Hope they collapse now :( FFS I think 300-350 is a par score.
have to agree
letting them pass 350 would make winning the game real hard
unless we can successfully bat at 1 day mode

if we don't play well then at least the weather will help us out :)
but if we do play well then the aussies could get off the hook depending on the rain from sunday to monday... catch 22 ...

i hope the rain stays away though ...

I was at the ground yesterday. We watched from the unity stands for about an hour as a mega storm moved in and then literally stopped about 5km from Wanderers and proceeded to pound the area to the south. After they called for light all hell broke loose and the skies over JHB erupted. That was some mammoth rain.

What a kark day of cricket for SA. Was at the stadium again, so bloody depressing. Argh. I left early, just couldn't take the pain anymore.

Aside: they announced that only 2000 tickets are left for tomorrow, so it should be a cracking atmosphere.

hey man, thats cricket. Dont take it so personal!! :)

should never rally judge a team based on one days play (although admittedly, its been 2 sub par days in a row). We have a chance now to comeback into the game, and if we come back from 2/2 and 49/3 to win or draw the game, it will be seen as a great fightback. Thats why I watch TEST cricket, tests you (as spectator and players) to the ultimate.

In AUS we won from these situations, and that's what made the series victory so much better. what sport is about. No fun when you just walk over every opponent in your path.
