    Book the plane and get this lot back home. 
  • Sick to death of win toss bowl.
    Flat wicket, lightning outfield, baking hot.
    Moronic.

    Despite what Ward says, Bairstow is not one of our better fielders now. He is still too mindful of his injury.

    Let's hope none of our other bowlers get injured!!!
    Can you stop doing this please?  ;)
    If I say that you are going to win the lottery tonight, would that help? 
    Do I still have to buy a ticket?

    Both Hendricks and VDD have reached their 50s

    Yes - I'm good but I'm not that good!

    By the sound of things I'm glad I can't watch the game. 
    We will struggle to keep the Saffers to about 320.
    Probably more if we can't take some quick wickets

    Rashid coming on. This is a massive phase of the game.

    We'd definitely take 320 right now. Saffers have still got Markram, Klaassen, Miller and Jansen to come.

    And he bowls two long hops in his first over and ends up going for 10

    Sounds like it's going to come down to how Rashid goes.

    The trouble is that not only is Topley off the pitch but Rashid and Wood, our two best other bowlers, have gone for 40 off 4 overs. The Saffers are content with taking six singles an over off Root which, bizarrely, is actually respite from the rest!

    VDD tries to slog sweep Rashid and only succeeds in hitting it straight up - caught by Bairstow

    125-2 off 19.4

    We really did not need Bavuma falling ill. Hendricks is on 81 (68) and has just smashed Root for 16 in one over

    156-2 off 23

    Very good over from Atkinson, replacing Root, goes for just two

    Rashid makes Hendricks play on with the wrongun

    Topley is out warming up on the sidelines with is finger taped up. I don't think that he will be able to bowl with that on.

    A review for caught behind. The bowler, Atkinson, wasn't in the least bit interested but Buttler opts to waste a review.

    192-3 off 30. Rashid has been our best bowler to date but has just three of the final 20 to bowl

    Ball is absolutely smashed by Markram off Wood to Malan at cover. Malan can't keep hold of it but he is probably lucky that the ball didn't do any damage to him.

    He's been bowling at 45mph in order to tempt the Saffers. That's about as slow as any spinner in world class cricket but it is definitely working. So far anyway.

    Wood has been poor today. Figures now of 5-0-53-0

    Rashid is off the pitch as he looks like he is struggling in the heat
