Personally was just pleased we got past 30 overs less than 5 down and with one of the big two still in. Still difficult batting but have a chance now to make something of the innings.
Three down at 30 overs... Next time: Shut mouth until 40 overs.

Can't see any of the tail hanging round, could be 150 AO easily.

No.. will never drop Philander, people always say that he will get smacked in flat/subcontinent conditions and he always does well. He is accurate and always find something from the seam/pitch.
Morkel is more suited to bowling in Australia than Philander. He was SA's best bowler across the series last time.
I will always pick Philander against Australia because he moves the ball and Australia has a major problem against lateral movement of any kind. Even good ol Bracewell can destroy them.

Dougeh was looking pretty good, but Rabada is better.

and **** ME how do you keep sending Southee out at 9? Wagner can bat ffs

Will he meme his way to 12 (4)?

tbf southee could either smack piedt for six sixes or get caught at long on

or he could bat reasonably and matu-ok but still

Played KW, hope he doesn't toss his wicket away with an unworthy slog. Really deserves a * for this innings.

Wow, can't remember the last time Tim played out an entire over without either taking a giant slog, or getting out meekly.

Haha, love KW feeding Southee the strike against Rabada. "**** off Tim, I've done enough hard work for today, it was your useless pies that got us into this ****** state in the first place, why don't you take the strike for a change?"
