News: Oscar's Trial got underway, the Gauteng High Court started with some drama on Tuesday 04, court was adjourned when one of the channel show/reveal 1st witness face on social network-twitter and Beeld {Afrikaans} newspaper published the picture.

Michelle Burger, first witness did not allow Advocate Barry Roux intimidate her testimony.  Roux asked times and times, repeated questions trying to contradict and confuse Burger.  Whereas, Burger was adamant of her statement and credibility, stood firm when answering Roux's questions.

Hard to take in all, Burger ended her testimony in tears- How Reeva Died?

Sports: Cricket, Smith Bid Farewell

South Africa, Graeme Smith took a bow.  On Monday 03, Smith announced his retirement to the media and colleagues.  Captain retired from International Cricket after a final Test against Australia match at Newlands, Cape Town yesterday.

The 33 year-old made his debut at Newlands at the tender age of 18.  Where it all began, his career took off them and leadership skills started to represent itself.  ''This has been the most difficult decision I have ever made in my life.  It's a decision that I have been considering since my ankle surgery in April last year'', said Smith.


                              Aus captain Michael Clarke shake Graeme Smith's hand.

Age 22, he captained the Proteas _2001-2014.  Smith led his side to two series win in Australia and triumph in England in 2012 that took the team to the summit of world cricket.


  • Test debut against Australia in 2002 at Newlands.
  • Made debut at age 22
  • Made double centuries in consecutive test -277 at Edgbaston and
  • 259 at Lords, England 

On Tuesday 04, Aus captain Clarke and team mates made a guard of honour to salute and bit farewell to Graeme Smith.  ''I didn't enjoy much of today to be honest, it was a long day and it was getting pretty close at the end'', Australia captain Michael Clarke said at the post-match presentation.  ''South Africa has always been the hardest challenge for me as an individual player and this series was no different'', added Clarke.

Batsman David Warner was named man of the match and of the series.  Aus bowlers, Mitchell Johnson, Ryan Harris have been exceptional and Lyon has been great in the series as well.  SA's AB de Villiers scored (43), Faf du Plessis (47), JP Duminy and Vernon Philander unbeaten 51 couldn't save the game.  They have showed resistance towards  Aussie bowlers!

''We have certainly been outplayed in this test match, but we still found a way to take it as deep as possible''- Graeme Smith


                                                            Australia Squad- Winners

 
05 March: Australia 2-1 SA at Newlands, Cape Town.

Football:  Brazil beat South Africa (Bafana Bafana) 5-0, at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg yesterday.  An International Friendly match ended without SA SCORING even a single goal!!! What was that?  Really 'our football' squad is failing tremendous, and what is left; will they ever score goals? The New kit didn't produce goals...SOS
