Australia for a whitewash, it would be superb if they accomplish that. Also i'd like to see Tait play but its unlikely.

Nicky Boje certainly does rule :cool: The way he handled Warne's sledging (well it was more taunting) was so cool and comical.

Go Nicky :D Kaspa's good too, but less cool. :p

jeez hes an underated and good cricketer hes batting shows up most of his left handed middle order team mates prince and rudolph, warne and nicky have a mutual respect for each other warne came out all of praise for him before this series and criticises Greame Smith for ruining his career. if anyone saw the test he played in asutralia they would have seen smith set 6 3 legside fields for him and make him bowl ashley giles styles 2 feet outside leg. That was what prompted warnes words and as you can see so far in this series Smith has listened, 2 one day hundreds on the trot against new zealand batting at number 3, can anyoen tell me bojes average as a number 3 in odi's, i dunno why they stopped him coming at 3 he was so good in that position.
Whateva warney said would have been friendly banter between him and boje.

I'll join in with the chorus of "Warne is (possibly) the best bowler who ever lived" - but he has achieved greatness DESPITE being a jellybrain, not because of it.

He is an eccentric and eccentrics are genious' with extravagants and conroversy surrounding their lives,

just have a look at Dennis Rodman

Rodman - Oak Cliff projects, Dallas: "a place for violent death and drug culture", homeless at 19.

Warne - Ferntree Gully: "a place for picnics and exercise".

Warne isn't eccentric, he's a prat.

As a cricketer he's indefatigable and there's nobody I enjoy watching bowl more, though.

Good breakthrough for the Aussies. I thought Australia might struggle to take early wickets with Smith out. Clark has been a real find from this test series.

The first 9 overs of this match had some of the best pace bowling I`ve ever seen. Lee and Clark were both quick and moving the ball a bit with a lot of bounce. So many balls hit the pad and beat the bat.

And there is no McGrath. This is where Australia is so different from rest of the teams. A coplete attack not just one or at best two bowlers.

South africa looks alot more solid with boeta in the side.
Hopefully for outh africas sake he can score a big ton and get rid of AB who is not at test standard yet
