SA thrash pakistan..

A blistering batting attack by smith , de villiers, kallis and boucher saw SA post a imposing total of 392 on pakistan which proved too much for them as they stumbled to 228 all out. After smith and de villiers helped the home team with 140 within 20 overs, boucher and kallis provided the closing with one of the best hitting performances i have ever witnessed. Boucher in particular was ruthless on deliveries pitched full on the leg side and ended up with 78 in just 38 balls. Pakistan bowling attack did not have any variety or used bouncers to attack the batsmen. The game was lost before they came in to bat. The rest which followed matched my expectation. watching the game with Ali in delany’s was a delight. Khana shana, cricket and all that! Pakistan are a talented side on paper and that has yet to translate into results.
