Yeah its like that with everything in SA.. From the cars to the power sockets, its the same as was in the UK a few decades ago..

Unfortunately James Blunt is catching on though, we don't need the 21st century!

No Internet Audio stream for the cricket unfortunatly..

Oh and PY, if you want more radio beats then try www.jacaranda.co.za

Technically they still have to name them, but the captains have agreed not to use them at all.

Smith could do a double bluff here and use Prince if the chase is going badly! :ph34r:

Ah, poor Australians, the paragons of virtue on a cricket field.

As the great Corporal Jones frequently said "They don't like it up 'em"

Hmm Clarke out at least 8 overs earlier than Australia would've liked. All the same, great partnership for Australia there-- even 100, too.

Looks like the Saffies have taken a leaf out of the Englishmen's books then, hitting the batsmen while trying to throw down their stumps.

No!!! Hussey!!

Ah well. All the same, what a player he's been for Australia. Hopefully Watson, Lee and Hogg can get Australia to somewhere around 240-270.

Hey wheres Neil Pickup, pack your bags and come and bowl some spin for South Africa...

I agree. Seriously, if the best you have is Peterson, I wouldnt bother playing a spinner. You should never just pick "the spinner" for the sake of picking him if there are better bowlers available. Spinners offer variation, but that's only worth so much, and the quality difference between Peterson and someone like Van Der Wath is very apparent.

:laugh:

The fact that you've got a spinner with 65 FC games and 96 List A games who still averages over 30 in both is just sad. South Africa really should just give up on spin and just use pacemen, Smith's spin is normally good enough.

I'm loving the fact Smith bought himself on first! RP really is the worst international spinner going.. He captains my home side the Warriors, he's a bit like Khaled Mahmud without the talent..

Maybe they'll follow it up by winning the Test Series then.
