*Official* Australia vs South Africa -2022/3

[Spark]

Nortje aside, this has been every bit as unthreatening as the WI were earlier this summer, and SA don't have anywhere near the excuses (or injuries) that WI had.

 

[GotSpin]

This is some sad spin bowling

 

[Gob]

What was this talk of smith going back to the old technique? He looks like he has all summer to me. Was he more fidgety this morning or something?

Think it was specifically formed to face Jansen

devon thomas would’ve had smith nicking off the way that he started

 

[Burgey]

He was going a mile across against Jansen and really opening his stance up. At one point you could see all three behind him.

edit: ignore the very old draft if you saw that

That happened in Melbourne too didn’t it? Might be the left arm around angle causes a glitch in the Smith program.

Yeah it's something he's done for a long time. Did it a lot against Boult, and also against Anderson (not left arm I know) when he bowled around the wicket trying to hoop massive inswingers into him.

Khawaja's last 3 innings at the SCG:

137
101* not out
100* not out

 

[Spark]

Give the man a stand named after him

 

[Burgey]

Ussie you little ripper

 

[Shady Slim]

LFG UZZIE

 

[Gob]

Only if Travis hadn't had Covid

 

[Coronis]

Quality. btw Bradman sucked at the SCG, what a loser.

 

[Burgey]

and also against Anderson

We’re all against Anderson tbf

 

[mr_mister]

That second run was very risky

 

[Daemon]

I miss the good old days of Marcus Harris

 

[Jarquis]

Remember when Marcus Harris was getting picked ahead of this bloke...

Sydney folks, do ticket prices generally drop or free admittance occur on Day 4 or 5?

On another note, Harmer should try and Vinoo Mankad these guys

 

[Shady Slim]

maharaj is an excellent bowler and there’s no shame as a touring offie in getting reamed here but he has been really poor

not helped by his captain but he has not been bowling great

Would be the only chance of SA taking a wicket anytime soon tbh.

 

[Gnske]

Elgar is exactly the type of captain who wouldn't withdraw a Vinoo Mankad appeal
