Pup is humble in defeat

Pup is always very fair in his comments. Yes, he talks his own team up beforehand, that is the Aussie way. But he is always very gracious in defeat.

Incidentally, I hope that SA fans read that last sentence in the article: "Clarke has not scored more than 25 in his last 11 Test innings." In his last 11 innings, Graeme has scored a double ton and a fifty. And Pup bats at 4/5, he doesn't have to face a hard, shiny new ball with the opposition strike bowlers at their freshest. I wonder how many SA fans think Aus's selectors are morons for not dropping Clarke?
