1st Match - England v South Africa at The Oval

[Burgey]

De Kock looks like he’s going to do that Warner half-pull short leading edge thing and top edge one

 

[stephen]

Poor captaincy by Ellen Greybeard removing the slip.

 

[hazsa19]

Ball looks just fine coming onto Amla’s bat.

 

[stephen]

That was a nasty amount of bounce.

 

[SeamUp]

Archer is such an addition to this England team. He almost completes it (what they were lacking).

 

[MrPrez]

That'll wake you up.

Good to see Amla playing some good strokes though. Hopefully he's truly turned the corner.

 

[stephen]

Wow that didn't look like a hard enough hit to result in a concussion.

 

[Groundking]

That's a blow for them if he can't be deemed fit again.

 

[Malcolm]

145 km/h

 

[StephenZA]

Amla not catching a break at the moment...

 

[MrPrez]

Poor Hash.

Golden opportunity for Markram though. Hopefully he'll take it.

 

[Borges]

I think he will bat again; didn't look all that bad.

Loved the way Sanga described:

"Helmet manufacturers advises that if a helmet is struck by the ball, then it should be replaced. The structural integrity of the helmet has been compromised."

They should just make better helmets.

 

[StephenZA]

They are better helmets.

 

[StephenZA]

Only bowler that really scares me in the Eng line up is Moeen.... SA suck at playing against him.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Who invited the pigeons to the game?

They should just make better helmets.

They are better helmets.

Sanga was always safe when it comes to helmets:

Beaten by pace...Markramprakash

 

[SeamUp]

Story of Markram's limited overs career at this stage.

Shot before going out ooozed potential best in the world.
