DAVID Warner's meteoric rise continues with the dashing lefthander departing Sydney this morning to join the Australian squad for the second Test in South Africa.

Warner's elevation comes on the same day both Ian and Greg Chappell called for his inclusion to revitalise a badly beaten Test team.

Looks like:
Siddle OUT (omit)
Marsh OUT (inj)

Cummins IN
Khawaja IN

Khawaja in should happen as Marsh is still out, but dropping Siddle?? Was his form that bad in the first test??

No, but Pat Cummins >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Peter Siddle. In my opinion at least.
Khawaja in I like.
Warner in I do not like at all.

EDIT: Actually I don't mind Warner in :P

[PowerBug]

I don't think Warner will play. And i don't want him playing test matches either. Not yet anyway.

Johnson just got Smith!

Did too. He's been everywhere so far today, but landed one, Smith edges, and Pup takes it easily.
Smith c: Clarke b: Johnson 11

MITCH! :D

2/43

Kallis on his own at number 4 on the all time list of runscorers

Border was number 1 no more than 5 years ago

[PowerBug]

Oh no.

Watson off with a hammy.

So Warner gets a run on the ground.
Word is both Beer and Harris have gone home to prepare for the upcoming tests. Harris with soreness, Beer for the sake of it.

[roo boys!]

Getting a bit worried about Watto... :-\

Lunch: RSA 2/107

Kallis - Attacking 43 (33)
Amla - Just sitting there doing nothing

Lyon bowled the last one before lunch, went for 12. But don't blame him, blame Pup for bowling him. SHould've kept Johnson on, who was bowling quite well.
