Well if I was the coach after that magnificent display I could have declared as well. Congratulation Amla, I thought that must be the best in the World!? I wish Bafana Bafana were that better!! Well obviously the first test is in our bag, 102 for 4 already with South Africa having to bet for the second inning, well I do not see the English coming back from even the 252 deficit we have brilliant bowlers who will seal the game for us before the English reach the 252 deficit mark! Congratulations for the Proteas it is not easy to beat England at the Oval and they are currently number one test ranking team, how sweet to beat them at their home ground. That proved nothing but brilliance for the Proteas big up boys you really did us proud!

Why our SPORTS like Soccer, Boxing atleast and the rests dont succeed. But theirs like Rugby, Cricket, Swimming, Golf and the rests do well locally and internationally?

Is not that im not proud of his achievement nie, i am. Is just this buggle me a lot because if you can look in most cases, soccer doesnt do well but yet there is huge investment (Money) in it mn. look on Rugby, they are the best in the WORLD, but SOCCER is number last. Is like we are not in the same COUNTRY.

No "us" and "them" please brother, especially not in sports. It's the one area where we SAfricans manage to come together as one nation.
If soccer is failing, please remember there are wh.ites in soccer as well, even high up in the administration. When Bafana crashed out of the WC, we all groaned collectively. Rugby, there are many bl.ack players playing for the Boks and S 15 teams and in coaching and administration.Cricket the same. It is OUR success, OUR failure.
