Australian cricket tour of South Africa September/October 2026

[Gudnews]

Would love to have Muthusamy's batting in the tuck right now. Maharaj would be the one to miss out on revision.

Why hardly any bouncers to the tailenders?

Cummins really struggled when he faced them.

 

[cavedog]

We have completely lost momentum and now our openers are baking in the boiling sun with humidity and running after balls rolling into the boundary.

If we can't finish this off soon, I'm not so sure we will be able to at least match the AUS first innings.

Need a wicket before lunch, FFS...

 

[stefan9]

Our performance has been as bad as kingsmead's attendance...

 

[Mike7]

Seamers have been ok but the spinners have been crap.

 

[sand_man]

Hmmmm.... It appears conditions for batting have improved significantly. We will need to see what the Proteas do in their 1st innings. Batters need to put in a shift. Momentum and advantage has shifted to aus.

 

[Nerfherder]

Ugg... this tail.

How the hell is Renshaw over 100 ?

Ugg... this tail.

How the hell is Renshaw over 100 ?

He has played well.

 

[Nerfherder]

He has played well.

Has been the anchorman for this innings. Saved Aus from a embarasing innings.

I don't think it's been that bad. It just feels like spin means nothing and the seamers doesn't have any more tricks up their sleeves to get these last few wickets so the game has gotten comfortable for Australia and we are just waiting for them to make a mistake. If that is the plan this Aussie tail might just bat the entire day.

My hopes for 250/260 shattered

You mean for Renshaw right, right??

 

[SlowInternet]

You mean for Renshaw right, right??

Lol

 

[Neoprod]

They've already got a first innings score that usually wins matches in Durban...bring on the rain

 

[Mike7]

Turning this off. Absolute shitshow. Embarrassing!!

Test Matches @ Kingsmead since 2010:

Basically, we have to bat really well in the first innings to avoid defeat here. Winning it from here is pretty much out of the picture now.

 

[Nerfherder]

Renshaw who hasn't made more than 50 before is on 189

 

[Nerfherder]

0-1 oFFF sake
