"morne if you bowl enough bad balls you can hope they'll mistime one"

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Geez cannon fodder. Excellent 100..

This is not going to end well for us...

 

[Pothas]

Great. This is why he always plays and he plays at 6.

 

[Cabinet96]

Amazing.

 

[Gnske]

Bloody hell thats an innings

Whats the record for the biggest partnership in Tests between two gingers?

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Superb knock.

Let's take a moment to laugh at people who got up late

Yep, usually don't quite make it for the 8.30 start on the weekend, made sure I did today.

 

[fredfertang]

I unreservedly withdraw all the little snipes I've made about Stokes in the past - that was the hound's testicles

 

[Scaly piscine]

Chris Morris' this spell: 5.2-1-52-0

 

[Howe_zat]

Stokes:
42 off 68 with an old ball
58 off 37 with the new

 

[Cabinet96]

Wheels are proper off here for SA. Could collapse this afternoon/evening.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Currently 81/0 off 10.1 overs since the new ball

and they patted back the last 2 overs as maidens last night.

 

[superkingdave]

Love the lone nobhead shouting 'keep it there Morris' within earshot of the mics

 

[kykweer.proteas]

South africa is going to go out on an excellent batting pitch and have to end up batting two times in a row.

 

[NUFAN]

How'd Morris get a bowl before Rabada today? Amazing from Stokes, happy that this innings will stop the calls for him to be dropped. Surely he's like 5th or 6th pick each game.

Na, we won't enforce follow on unless we bowl you out in about 30 overs. Which even in the SA messed up state of mind won't happen.

It was pretty much just Pratters.
