Yeah haha it's interesting. Wonder why. Probably has something to do with the similarity of conditions/pitches (SA somewhat more bowler-friendly though).

I would say Mitchell Johnson is the main reason, that and South Africa being excellent away.

The away thing is interesting, a lot of the talk is about how poor teams are away from home but I think it is just as much the case that a lot of sides are just really good at home, or at least have individual players that are brilliant at home.

Watling is going to be pretty disappointed getting out prodding at that when he'd been paying nicely. He obv thought that was closer to him than it was.

Would be highly surprised if Craig or bracewell can hang around.

Nah Watling had been looking pretty vulnerable against the reverse for several overs. Not at all surprised he went. Craig looks like he hasn't rectified his vulnerabilities against reverse either, so don't expect him to stick around for long.

Extra pace on this wicket makes a huge amount of difference.

Craig doesn't look like he will be out there long.

It is when you consider that the supporters of one team just want it to rain so that they have to stop playing

And its participants. I spent the last 5 or so seasons of cricket wishing it would rain most weeks.

143 runs to avoid the follow-on and give ourselves a chance of 0-0. I honestly can't see it when our #10 and 11 are scared of pace.
