***Official*** England in South Africa 2015/16

[Jono]

well hello then

 

[OverratedSanity]

That was a waste

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Gosh i hope the swing lasts. Just need to get our lines right.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

4 days of no movement then it swings. Silly bloody game.

 

[OverratedSanity]

If they had Steyn here...

 

[OverratedSanity]

Oh boy

 

[Jono]

Yes Yes YESSSSSSSSSSSS

This feels a little like Saffers vs India second test 2013/14

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Geez thata a monster catch.

 

[vcs]

They'd need at least 3-4 more wickets in the next 15 overs to set the cat amongst the pigeons.

EDIT : There's one!

 

[OverratedSanity]

Can catch.

It all depends on the runs Eng get. Saffers would back themselves to get a lot in the last session. I think they can take 2 sessions to get these 10 wickets.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Wow that was a stunner, not sure which was better. He can't bowl but he can field and bat.

They wouldn't want to be chasing more than 150ish, if they want to bat fearlessly.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

By the small chance we get to chase a score. De kock will probably open the batting.

 

[Shady Slim]

perhaps they could do what england did against pakistan and elevate for example de kock and amla to open with faf at three and abdv at four, but that then could backfire if you're left with early wickets and van zyl and morkel have to save the game

Goda: "I give up. I really do. Every time I talk myself out of instinct to expect the absolute worst from the team I get rewarded with ridiculous collapses.. There is something to be said for good old English pessimism.." It works every time, Goda. All out for 51, just you watch

England fans have got to be the most pessimistic bunch around...

 

[indiaholic]

There will be no second innings for SA. Root has got this.

 

[vcs]

Saying that, get Root cheaply and SA are well in with a chance here.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Might replace morkel with morris here. Morkel is all over the place.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

I take that back. Much better from Morkel.
