Ahddammit missed Steyn's spell. Oh well, will catch the highlights in the evening. Saves me the trouble of trying to find something else to fap to.

Well done SA, Deffo in the driving seat now. We need to bat as long as possible now and try and salvage a draw from this match- which will be an uphill task..

as long as you mean since 2010 I am fine with that statement. Or the best bowler to have debuted after 2000.

or even the best fast bowler - I would pick him after McGrath but he's not far away.

All these Galle stats SL have are deceiving.. it's assuming we have Murali and Mahela/Sanga at their prime.. Amazing from Steyn though - can't remember the last time a fast bowler decided the game at Galle..

More and more, Steyn looks to have as good an all-round record, not just as per record books but actual performance as a front line bowler, as Marshall, McGrath and Hadlee do.

He has a very good chance of retiring as the best ever fast bowler in terms of overall record. Assuming he doesn't hang around too long and ruin it.

Mathews was good but wtf was Amla playing at by bowling Tahir and Elgar for that long?

You mena you want to feed the beast with his favorite food? That is pace and bounce to Mathews? Mathews was so succesful in England because there was no decent spinner to contain him. Mathews can manhandle any pacer, how world class they are, when in the mood.

Steyn can manhandle any Matthew when he is in the mood.
