They'll probably end up around 130 to 140.

BARNES OUT
'sup Precam.
Whoever he is he may have a point in that Clarke is in no way shape or form an opener. They'd be better off with Mussey at the top and Clarke down the order where he was actually good.
I don't see why Smith doesn't bring Steyn and Parnell back on and try to finish things off. These two may struggle to play out 9 overs from them.

Fantastic bowling by Parnell in particular, but the track looks really two-paced. Most just aren't coming on to the bat and others are jagging up.
If Fergie and friends can bat the 50, we're still a chance for sure. Though it's asking a lot from them.
Bracken 50 and then 5+ wickets imo.
EDIT: We really do have a fantastic tail for mine. Game on.

I don't really understand why Hopes doesn't open. He opens domestically, and Clarke has a better record down the order.
I don't think Clarke will be dropped yet, but he has had a very poor last 12 months. And he doesn't seem to be bowling at the moment which is one less plus for him.

Wasn't going to watch, have too much work, but hard to pass up an opportunity to see Johnson bat, won't get many opportunities like this in the format either.

Albertus should have taken it, he can't bowl that well so he needs to nail his fielding.
They'll need that at the very least to stop SA coming out all guns blazing and put Aus out of the game.from close games in Aus to boilovers in SAhopefully we can get to 150 and attempt to make a game of it.

No they didn't. Could have put on another 50 runs and SA would still be well on top.

Yeah, but I'm hoping for a thrashing.
