Yeah, I get what you mean, more people would usually find fault with Kallis's innings than shower him with praise.

4 bad decisions in 2 session. 1 against the batting team 3 vs the bowling side. How can these two have a career is beyond me its not even like they are just having a bad day.

Kallis always get out first thing in the morning so unless he hits it tonight then I highly doubt he will get the elusive 200. Be awesome if he could finally get that monkey off his back mind. :)

Under-appreciated innings, this, like so many of Kallis's. South Africa get sent in and Kallis comes out at 6/2. Shortly after, they're 33/3. Kallis peels off a ton. No-one cares.
If it was from SRT, RTP, KP, BCL then people would have shown their appreciation. Its Kallis - the super bore! Why would anyone care?

But anyways, take a bow champ for No.37 :cool:

Expect anything around 140-160 from him today.

No its not in this game apart from Gul none of them first teamers the batsman should have been on a high from the last game you always beat first in sub cont unless there are extreme circumstances and Pakistan strength has always been get the runs on the board and then defend.
Their bowling attack for this game was Gul, a debutant, the worst regular specialist bowler in Test history and a left-arm version of Nathan Hauritz. Their batting is bad but I don't think it's any worse than their bowling lineup in this match.
Fair enough.
