Aussie Tour Of Seth Effrika.

It has to be like tennis and rely on technology rather than just another human with the ability to fence sit or make a mistake.
 
Crap, looks like Ronald's still in the mix for the rest of the series. Apparently Bollinger won't be available for the 2nd Test due to a stomach muscle strain. Brett Geeves to head over as a back up. Hopefully it won't matter if they decide to play a spinner.
 
Bring in Hopes! He's in great form for Bulls at the moment. 50 runs and 5/15 in NSW second innings.

Fark Geeves. We've already got a Tasmanian and a Tasmanian that's really a blue.
 
Saffas looking a bit too comfy at the moment. Pitch is doing jack shit compared to the last 3 days, looks to have dried out a bit now. Still early days, but our blokes haven't looked remotely threatening since about the 4th over of the innings.
 
I am very nervous at the moment. About an hour of play left in the day, would be much more comfortable if we had them 3 for by stumps.
 
No matter what qaulity or lack of we have in our attack, what is Australia's problem with defending huge 4th innings totals? If the Saffas get this, which has now become quite possible, that will be the 3 biggest 4th innings run chases in history against our name - 2 of which coming within a couple of months of each other.

Perth all over again!

totally agree but I have hope in an inspired bowling performance on the last day or some rain to save the Aussies...

Aussie cricket side has turned into chokers..
 
Early start again on the last day. So there'll be 98 overs, 276 required at a rate of 2.8 and 8 wickets in hand for the Saffas - on a pitch that as of yesterday looked to be settling down at touch.

First session will be massive. If they only need 160-170 as of lunch as still have a bag of wickets in hand, then we're screwed. And the first casualties should be the selectors.
 
All 3 quicks have had a dig so far this morning and at the moment they aren't causing many problems. New ball due in about 15 overs - could be our last chance if a few don't fall in the next hour.
 
need a cheap wicket before the new pill otherwise Kallis and Amla will be set and the new ball will be like a walk in the park for them.
