If I hear a variation on "Gee, the South Africans sure are defensive today..." again, I'm going to personally fly to Perth and punch the entire commentary team in the pancreas. They've said it several times an hour today, they say it every time the Saffies come here. WE GET IT.
Lack of overseas commentator IMO.Honestly, they'd have nothing to say if they didn't trot that out approximately 30 times a day. Most stale commentary team ever.
at least they respect viewers!!!!
Muahahahaha. Was originally going to write "Smith will be standing at mid-on laughing" IIRC.South Africa will be hoping so, because that's how he gets wickets. Harris took what was probably the most important wicket in the whole series against England when he had Pietersen out for 94 in the second innings at Edgebaston. How? Pietersen didn't rate him, treated him with no respect and got himself out trying to go down the pitch. Harris can be ticked along for a decent amount of runs without anyone having to take many risks. If Australia decide they're going to risk their wickets to score those runs unnecessarily quickly just to try to humiliate him, Smith will be delighted.
Fair call...
