Steyn is such a gun. Awesome five overs by him. South African commentary my favourite in the world.

Btw, I'm in Singapore and they have Neo Sports and this 24/7 cricket channel, yet they are not showing this match!

I'm Indian, so don't get me wrong I love seeing 20 replays and highlight shows of the WACA test, but FFS there's a live cricket match going on. If you're a cricket channel, you show live int'l cricket.

Haha nah I used to hate Nel circa 2003, but then I realised how awesome a character he is.

Yeah, I don't mind Nel as a character in the game. I can see why people don't like the way he acts but it doesn't really bother me that much. He's a fast bowler after all.

I've taken a real disliking to him as a cricketer of late though. His action is ugly, he doesn't swing the ball and, of late, he's actually bowled a bunch of crap and taken a stack of wickets with absolute pies despite being carted generally, all the while keeping a better bowler out of the team.

Albie Morkel: under-rated for mine. I've seen a lot worse allrounders for various teams of late, including South Africa, and he cops a bit of stick from some members here. Useful cricketer IMO.

International Captain
Windies really deep in the mire here. Runako has to be one of the worst top-order batsmen in international cricket, but I hope he makes a few today, if only to rescue this match as a contest.

Problem might be getting someone to stay with him.

Wasn't bowling at all well against NZ, and come to think of it batting was poor too. It's good to see him doing well again though!

Neo Sports and Espn-Star don't have a monopoly on cricket though. The game is coming on Ten Sports. Zee (which has bought Ten Sports I think), Sony show cricket too (Sab TV - part of the Sony network was showing Zimbabwe-Bangladesh). There is of course DD too. ;)

Albie has improved bowling wise. If he continues his level, I am sure he will be rated higher. Am certainly liking the improved Albie a lot.
