*Official* South Africa in Pakistan, 2021

[SeamUp]

Well done KG. 8th South African to 200 Test wickets after Steyn, Pollock, Ntini, Donald, M.Morkel, Kallis and Philander.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Pretty crazy that Rabada already has 200 wickets.

 

[SeamUp]

Rabada is 25!

Supposedly the 4th youngest to 200 after Waqar, Kapil Dev and Harbhajan is pretty cool.

Yeah it still seems like he's establishing himself as an entire bowler to some degree but he has 200@22.

 

[StephenZA]

Rabada is just a different class to our other bowlers. I’m getting over Nortje quickly; pace is insufficient at this level he needs to be able to get the ball to move off the straight. Need to give Dupavillion his shot.

 

[Bolo.]

Should work in China

No trundler, you moron, I am not looking for a link to highlights, I want to watch the game live...

Was the first thing that went through my mind when the first ball I saw was a wicket

Good timing

 

[Starfighter]

Feels like it doesn't happen often but Pakistan has a pretty useful tail here.

 

[trundler]

Nice to see KG adapt well to these conditions

Nortje reversed the ball nicely yesterday but that won't happen all that often

When was the last time the number 11 in a test comes to the crease with a test century, not including injured batsman.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Rabada take a bow

 

[trundler]

Haha what an absolutely classy drive

Especially for Pakistan, in recent times. Their tail has been an utter disgrace for a while.

Broad vs SL lol

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Nortje has been wayward

If things go pear-shaped here do you think we will thrown in a few test debuts next test ?

Time is ripe for a change in the batting. Even if it was to start with.

Forgot about him.LOL

SSA's really the 11 but came out as nightwatchman.

 

[vcs]

Pakistan has a really solid lower order in this match.

You know my thoughts on that. We should but no I don’t think we will. Nothing sensibly dramatic.
