No Steyn for SA, a shame I was looking for de Wet and Steyn to open the bowling for SA.0

I know you're on a wind up and hate cricket but we won the Ashes, and just beat SA in the one dayers so how are we under achieving?0 -
We'll lose FACT only won the ashes by drawing and I hate life blah blah blah0

It strikes me that this is a series between he best team in the world and the team that's just beaten Australia in the Ashes. I can't see how that can be regarded as "Underachieving".
I know you're almost always wrong every time you post a comment about cricket, but I wondered if you might have a good reason for getting it wrong this time.0 -
No we didn't, we won 2-1 so MEH!0

We beat them 2-1. If we'd drawn the Aussies would have retained it.0 -

1. The electronic sight screen which switches from "sponsor logo" to "white" has broken down and we're waiting for the groundstaff to drape a white sheet over it, so the game can continue.
2. The "hot-spot" technology - as well as other technology advantages - is not being deployed for this series as the S African Board of Cricket chose to save some money.
3. The 2010 FIFA World Cup takes place in South Africa.

SA 234-4 80 Overs.
Taken New Ball.............0 -
No wickets taken recently then guys ? :-)0
-
We've taken more than they have, so far.0
-
262-4 at close0
-
262/4 at stumps, should have done better with the new ball, but to restrict SA to less than 3 an over isn't bad going. A couple of quick wickets tomorrow and it could yet prove to be a strong position.0

Strange to only name 4 bowlers, especially with injury doubts. Really needed Wright in my opinion.0
-
Hmmm... Wright as one of four or one of five? And, in either case, who would you drop to include him?[cite]Posted By: AshTray[/cite]Strange to only name 4 bowlers, especially with injury doubts. Really needed Wright in my opinion.0 -
I suppose you'd have to leave Bell out? I would have him in addition to the others as I know SA have a strong batting line up, otherwise Sidebottom and just have 5 specialist bowlers. I'm not a fan of 4 bowlers, especially when they aren't all fully fit.0

Considering we have both Broad and Swann who aren't far shy of being all rounders, I think it'd be reasonable to drop a batsman for a 5th bowler (preferably one who can bat a bit as well)0

Who though? It's really easy to say we should pick "x", but forevery"x" here has to be a "y" left out.[cite]Posted By: Sussex_Addick[/cite]Considering we have both Broad and Swann who aren't far shy of being all rounders, I think it'd be reasonable to drop a batsman for a 5th bowler (preferably one who can bat a bit as well)0 -

Very slow scoring. I hope that doesn't mean dodgy conditions for when we bat!!0 -

England 58/1 off 11 overs, taking advantage of some loose bowling.0
-
88/1 at stumps...0

Very dull test.0

I'm a bit worried about Cook at the moment, had a bad Ashes and a bad start here. Denners has got to be next in line if Cook gets dropped?0
