Amla's been out of the country, so won't have bought a lottery ticket.

Could be part of a syndication....?

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Pitch it up please.

 

[mr_mister]

Batting average back above his bowling average

for those who care

probably just me

haha it is interesting though. the sign of an excellent all rounder

 

[91Jmay]

Broad getting swing is an interesting sign. Not sure he knows how to use it that well. Great start this though. Working them over

 

[Gnske]

Dean Elgar is going to be one of my favourite cult players from this era

 

[91Jmay]

Nervy start, needs to find a length.

 

[Cabinet96]

What a delivery.

He gets swing a lot in conditions like these.

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Not really making them play enough (absolute Jaffa last over aside)

 

[Spark]

Well I didn't think he hit that

edit: huh, fair enough. not sure what elgar is thinking playing at those in the last over before tea.

 

[StephenZA]

Well I didn't think he hit that

There seemed to be a simultaneous brush of the pad from the bottom of his bat, but impossible to overturn, because you can`t say he did not nick it as well.

 

[91Jmay]

For all the nuggety, make the bowler come to him talk Elgar has got out to some horrid shots so far this series.

He has this habit of suddenly pushing at balls he should leave... its why he avg`s just under 40 and not 45+.

 

[Howe_zat]

I thought it would be tea about 20 minutes ago and stopped watching

 

[MW1304]

Good stuff from Root letting TRJ have a couple before tea.

 

[91Jmay]

Pretty close but go not out. TRJ found the area to bowl though

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Good stuff from TRJ. Moving the ball both ways.

Terrible shot by Kuhn.

 

[Spark]

What on earth kind of shot was that, honestly.

A bit of Caribbean Calypso one leg up

 

[StephenZA]

For a man that was scoring so many runs Kuhn just has not looked good enough at this level. I think that SA must just put Markram in next test and stick with him for the next few series at least. No more of these journey men.
