***Official*** Australia in South Africa

I didn't realise everyone in each state played cricket...

I had a feeling that on CW that statement would get pulled up. The general rule applies though, cricket is the biggest summer sport in each state. Numbers more to suggest that these states are bigger in pop. than NZ so we could expect them to be probably just as good if not better.

Edit: and territory

Superb knock, but see if the kid can play against an attack better than Boksburg Blind School Under 12 C Girls Paraplegics XI

An FC average of well over 60 on some very sporting decks this season suggests he has.

Hughes or Duminy?

 

[Matt79]

All good things come to an end. I think we have seen a star born on the big stage today (or read the ball-by-ball account on Cricinfo at least). (And yes, i know lots of people here have considered him a star since before he debuted in FC, but its a different thing to then produce at the highest level.

Hughes or Duminy?

I know Johnson runs in like a paraplegic, but I don't think he is that bad..

 

[Son Of Coco]

What is with the Cullinan baiting? Yeah he was a good batsman who couldn't lay a bat on the most talented bowler of all time.. Great

He's also an arrogant prick giving it to a bloke whose just scored 100...some things never change.

Aye.

I'll grant you they've been bad today. Ntini OK 1st session, Harris was tight excpet for the one over. Morkel dire, Steyn flat as a pancake.

 

[Trumpers_Ghost]

Really disapointed that Mitch didn't bat at 3.

Ponting would never go all-in on a pair of 4s, he needs to grow a pair

I don't think that many changes in the line up will be needed for the next test.

Rather see Ponting, Katich and Hussey each score big hundreds here and Mitch and the other quicks spend today and tomorrow with their feet up itbt....

Aye.

They won't bounce our batters in fear of return to sender from Siddle I still get excited thinking about just how intimidating that over was!

You're kidding, right?

Hah, love the follow through:

Tell me the right elbow isn't up there!

It's been a week - time to consider taking a cold shower...

Doesn't look out to me.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah didn't look out to me either, and there was nothing from hotspot despite Pommie raving about something being there.

 

[Burgey]

Doesn't look out to me.

And you're right.

 

[pasag]

No more referrals left for SA

What's Pommie banging on about there? Been crankin' with Perm I reckon.
