Probably because G. Smith elected to bowl first instead of batting. STUPID CALL!!!!!! Slow pitch, with spinners.
Smith should not have held AB da Velliers back either.
SA is a strong side. Watch them crrruuush ENGLAND, destroy WI and beat NZ. And as in the past, lose to Aust due to some ridiculous play by the SA. Being a SA fan, I would not mind if a smaller nation like NZ or SL wins the WC. But Aust is just toooo darn good. Only India might have beaten them. LOL

OK OK Dont be over excited.........
Why????...ha.... ha....Are you kidding Desert fox?
why not?
That's the best part of this glorious game...Cricket..Why Are you stunned...?? Dont worry.
This is the reality.Youngsters over rule so called "PANDITS"
South Africans Are not any more........ No.01.
Hansi Kronye-Klusner-Kersten....they are gone now..
This team is nothing more than Pakistan or Indian team..
No offence
they all out of competition
Sometimes it may be... Bangladesh...enthusiasm...may be young blood..
so either Bangladesh is playing realy good or South Africans are playing realy bad.....might have taken Bangla easy and Bangladesh is kind of team who knows how to pick up "chances"..Good luck to them !!
What i have seen is that South Afirca always played good cricket game(with today's exception) ..
So could not sort out what is happening today ! and there is always a chance of "upset" in cricket ! That chance have to be taken by a good team like>>>Bangladesh.
Did you see by the time ..Mark Boucher hit 6' Smith laughed.
Alas!! then very next ball boucher was walking back to have a shower. What an Irony.
At least now Smith happened to know that they are not No-01.
They should have been defeated by Sri Lanka.
Ho...Ho,...What happened to this...So called No.1 team???
That's the best part of this glorious game...Cricket.
.well i think Bangladesh are very well deserved team to beat even so called "Number 01".....But S.AF.. are kind of stunned !! thats something They could never get over with........Why they fail at the end?? must be some Psychothology behind....otherwise NowBangladeshi Tigers makes a good combination of batting, Bowling and fielding !!
I can remember Smith said after Sri Lanka Match .............." we knew.....that we were going to win..... & when last- moment ...only Sri Lanka put their head in to the match ....
So now It doesn't matter .we are the best"
What an anti-climax for a" ego -Maniac"
Today he was clean bowled.Stumps were shattered
Hense his day dreams of qualifing to much awaited Semi- Finals.Now West Indies can sneak in...
Hail to thee Bangla Tigers...way to go!!
Keep on trying ...
Long live Cricket!!!

Because South Africa did not play to their potential whereas Bangladesh played excellent cricket and outplayed South Africa in all the departments of the game.
