Pakistan Tour of South Africa 2018/19

This is getting ridiculous....

 

[SeamUp]

How embarrassing. I don't think I've seen this from an SA team before.

 

[TheJammyTurtle]

Won’t be long before we some filthy spin from Markram and Elgar I guess

This is getting ridiculous....

and it's not England!

 

[Bahseph]

Series being alive or not, this is easily the most amateur fielding performance I've seen from ANY team for as long as I can remember. Otis does not look happy

... not used to this. How do you deal with it?

 

[TT Boy]

This is incredible.

 

[StephenZA]

Hopefully Elgar reading the riot act in that drinks break....

Could try switching over to the India/Aus game - sadly MSD just dismissed, but interesting nonetheless

 

[OverratedSanity]

Farcical from SA this morning. Redefining sloppiness in the field.

 

[TT Boy]

Can’t blame de Kock for going for everything. He has always done it, it’s come off and how many catches has Amla shelled in recent years? Too many to remember but that was amateur hour. Good news is Steyn is back on the field.

 

[StephenZA]

About time....

 

[Starfighter]

Sounds like a really 'interesting' hour.

When did the bowler going back to the stumps stop being a basic of the game? It's unacceptable off a two.

 

[SeamUp]

Duanne Double

 

[Starfighter]

Pakistan are probably still gonna Pakistan.

 

[Stefan9]

Only bright spark is even with SA being terrible Pakistan are still 54/4

After we got them down 2 last night, I did not think that the Pakistan batsmen would get past 200. The SA bowlers are totally in the Pak batsmens heads.

But after that batting display yesterday afternoon; this first hour was truly abysmal when we should have been trying to come out strong. I say this not against the bowlers. Steyn and Philander were threatening and on target the entire time.

 

[TT Boy]

Since tea yesterday, we've had 11 wickets for less than 100 runs with a R/R below 2. What surface was Markram batting on?
