South Africa tour of Australia, Oct - Nov 2016

[Neoprod]

I highly doubt the game will be finished before lunch. I think we will have to chase down a target below 100 to take victory...

Yeah, pitch was looking relatively easy towards the end there...they've gotten past the new ball and will probably face the easiest batting conditions of the match tomorrow. Discounting the rain, I can see this heading towards the last session on day 5.

Rain will decide the outcome of this match, but Aussies are broken and will struggle to reel in the target.

I expect an innings victory by maybe 30 runs.

 

[Dan C]

2 early wickets before lunch and we have them.

 

[Neoprod]

Abbott, you biscuit!

 

[vavyn]

Another one down she goes!!!

 

[Neoprod]

The boy can do no wrong...let him open if we chase, I say.

 

[Neoprod]

Loving this bowling...batsmen getting pressured ball after ball. Not much to leave, great lengths.

 

[vavyn]

Rabada is on fire

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Hope we can get an innings win. Was hoping for two quick wickets, but now it looks like it might be over shortly after lunch...

 

[vavyn]

2 more wickets for an inning win!!

 

[Neoprod]

I was not expecting this...I may get some sleep before work! How were those bouncers to Nevill and Smith? Brutal.

 

[NeonNinja]

FML! I'm loving this!

 

[vavyn]

That's GG!!

 

[Dan C]

Rain will decide the outcome of this match, but Aussies are broken and will struggle to reel in the target.

I expect an innings victory by maybe 30 runs.

Make that 80 runs and an innings .

Wełl done SA , I'm off to sleep.

 

[Neoprod]

Pwned! 246 runs in the match...that's not even a decent single innings. That bowling today was as good as anything I've seen as a group. All of them were accurate and threatening. It was brilliant.

 

[Neoprod]

One day rained out, Aussies batted 93 overs in total...wahahaha. Rain spent almost as much time at the crease.

Take a bow, Kyle Abbott. Take a bow, Kagiso Rabada. Take a bow, Faf du Plessis and the entire South Africa squad. A month ago, this team arrived in Australia without its captain and best batsman, AB de Villiers, who is at home injured. They lost their best bowler, Dale Steyn, to a serious injury barely a day into the campaign. And yet they have not only beaten Australia in the series, they have crushed them. Humiliated them.
