2nd best to the Argentinians??
I'm tempted, but I'll safely resign to the assumption that you've been a victim of a rugby media blackout over the last fortnight.

35/1 after 8 overs. Proteas going ok. Miller will have to do something for the first time in this tour to Zimbabwe. Otherwise Rilee must get a chance to score a run or complete a hattrick of ducks int he next game against Zimbabwe.

A bit slow I feel. We need a Marsh counter. We will see later!

Luke: "For a long time I genuinely thought Prior was older than Haddin by a few years. Was shocked to find he is 4 years younger!"

That take by Haddin a sign that the Aussies brought that "over my dead body" attitude of Ricky Ponting to this game.

The last win was brilliant, but psychologically, I think it's important for the Proteas to win this game. AUS had just arrived then, while Steyn, Morkel&Tahir, "key" components of the attack were rendered useless today. Batsmen have to compensate to justify the rankings leap.

Not Tahir. 1 Wicket and going for 4.2/over in a game where the Aussies scored at 5.64?

Ffs.


15.4

Lyon to de Villiers, OUT, swept once more, this time in the air, taken at backward square leg, perhaps AB wanted to hit that over the fielder there, but instead he hits it straight at his chest, easy for Bailey, a massive wicket this, South Africa in a hole now, with their three most prolific batsmen in recent series gone, this is a test for middle and lower-middle order

AB de Villiers c Bailey b Lyon 6 (19b 0x4 0x6) SR: 31.57

Very true.

Where is OGroteKoning? Electric needs to shock him! Was looking forward to a ZIM-Proteas final.

How many ranking points will the Proteas lose/Aussies gain, if the result is a big win for Australia?

I put it to you all that punchbag Faf will anchor a successful run chase and henceforth become the darling of all South African cricket fans.

McLaren is soaking to much balls without rotating. Then takes a single of the last ball of the over.

Richardson to McLaren, OUT, goes for a heave and hands it to midwicket! It was slightly full outside off stump and he went for a cross-batted heave to the leg side, didn't middle and it went straight to Steven Smith
R McLaren c Smith b Richardson 24 (41b 2x4 0x6) SR: 58.53
