Your fault
South Africa lead by 83 runs with 0 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

 

[Arzy]

Pity, well at least its something, the pitch seems to be aiding the bowlers, maybe we can get some benefit this morning.

 

[Devill]

It's a low-scoring match... Average scores are low and suggest that 250 is just about the average for the first innings. I was trying to say that there is no way that England can score 300 plus in their second innings, if the first innings is already so low. This is just my opinion though. Under better conditions, I think things would be different.

well sa just scored 314, so i guess england scoring 330-ish is not impossible....

nothings impossible... just highly unlikely

raining at the moment, clearing up though, and the word is that the air is quite damp, so should mean some swing with the new ball for us.

They can do it, but we still need to score less than they do.

Raining anyway...

 

[Devill]

I think poms will get a lead of 250-ish and we will get it with 5 down.

Lol, thats why i guessed we win it by 5 wickets

they hit 330-ish we have to get 250-ish....

Anyway wonder if steyn will be ready for the next test....

 

[DJ...]

I reckon Steyn will be there - I really wish they were able to drop Ntini to make space for Gunther in the team but I doubt that is likely to happen...

Morkel bowling right arm over the sightscreen should do the trick.

Don't forget that this was the 1st innings. In 2nd innings, teams usually score less. But we'll see how it pans out.

I wish for that to happen as well!

Will have to wait and see though. They might just try and work Duminy in there then.

Yes and that is why its called a guess and not an estimation

We need a left arm swing bowler....

 

[Hogrod]

I have a feeling Vaughan is to make a double century. He's had enough time to get his eye in over the past couple of week, he's just been teasing the bowlers.

 

[mercurial]

Are you high boy?

 

[WonderBob]

Are you high boy?

I reckon Aleem Dar is high, and blind. How the fook was that not out??

I'm at work so I'll have to check later. Which bowler and batsmen?

 

[Arzy]

1.1 Nel to Cook, no run, huge appeal first up, that looked dead and the South Africans can't believe that hasn't been given...coming round the wicket and strikes Cook low on his front pad, it looks even more out on the replays. Cook's got away with that big time

That sucks...
