Morkel reminds me so much of Broad with the bat. Not just regards to his build but the fact that he times the ball so sweetly on the off-side.

What are you on about, we are middeling most of these shots? Pak had a lot of edges even from the century makers

Did you also miss the countless Doosras that went down leg-side after the tail-enders nicked them?Wow a number 9 batsmen got two edges that went to the fence and ended up getting out for 10?? That is simply unheard of.

Not sure how you would call it a nick if they hit it leg side. And doubt it was more than a few times, so hardly countless. All I'm saying is we have not been lucky, none more than usual anyway. If you have been watching the tail bat, you would see Vernon, Robin and Morne all have played more genuine shots than false ones.

Reminds me of Pat Symcox's innings in this match, even more frustrating against an attack of Waqar, Shoaib, Mushtaq and Saqlain...

Brilliant by robbie P, we were looking at a 100+ deficit, but we have the momentum on our side now.

See off the new ball and then make runs, that should be the plan from here.

That is an innings any top order batsman would have been proud of. Brilliant, priceless knock.
SA favorites now imo even though they bat last. The next hour or so is absolutely vital. If Pakistan lose a couple of wickets early, they could panic and fold quickly. Fascinating test match.

Great fight by the S.A tail, Robbie P and Vernon are seen as all rounders in our domestic scene, so glad they have come to the party on the international stage, especially Peterson as he hasn't done a whole lot with the ball. On Morne, I have always thought he could be a decent batsmen if he really worked hard at it. Every now and again, like just now, he plays some real top shots. Could potentially become a bit like a Vettori or something.
