all our teams to win games:
Cricket balls, Rugby Balls & especially Soccer balls should be made from a form of Dagga, and the team that wins gets to Keep it. They will never drop another catch in cricket, miss a goal in soccer nor drop the rugby ball. Watch all our teams performances increase 1000%

Look, interval is almost done, and soon you lot can go back to class!!
It sadens me that people can critic a young guy like JP, we seem to have so much patience and tolerence for guys like ab and boucher, heres a guy that basically won the series in australia, the most consistant 20/20 batsmen over the last 12 months, outstanding fielder, he even gets vital wickets at key moments, yes the sa team has underperformed in major tournaments, quite similar to the All black rugby team, I say give this guy a chance to really make his claim, his an undoubted talent, people that think his useless must go have them checked out...for me he symbolises the future of this great nation! So stop being fickle and start believing, I will stand by this, form is temporaly, but class is permanent.. and JP Duminy is just that, class!!! he will experience downs, he will dissapoint us, but im confident, he success will far outway the failures

It hurts me so much when our team loses. I have NO clue why we under perform in the big matches - right since being re-introduced to world cricket. We have phenomenal players (on paper), but when it comes to the delivery, it is just not there when required. I hope, before i die (and I am 35) that our boys will bring us some silverware. I will die a supporter or OUR BOYS though!

this does not excuse the fact , he is useless together with his team mates when playing for the proteas. its depressing to think we have players who perform when they feel like. they should all be read a riot act. imagine i'm not even interested in the 2011 world cup mickey Arthur is bubbling about. what can we expect next time, a win or lose? I'm not putting my blood pressure at risk next time. whether you lose or win, it doesnt matter, just like Bafana Bafana.

Now that is how you play cricket - well done

If only he could play an innings like that for the Proteas, good knock though, the Cobras could do alot with that $6000000, nice to see a south african team advancing even though RCB has a huge South African Contingincy.
Well done boys, bring home the money.

A world Class knock from Duminy, as it was long overdue. Unfortunately For Kallis and Gibbs, again they failed to deliver. Kallis you'll be remembered as one of the greats, but don;t hang on past your time. As for Gibbs well sooner or later the ICC will step in a force him to retire, they cant have marks left on the pitch from his WALKER!

So, why couldn't he score even half of that in the whole ICC Championship Trophy tournament?
