**** ball, **** shot.

Few things- two matches isn't a series in my book.

You can take that up with the ICC

But while they say it's a series, it's a series!

(It's like me saying '3 tests isn't a series in my book - only 5 counts - doesn't matter what I think, it's what the rules dictate!)

Agreed that he could improve with an inswinger (perhaps he will? I doubt it) No reason to believe he won't be highly succesful anyway!!

McKenzie is the stand-in captain.

Bill Lawry immediately starts spraying him.

These cracks are very interesting... and would be more so if McGrath was still around.

Graeme Smith disagrees.

Siddle impressive this morning, Aussies bowling well.

 

[TazzX]

Has anyone mentioned yet that McDonald takes over the reigns as crickets ugly duckling from Styris? Poor bastard ... the ugly stick was really mean to him!

Johnson getting another wicket with a horrible ball :| COME ON KALLIS what were you thinking!

 

[mikeW]

LOL even Johnno was suprised it came back in.

McDonald isn't a patch on Bollinger in the ugly department

But Dougy has a new russian wig.

Ronald Weasley is a wizard with the ball. If Australia take more than 10 wickets this test, South Africa should be ashamed.

But Dougy has a new russian wig.

Is it actually a wig? What's the go with that? It's terrible. He looks like a middle-aged man with Downs Syndrome as it is, now it looks like some awful person has put a ridiculous wig on him as a cruel joke.

Put the pipe down!

 

[inbox24]

Man, Weasley looks like nothing more than a medium pace trundler with no swing and no pace. Reminds me of James Hopes. This is dire why didn't we go with Hilfenhaus, would've made about the same number of runs.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Yeah, McDonald will never play another test.

Yeah, it really is a wig. I agree it looks atrocious though.

 

[Boudica]

A 50 for Amla!

AB run out.
