ain't that the truth. You can always, ALWAYS rely on Hashim.

#Banker.

We'd be screwed without #. To many soft dismissals. The AB one was the worst, that should not be happening at this level.

Mazher Arshad: "Hashim Amla reaches 20 Test centuries in just 122 innings, fastest by a South African."

Wonderful attribute and success story for a humble man.

Wonderful attribute and success story for a humble man.

Even more impressive considering he averaged 25 after 14 tests. The man has been playing out of his skin in recent years...

What happened to faf?

 

[Wall]

What happened to faf?

caught at second slip. Ball turned sharply.

 

[Creag]

Zulfiqar Babar to Peterson, OUT, through the gate and make that three for Babar! Bowls from over the wicket to the left-hander, lands it outside off and he gets some generous turn off the rough, Peterson was forward and looked to push at it and left a gap between bat and pad

Just EISH!!!

 

[Electric]

And another

 

[Creag]

This is becoming a frigging procession! Don't these wombats know how to hold a bat anymore? Happens everytime we have some time off and away from the game. Irritates me intensely and immnsely!

/rant off

Philander departs :|

 

[Cius]

Amla has scored more than the rest of them combined. Sheesh, he is carrying us out there.

 

[phoneJunky]

Anything over 250 will be good after that start we had. Hopefully we can push it closer to the 300 mark. Hopefully their batsmen are still so fragile.

 

[Wall]

I hope we get to 300.

Just watched the reply of AB's dismissal. I cannot beleive how poor that was by the batsmen and how casual the Pakistan fielders were in effecting it. Kudos to them.

Bad lets hope we will reach 270

 

[Devill]

Two close calls for Amla regarding run outs..... AB screwing himself and Smith not looking like he is up to scratch....

Well at least we know the pitch is not an easy one to bat on thus if our bowlers can bring their A game we could possibly still get out of the first innings with a lead.
