*Official* England in South Africa

[Prince EWS]

It would be hilarious if Duminy spun South Africa to victory here on Day 5 after Harris bowled 36 overs for just two wickets.

 

[GIMH]

Haha that made me laugh hard for some reason.

 

[Prince EWS]

Ohh ffs, I like our lower-middle order, but they're not really ideal for this situation. Would prefer Giles-Hoggard types TBH.

Yeah, it's a shame Anderson's been used already; possibly more valuable than Swanneh and Broad in this situation

Yeah surley a chance that Harris might be dropped for a pace bowler for the next test, Duminy out bowled him two tests in a row.

Come on Bell, Keep fogetting we don't have the mighty Jimmy to come.

Don't forget that Swann played a massive role in our rearguard at Cardiff

 

[Jono]

Harris' little hop after he bowls a semi decent delivery is hilarious.

 

[GIMH]

I can't believe Collingwood only scored forty; it seemed like sooo much more. He deserved at least a half century for it. People ought to remember innings like this before moaning about how he always get dropped on the way to a ton; it was worth infinitely more than the scoreboard suggests.

I can only think of one person that moans about him getting dropped en route to a ton tbh

Doubt it for a couple of reasons. Firstly because he bowled so well in the first Test, and secondly because I doubt they have any quicks better than him anyway. It's not like Morkel or Ntini got dropped after two Tests of Kallis outbowling them, and that's happened a lot over the last year or so.

Yeah didn't really want to name names but that's who I was thinking of while typing that.

He thinks Colly's average flatters him greatly - I think innings like this, which he plays fairly regularly really, counterbalance that by being worth a lot more than their scoreboard value.

 

[King Pietersen]

Duminy's actually looking genuinely threatening, and is bowling far better areas than Harris who is still overpitching it. Bell needs to try and control the strike I think. We really should be able to survive 9.2 overs with 3 wickets in hand though.

 

[GIMH]

Duminy's had a much better series with ball than bat

 

[grecian]

If they give that out I'll murder someone.

 

[Jono]

That's a tough one for the third umpire!

Not out for mine. Commentators are wrong imo

 

[Nate]

Huge that. Correct decision probably made.

 

[Jono]

That lady not doing the stereotype of English with bad teeth any favours

 

[Jayzamann]

JP Duminy doing an MJ Clarke...

 

[Jono]

Take Harris off, bowl Steyn.

Come on Smith.

 

[Pothas]

What an awful ball that was.

 

[Nate]

Harris looks completely unthreatening, as he has done for the vast majority of this innings. Go over the wicket, or even better, bring Steyn on.

 

[Jono]

Ouch!
