England tour to SA: 2015

Didn't watch any cricket today due to work...caught the extended highlights now. Big ups to Kyle Abbott for coming onto bowl...that took alot of heart. He's risking a more severe injury and that takes some bravery.

Not down there but weather report suggests possibility of rain later in the day.

There is always a chance of a thunderstorm late in the day, should be fine for most of the day and then it just depends on luck whether the t storm comes during or after play.

Dam Quinny need to take those. Given root 2 lives...

Morkel gets rid of taylor thought.

 

[Arthur]

Taylor walks. Should be over by lunch.

Elgar takes Root. This is fun.

 

[Agent_Smith]

[Creag]

Early breakthroughs ... but why isn't Rabada bowling?

 

[DanDango]

Who cares. We're pulling a Wanderers on them...

 

[Neoprod]

lol, England are having their Wanderers moment...happy to see it.

Hope we can pull this one through.

We look so much better with Cook there in our batting line-up, but he can probably not last that long. Our bowling was doing fine the whole series, so it is our batting that is the issue currently.

Explain please? You referring to his stay at the crease or his time in the Protea setup due to his age? If it's the latter, he has a good 3 years (at least!) in him still. Plenty of time to uncover a long term replacement.

"Have the England players got golf booked for this afternoon?" I suspect Trevor might have something lined up for them, if this goes south, James

Protea set up. Hopefully he can last for 3 or so years. Sachin lasted till 39, but he was Sachin and he also struggled at the end of his career.
