***Official*** Australia in South Africa + South Africa in Australia 2016/17

[Spark]

Clarke did one back in 2013.

Yeah this is why him suggesting it wasn't just comms talk, he genuinely would have done it as well. Man was a nutter with his declarations.

 

[Member Berry]

If that was the main reason behind Faf declaring, that is genius.

Think Faf would've preferred bowling to Warner under lights in a situation like this tbh. Get Warner out and the day goes massively in SA's favour.

 

[Starfighter]

It's been a busy first day for farce, hasn't it?

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

CSA wont change their mind... but deVillers could be the bigger man here and hand it over to Faf.

Hope so

I reckon Warner would have been very prone to nicking off in these conditions as well.

Warner will be in tonight

While that's true, no Warner ensures that even if they fail to take a wicket, they're probably not going to score at 6-7 rpo and take the game away. It's not like Khawaja and Renshaw and proven great players of swing.

 

[duffer]

Yeah, Renshaw is ****ing huge.

 

[Gnske]

Renshaw's forward lean gives me Guptill vibes

Please don't be like him

He doesn't have enough time to do that tonight anyway.

 

[Burgey]

Hoping for Renshaw to make the best nine since Rob Quiney

Yeah, was about to say...

 

[Furball]

Think the decision to declare is a poor one.

 

[mackembhoy]

Warne talking utter shite. Renshaw is 4 and half years younger than me.

I hardly watched Hayden bat so I doubt this lad did.

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Warne- " Renshaw looks organised and calm and organised."

He gets paid for this job.

 

[Daemon]

Can't wait for Howe to drop by, always cracks the shits at premature declarations

 

[Starfighter]

Could send in a night watchman. Although I don't think any our bowlers are suitable bats for one.

Hayden retired in 2009, not 1999.

think he might not have moved to australia when hayden retired

I heard he was ten? So he still would have caught a few years. Certainly he was old enough to have watched Hayden bat in England (though that would have admittedly been limited)
