SA v Aus 1st Test

That aweful period between footy and cricket is officially over.

Aussie bowlers are bowling a relentless WACA line and length and getting the rewards. South Africa are in disarray!

You knew it was going to be a decent pitch when Philander didn't pull out with some kind of 'strain' after the pitch inspection. Biggest protector of his average since Michael Bevan.

 Yep, still in the back of the ute, just waiting for some extra muscle to assist with putting it on. My backs rooted at present.

 16:21 and all out, do we really want to be going out for hit just now? Probably end up 3 for at the close of play.

Such a frustrating player is Smarsh. There's never been a player I remember that makes a tonne and then follows it up by scratching around like an old chook. He usually follows it up with a pair so at least he is improving at age 33

That so many bowlers over step the mark.

Probably a bit like professional AFL players not kicking a goal 10m out directly in front.

Good to hear

I hope your info is good Scottland.
I am sure they won't throw the first test ? A long way back in a 3 test series.
I am not a huge base ball fan, but great to hear an underdog have a ripping win away from home in extra time.
Chicago will be rockin for a while to come.

Great knock from Warner. 97

Fri, 2016-11-04 12:02

Great knock from Warner. 97 from 100 is everywhere near as good as (if not better than) 110 from 160 when the opposition has only scored 242.

Time for Smarsh to free the shoulders and play a few more strokes now.

So much for the benefit of the doubt

I said it in the Warriors

Fri, 2016-11-04 19:56

I said it in the Warriors thread, unless you have a genuine all rounder ala Flintoff then fuck off the all rounder and play the best 6 batters, a keeper and your best 4 bowlers. The only exception there in recent years is Symonds who was good for at least a wicket and saving 20-30 runs due to his fielding alone.

Unfortunately Rod Marsh is on the crack pipe which was proven when he said he won't pick Bird because his batting isn't up to scratch. Makes you wonder how McGrath or Walsh ever made it...

 this is what happens when you take unfit and unrealiable bowlers into tests, they are trying to cover their asses if 1 breaks down by having the all rounder

 Is there nothing left in this WACA track for the bowlers? You can bet the Saffies will find something after they declare.
