***Official*** South Africa in Australia 2012

I was expecting Aus to get a big score after they got some sort of a start on this great batting wicket, but now it is looking like they might heavily underperform here.

helmet?

 

[Burgey]

Only bowling at about 125 klicks, but getting sharp bounce.

Heavy balls looking like an asset at Adelaide. Ironic he's got his wickets by bowling full.

I wish he'd hurry up and get a load away then...

 

[benchmark00]

Nah, that was gash from Ponting really. The ball swung probably past his bat, it was no way unplayable.

If you think it only swung after his bat than I will just have to walk away.

 

[hendrix]

we must be watching from alternate universes.

In your universe, does David Warner have poo smeared above his upper lip?

 

[NUFAN]

So guys, lets just say the selectors wanted to make a change or two and dropped Quiney and the brilliant Ponting, who would you bring in.

Khawaja and Watson for me.

 

[andyc]

I have a bad feeling that today isn't Clarke's day.

Yeah, same. All the makings of a Clarke knock though - coming in at 3/not much, and has worn one on the body early on.

 

[Spark]

oooooh dear

 

[benchmark00]

Oh wow.

Kallis protecting his figures???????

 

[Spark]

Just needs to get hit in the jewels now

 

[benchmark00]

Remember no runners allowed in international cricket...

 

[Daemon]

I wish he'd hurry up and get a load away then...

Steyn and Morkel are going to get a serious fitness test now.

 

[Spark]

Steyn + Morkel + Kleinveldt + Tahir looks pretty thin...

 

[Burgey]

I was in shock for a few secs. I didn't know what had happened.

Comms were calling it a lethal delivery etc until they finally saw the replay.
Weirdest bowled I've probably seen.

Kallis WAG though. Getting wickets bowling fast at the age of 37, hats off.

And just showed us why you shouldn't do it.

No runner for you either, ****!

 

[centurymaker]

oh no...
South african's are falling apart..

 

[LongHopCassidy]

Dang. Smitteh to bowl a few dozen overs more this innings.

 

[heathrf1974]

Lucky break for the Aussies. Kallis was looking dangerous. What a fine player he is.

 

[Jono]

Haha kallis is a beast. Haters really can suck it, gettin top order wickets in the first session of a testin Adelaide. Just the cricketer of our generation.

 

[uvelocity]

never like seeing anybody get injured

 

[hendrix]

heart kallis.

Question:
what's happened to Tsotsobe and Parnell? Poor form? injured?
