How do you drop a guy after he takes an 11fer? SA have a massive selection headache lol.

Still wouldn't write off Pakistan completely. Need Amir to be on the money.

Pakistan will be a handful tomorrow, but they are 30 or so runs short. No Abbas either is a disaster.

This is not a peak Saffer side, but if your seniors bat like morons Pakistan were always ****ed.

Masood batted nicely, although he has false dawns previously.

Best chance of him playing is if we drop Maharaj... can't see that at Newlands unless the pitch has the same colour as the outfield. Or they drop a batsmen which would be stupid.

The game is 75 to 25 SA imo. SA only get 75 because their batsmen are in **** form especially Amla.

If next match goes at the same pace, the fact I only have day 3 off in order to go to the match is going to be a problem... Match might be over!

Was Olivier the best RSA bowler? Feel like he was the worst quick when I was watching
Definitely the best in the first innings. Steyn bowled beautifully in the 2nd and was unlucky to not pick a bag. Rabada got off to a slow start but bowled some rippers at the end.

I guess folks here already talked about Babar Azam's 71. It was like watching Ian Bell at his peak, amazing shots!

The game really moves at a breakneck pace on these SA pitches, doesn't it? Love it.

South Africa has never lost a test chasing under 150 to win in final innings in 100 years.

I worry because there is always time for a first. And in this week my football club lost a home fixture to a club for the first time ever in 35 home fixtures. The worry is on.

Flawed batting lineups and good attacks help with that obviously. But runs do come at a fast clip when batsmen get set. All in all, exciting stuff.

As I have been saying for Markram. Seriosuly hope they ask someone like Graeme Smith to speak to him. Just to get a feel where he is mentally. Just chat about opening the batting in SA and the tough task it is. Game plans etc

I don't know quite what is up with him, seems to be falling over a lot.
