North out for 10 though might be saved by the fact Khawaja didn't go on and make a century.
Best first-class bowling figures. Best were 3/49 before this.Must be O'Brien's best figures for SA, just taken his 4th.
Absolute bin.Surely that's the end for Mussey.
Yeah Johnson's batting form of late has been pretty terrible. When he is at the crease these days he looks lazy, and like he doesn't want to put any effort in.Johnson gets a duck too. If Hauritz make our Test team, he really should be moved up to number 8.
Exactly, one good innings. He has averaged a Marcus-North-esque 11.07 this year. Johnson was once seen as an all-rounder, then a bowling all-rounder, and now it seems he is just a bowler who is handy with the bat.He played one good innings in India tbf.
I have always seen Johnson as a bowler who could bat, even after he made that 100 not out in SA. He just doesn't have the technique to be anywhere near an all-rounder.Exactly, one good innings.

Same, but I reckon if he worked on his batting more, and actually tried to adopt the mentality of an allrounder, he could push his average up to 30.I have always seen Johnson as a bowler who could bat, even after he made that 100 not out in SA.

Would rather he average under 30 with the ball than over 30 with the bat, tbh. If he does that and just bombs the occasional ball into the stands, happy with that.Same, but I reckon if he worked on his batting more, and actually tried to adopt the mentality of an allrounder, he could push his average up to 30.
Yeh but if the reason his batting has suffered is because of an extra focus on bowling, unfortunately it doesn't seemed to have worked as of yet.Would rather he average under 30 with the ball than over 30 with the bat, tbh.
