Go proteas.

Great session from SA, given themselves a chance now to win. Need a tail wag here, hope JB gets a bit of support and can take momentum back from them.

 

[ImpatientLime]

pitch is not easy but england have made it look a hell of a lot worse than it really is.

 

[StephenZA]

Man I hate how much we suck on first day of the start of a Test series... every flipping time. Pitch is not a 7/62 off 25 overs. But 279 is good enough.

 

[Bijed]

Well, that session didn't go quite as well as I'd hoped it might

 

[Spikey]

I heard Chris Read was retiring but instead he's making a pair at Lord's wtf

 

[StephenZA]

Oh and didn`t see any comment on this but Rabada pursing and putting a finger to his lips after Stokes wicket was a brilliant middle finger to the ICC....

 

[Bijed]

If Dawson gets selected for the next couple of matches he's in with a good shout of breaking Agarkar's/Asif's/Holland's duck record

 

[Shri]

LoLiam Dawson

 

[Bijed]

He's doing a good job at getting himself into the Lexicon tbh

 

[Black_Warrior]

Good stuff this from the Proteas but still feel England are well ahead in the game. If SA are to pull this off, the runs added by De Kock and Philander in the 1st innings deserves so much credit. At one point SA were staring at a 200 run lead and to bring it under 100 gave them the chance to get back in the game.

Samuels, Kohli, Shakib and now Rabada - the list continues

The wording of the law is so wide that he may have broken it again

article 2.1.7 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Player and Player Support Personnel, which relates to "using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batsman upon his/her dismissal during an International Match"

Comes across as a bit childish and petulant to me.

It really would be off the charts awesome if QdK scored a quick fire 50 to win them the game #exciting

At least he doesn't punch lockers at his age

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well that was a disaster. Hope we have enough already.

Deffinite wanker. Very happy with the ban wish it was longer

 

[kykweer.proteas]

I think we still would have prefered that england bat till at least tea time.
