Is there anyone else currently that gets the ball to move as much as Mayers? Shame it is all at 120kph but he made Mulder look silly.

What's happened to Kyle Verreynne? thought his batting was starting to come on well. Injured?
Dropped ;( Shukri prefers Klassen who so far has proven me correct a very good provincial t20 player for the leagues and than local one dayer and fc not international standard.

Hopefully this game doesn't follow the pattern of the last game, with WI's looseness in the first two sessions being the difference between the sides.

I wonder if Rabada will be pushing for a promotion up the order given that he scored more than 8-10 combined.

It probably will be...

But people do seem to forget that in SA 350+ scores are pretty good. The wicket always gives something to the bowlers throughout the day and the new balls are difficult to play, particularly in the later afternoon. Its just very exaggerated with some of the poor batting on show.

That's crap , bowled out in the first 18 minutes ..Where's the belief ? The fight ? So many players doing their talent a disservice , Rickleton throwing away his wicket. Mulder looks so scared whenever he comes out to bat , Klaasen just soaks up dot balls and then goes and plays a dumb stroke that gets him out ..Waste of a good platform

I think the stat I saw was that the average first innings score at the Wanderers is 314. So a disappointing collapse, but still a par score for the ground.

I understand why they've given Mulder the new ball, but don't agree with it. Need to give it to Coetzee now.
