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

[WalkingWicket]

Urgh.

 

[Howe_zat]

Sucks. Don't need to check the odds to know England won't be favourites now

 

[OverratedSanity]

Huge start.

 

[LegionOfBrad]

He is crap at restarting in the morning after a hundred.

Can see why with that shot. Gotta get yourself in and get your feet moving before you try expansive drives on the up.

 

[Jono]

wow forgot this was starting at 7 and not 7:30. huge wicket

 

[fredfertang]

Root shouldn't have played that shot - he might have a better average at 4 than Sobers but he can't drive on the up as well as the great man

 

[Spark]

Whyyyyyyyyyy no 3rd slip?

 

[Jono]

and almost another just then! where the **** are your slips

 

[Gnske]

That slips cordon to Ali is confusing

 

[OverratedSanity]

Piss poor from SA

It's amazing how you only notice ****house things like no 3rd slip after something like that happens

Unless you're Spark. I swear he gets extra camera angles.

Can't wait for AB to become a commentator and start bagging captains for not having enough slips

Nah I'm pretty sure a lot of us were thinking there should be another slip in even before Moeen's escape.

Tbf we all know he is going to be running the "Academy of Being as Good as AB at Any Sport You Pick"

No I mean I would have thought the same had I noticed there were only two. Just doesn't come up on your radar sometimes.

 

[fredfertang]

Moeen doing nothing to inspire confidence

 

[Spark]
