Virat approves of Aiden Markram. Love it that even with all the cricket he plays he is watching two of his teams biggest rivals in battle.

He is the saviour of test cricket after all

Tampering should be legal anyway

What sorts? Can we hammer spikes into the ball allowing the bowler to cause punctures to the batsman? Some slippery slopes are indeed slippery...

Yup. By the end of the match you should have tampered it so much it should literally be the size of a #cherry

We should excuse Bancroft because he is an Aussie

Think Markram shares the high bat position with Kohli, making it all the more easy for Virat to like his batting. Solid pull too.

Excellent first post, HonestAussie from India.

You been mixing up which balls Bancroft has been tampering with I think.

Away with thee! Sockpuppet!

No I don't like to ignore the voices of the lesser heard unlike the big bad three

You've just contradicted yourself though, not unlike the Big bad three.

Heh.

That kind is reserved only for one man

 

[HonestAussie]

I sense that smith would break down and beg for mercy

Imagine if it was Precam? Would be such a glorious return.

Bar Cummins, the Australian attack has looked pretty tame

 

[fredfertang]

Finally I can watch this series - looks like there are a fair few in the ground - wasn't there much gnashing of teeth earlier in the series about a poor turnout?

Define tampering first. Will cricketers be allowed to carry pin-hammers and scissors changing the shape of the ball from round to pyramidal so that it digs a hole on the pitch and stays like that?

Newlands always has good crowds. PE and Durban are dire for attendances.

Lyon's having a weird series for a spinner. Has bowled better in the first innings than the second so far.

In fairness they have played a lot of cricket in the last few months and are probably running on empty. Been an unchanged attack for ages.
