***Official*** South Africa in England

[Kweek]

Cook is 55 atm, and England are 0/98.

no **** mate

 

[Richard]

Hundred up - 2nd century partnership between these two.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

This pitch putting the ARG to shame atm.

Cook is 55 atm, and England are 0/98.

Wrong. They were 98/0

 

[Manee]

Got'em! Hmmm, interesting decision, didn't look out first time to me.

...NOT OUT! Ooo.

 

[Richard]

Strauss goooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnneeeeeeee. Not sure that pitched in line. No, outside leg.

Daryl Harper strikes again.

First thought was "that's not far away but probably outside leg". Then the camera cut to Harper and I was like "that's gonna be out isn't it?" and sure enough, a second later...

 

[Manee]

Wrong. They were 98/0

Both wrong, 114/1.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

"Where did it pitch? Where did it pitch? Where did it pitch? Strauss will be told in that dressing room exactly where it pitched."

About time some happened, at least. Come on, Vaughan.

 

[Richard]

Sheeysh, it's annoying to see someone play that assuredly then get sawn-off like that.

Sods law - the guy who's looked solid all day gets a rough call.
How far outside leg was it?

 

[Richard]

Not that far, but far enough. It was very obvious with the Skyline, and I'd think it was fairly obvious without.

 

[Kweek]

"Interestingly," begins Wendy Miller, "Strauss has now made exactly 700 runs in six Tests against South Africa."


that is quiet awesome

Wasn't borderline, but was close.

I really do prefer umpires being cautious about LBW decisions, and I'm rooting for South Africa in this game.

 

[steds]

Both wrong, 114/1.

I said "were". And they were at one point. I win.

 

[Richard]

Wonder what the odds are that Cook's everso slightly charmed life ends any minute?

 

[wpdavid]

Steyn back on for the new batsman, which has to be right

 

[Manee]

I said "were". And they were at one point. I win.

****!

A millimetre

Not the worst I've seen by a long way and was a pretty horrible shot - trying to hit a ball towards forward square when it was going to clatter into middle and off

 

[Manee]

A tad more movement and Steyn would have recreated that infamous outswinger from 2004.

 

[Jakester1288]

Wrong. They were 98/0

What's the difference?
