2007/2008 WI tour to SA thread

both prince and AB with centuries. Gibbs' score looks very out of place.

556/4 declared
 
South Africa declared: 556/4d (120.0 ov)

Min overs remaining 11.0
 
We not making them play enough.

There is movement, but they starting outside offstump, and when we make them play its too short. They just wasting the new ball.
 
Lovely hot day here in Durban... bring on the cricket... final day??

PS Farewell Polly, thank you for all the memories over the years! May your last innings end with a 5 for...

Great news, lets hope we can wrap it up today yes, SA wasn't particularly affective with the new ball yesterday, wasted it a bit, openers weren't made to play enough... got to make this new ball count...
 
Game over - SA win by an innings and 100 runs :D :D :D.

F@cking load shedding since 4.15 pm here so I missed the end :mad:

Just checked the score on my phone :o

Same here. :mad:

Had to listen to commentary through my phone. Polly held it together at the post match presentation. :D It was a good series, WI put up a decent fight, that first test win will do them a lot of good.

Next stop, Pro 20 on Friday. Can't wait. :D
 
Nice result. :)

Player of the match AG Prince (South Africa)
Player of the series DW Steyn (South Africa)
 
123 not out but it could have gone to Smith for his 147, Dale for his 6wkts and 1 in the 1st innings. Prince was undefeated so he is a worthy winner...

Ok. I just thought it would go to Smith, because he probably had the biggest impact on the WI demise with his high run rate. But sure all three you mentioned did a sterling job.
 
Prince seemed surprised to get it, they probably tossed a coin to see who would get it.
But doesn't matter.
We've got a good one series to look forward to.
