***Official*** England in South Africa 2015/16

[MrPrez]

This is bloody embarrassing. This score will quite possibly reach 600.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

stokes somehow has all the cbf of jesse ryder while still actually giving a ****

 

[Biryani Pillow]

This is bloody enjoyable

I wonder if the 2nd day of a Test has ever started at such a high scoring rate.

I doubt it.

And that was an amazing shot

 

[Shady Slim]

i think you know what time it is boys

 

[Cabinet96]

175 for none off the first 22.1 overs of this ball.

 

[superkingdave]

Stokes needing 12 for a century in the morning session

 

[91Jmay]

Well this is the best thing I've ever seen. This is the type of partnership we in theory have in the tank but no one ever thought we would see.

 

[Stapel]

Ouch!

Maybe against a Bangladesh or West Indies not against the number 1 ranked side away.

 

[Howe_zat]

You can tell it's a good session for batting when all the posts are just updates on numbers

 

[Garson007]

Go for 700.

 

[MrPrez]

Maybe against a Bangladesh or West Indies not against the number 1 ranked side away.

In fairness, this isn't close to the preferred bowling attack of the number 1 side. It's more like batting against SA A.

So in Morris' interview at the end of play yesterday he made a real point about having bowled too short on this pitch and that they'd need to bowl fuller today. So...what happened to that?

 

[Cabinet96]

Gonna be boring and say it should probably be calmed down now. Need to be ruthless.

Edit: Or you can just hit the next two balls for six. Guess that counts a ruthless...

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Is he trying to clear the mountain?

 

[Gnske]

Man, I was going to say as Stokes brought up his 100 that a 200 from him would be good fun, didn't think it would be coming this soon.

They bowled about 10 half volleys in the first two overs and got smashed

 

[MrPrez]

Amla had BETTER score big. He owes the Protea supporters after this **** captaincy.

Party pooper.

When the new ball was taken Stokes had 42 and Bairstow 26. Now it is 181 and 81
