you can still look utterly listless and flat and bowl 90mph.... Having said that, Clark faced Anderson after 5 sessions in the field, he probably wasn't bowling 90mph+ then

You're right, although methinks you'd have to be express to even consider being listless and flat whilst bowling 90 mph. Anderson patently isn't.

Shane Watson still appears medium paced even when he lets go of the ball at 140km/h+. It's bizzarre how easily batsmen play him considering the heat on the ball.

JH Kallis is killing the game.. 63 of 164 balls.. god damat.. if we want to attract people to cricket we need to get rid of batsman such as Kallis and Dravid.. they bore the hell out of audiance and people on the studium..

Kallis batting way too slowly here. A strike rate of 42 is unacceptable in this stage of the game. After bowling India out in 20 overs, South Africa should have a lead of over 500 by now. There's barely any time left in this match! What is he doing? Selfish average boosting IMO.

:unsure: Watching Kallis defend is better than watching most batsmen doing anything else, imo

Listening to cricket and studying for an 8'o clock test doesn't go very well together :(

Did you see India's innings? Kallis is doing exactly what he needs to.

It seems so. But then again, I am considered a bit weird by some. And I prefer watching good bowling to watching good batting.

it is understandable when u lose wickets in score of less than 100 and ur team is strugling.. but when u have a big lead of over 150 and u bat in strike rate of 40 or 39 is just dire..the score is 272 for four right now and what is the worse that can happen.. lose another six wickets for another 50 runs.. if there is possibility.. india will be under pressure still with being behind 250 runs which will put them under alot of pressure considering that they are missing little master.. if Kallis bat aggrassively indian bowlers will come under pressure and not to forget audiance and people who are watching cricket in the studium would be entertained also.. but all he is doing is boosting his average.. to become a legend or something..

u r saying RP singh, pathan and sreesanth and soo on are bowling good?well they might be but the question is how good Kallis is bating? as far as this sitution is concern.. he is doing the worst job possible..
