You just know there's going to be at least one game where SA have a brain explosion. I mean, they had one against SL's attack.

Just been a bit of a weird test match, hyped up as the best 2 bowling attacks going at it and for the most it's been the batsmen show, then the SA's decided to show up and we didn't.

Whatever happens I'll back us to come back much stronger next test.

We have a habit of bouncing back well. be interesting to see if we can. Might yet save this one anyway.

The shop is closed.

Next test at Headingley and I'm not too sure how I feel about that, not been a great ground for us on the whole and can be a pudding to bowl on as well.

Yes we have and like you say this one isn't over yet, these two need to see us till lunch tomorrow you'd have thought.

I bet Saker will have been pulling what hair he's got out this test.

SA has more skill level to pick up wickets on dead pitches like this

Oh God. Can't bear to watch the Open. Need an Aussie to choke.

To be fair he is trying hard.

 

[Valer]

Lucky it didn't go to AbD

 

[Jacknife]

Can't believe what he's just done there, the ****ing sweep, no need to play it.

The first attempt should have made him put the shot away.

 

[Spikey]

wonderful stuff from Imran. Strauss was struggling

 

[BoyBrumby]

I've seen it, but I don't believe it.

Sweeping spinners, eh? Where did we try that, I wonder?

 

[Spikey]

but yes, why do england batsmen keep on sweeping

 

[Jacknife]

How far did he have to reach it as well.

Couldn't have made a worse go of this even we tried, forcing the shot again, we haven't learned from the 1st innings.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Totally premeditated, wasn't it?

Ugly, ugly, ugly.

Ravinder doesn't suggest permanence either.

Need Colly.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

WHY sweep. Have they not learnt yet?

Time for Ravi to make or break his career.

 

[Jacknife]

Shot.

 

[Valer]

Kinda wanna see a Ravi 100 / or n.o.
