Australia vs South Africa (3 Test Series)

Am I the only one who can't stand Michael Clarke's commentary?

He is far from the worst imo. Has an excellent cricket brain and provides insight from the perspective of someone who has only recently left the game.

I can kiiiiiiinda understand it if you're talking about the way he talks. like he's teenage girl or something and he has that upward inflection

but I love the man so he could talk like Hitler and I wouldn't care. he has a great cricket brain

morning edit: guess that's not just limited to teen girls, reckon we all talk like that sometimes

Is it time for Voges to go too? His average is still the best in the world, but most of those runs came against the West Indies. In England and Sri Lanka he really struggled, and doesn't score runs down the order when the top order struggles.

I'd probably be dropping Marsh and Voges and bringing in Burns (he can play at 5) and Head/Stoinis.

Yes he has a terrible commentators voice but saying that I have never been a fan of him ever so could be a bit biased  :P

How does that much ego fit around one table? Warney, KP and Pup all at once  :o

Somebody sounds salty.  :P

[Bill Manspeaker]

a beautiful straight drive to bring up Duminy's fiddy

[Bill Manspeaker]

a drinks break fit for a king

Did not bowl at all this session.  Surely worth a go given the success of SA spinners yesterday.

[Torpedo10]

Marshy was probably our best bowler that session in terms of providing opportunities, wouldn't be surprised if Lyno got given a bowl first up after lunch.

[Bill Manspeaker]

wickets taken in the first session = 0
overs Lyno bowled in the first session = 0

coincidence? I THINK NOT

[Ringo]

FFS Smith bowl Lyon now. It is getting too late. Surely the fours off Hazelwood is the indicator.
Smith fail as C

[Bill Manspeaker]

...well... Lyno should have a wicket. not even sure you can call it a drop catch cos he didn't lay a flowerin finger on it!
