Australias Tour of South Africa #2

[Bill Manspeaker]

need a bit of MJ Clarke 6/9 magic

[BB67th]

4 short midwickets in a test match. There must have been at least a dozen edges in this match that have fallen short of the slips. The only way to get out is bowled, lbw or caught off a bad shot. Horrible pitch for cricket. Never going to get a result.

Groundsmen should not be able to prepare a pitch like this just because the home team lost the first match.

[tbagrocks]

I'll take a draw from here on this pitch. stop the runs, let them eat up time. go to the final test where the best the Saffies can hope for is a drawn series

just bat well... and keep batting...

long way to go I know. just thinking out loud

it is a 3 test series right? :P

Personally just never saw the point of a three Test series, especially with top nations battling it out

[Bill Manspeaker]

yeah it's flowerin bizarre mate. last time we went there it was only a 2 test series I'm pretty sure... the flower is that

1 vs 3? 5 test series please

[BB67th]

We don't tend to have 5 test series with South Africa, because 5 test series can only really be scheduled in the middle of summer over the Boxing Day period. Seeing as both countries love their Boxing Day cricket, there is never a place for a 5 test series.

Gazza you beauty!

[GoLions]

Lyon!

Fantastic innings by AB though, this is why he's the number 1 batsman in the world.

[Bill Manspeaker]
