Morkel to Kumar, no run, dropped at gully! Dean Elgar. Straight to him at chest height and he floors it. Bhuvneshwar is backing awat as the short ball slants across him. Hangs the bat out and opens the face to guide it neatly in the fielder's direction, but he seems to have completely lost that

:crying:

175 run lead and we looked woeful in the first against the Indian seamers. This one is practically a foregone conclusion :crying:

It just doesn't seem possible to chase anything beyond the current lead. Yesterday I considered anything above 175 as virtually impossible. It's almost assured to be above 200. As you put it, it certainly looks like we're the masters of our own demise here.

The Saffers have bowled well in the 5 previous innings. This one, I think, has been under par.

Dreams of a series whitewash are turning brown. Faf must be furious.

Lekker k@k ne? :whistling:

More good news (for most of us):

Continuing with the theme of flushing down the bad in the ANC, party president Cyril Ramaphosa was recorded in a BBC interview as stating that there would be no amnesty for President Jacob Zuma. Ramaphosa stated after the question on Zuma gaining a Presidential pardon: "We have the rule of law in our country and people always want to see justice done without fear, without favour."

This thread needs something to perk up the mood... :eek:

Winning this match is becoming very tricky; I think that the only will have to be to score quickly as you can get out at any time, so hope AB (with an injury?) and QdK (out of form) can do it ..... And what's up with the fielding!?
