any hope for a draw? Whats your guys thoughts?

No offence to you but rather the commentators.
WTF are you crying for rain on day 3 when your side is losing, they did it in the past 2 tests, thats pathetic imo!!

Dont play crap cricket and cry for rain!!!

I agree, im by no means looking for rain. I just want us to prove we are good enough to overcome the current situation by batting it out... right now if we dont lose kallis or AB by the end of the day i think we have a good chance of drawing.. if not winning the game. But we will see what the last session holds

I think Pontings smarter than that, if he sees SA playing for a draw by blocking and not scoring constantly he will exploit it like the last match.

I say keep wickets, keep the score ticking, after lunch tomorrow you play for the draw!

400 is still needed, I say play for it, you have 2 days to get it.

I say go for the fuskin runs, where did blocking get us last time out?

Go out with a bang and rather try and be hero's than look like a bunch of sissie girls afraid of losing and losing anyway.

Confucius says, man who is afraid to lose will lose :p

Well we have the time to get these runs and i think we know batting out the days is just not a possibility.

Yeah we must go for the win for sure, just musnt lose a wicket. Batting out the days not a possibility? I dunno hey, we could do it. We did it against england when we toured there to draw the game, but we did have prince :p . I think if it came down to it we could bat out whole of tomoz

Yes but batting out against england is not really to hard, do they any half decent bowlers?

I mean the windies can hit them for nearly 800 you must your bowling attack is piss poor.

when do you think we should start to tihnk of another amazing come back? I think ricky is getting slightly worried.

Don't think there's much chance of a win, we may fall about 50 runs short or so.

If we got close the Aussies will just bowl 3 feet outside off stump and set an 8 - 1 field.
They can also bowl bouncers or down the leg side, yada yada.

I'm a Neil Mac supporter, but now I'm also thinking he's a bit crap.

Alf he is not crap, he is a slump and any batsmen even sachin tendulkar have been where he is.

Sometimes you need to be dropped in order for you to find your form again.

Yep, he is in a crap slump.
At least his wife can console him.

Nice fight back today from the Proteas. Showing a bit of grit in the face of an inevitable series defeat. What's the weather forecast for Durbs tomorrow? Pissing down here in JHB...

I'm not sure we should be tampering with the team selection too much, less than 2 months ago they were more than capable of doing the business. It's all very well and fine to say drop this one and drop that one but who would the replacement be and are they necessarily going to be more successful?

For me Mickey is the weakest link but I've always maintained that..

Pumpkin i really hope they come out thinking that and do not come out like the last test and try and block :(

COME ON BOYS, PLAY POSITIVE LIKE BACK IN AUS.

Kallis 200 not out, could this be his time to hit his double ton?
