Aus vs SA - 3rd Test @ SCG

[mulan]

Australia win by 8 wickets. Take the series 2-0. Three to be played in SA in a month or two.

This scoreline suggests an Aussie dominance, but it's far from that. I predicted the Aus would not have things their own way, despite SA's weaker bowling attack. And it's only because of some awfully poor missed chances in the field that SA didn't win the second test. (and a couple of dubious umpiring decisions?)

And a VERY sporting declaration in this third.... (and the weather and some "interesting" umpire decisions)

SA need some pacier wickets at home. Newlands, Centurion and the Wanderers will produce those...Hope Ntini is fit.

What SA need to do is work on there one dimensional bowling attack. They seems to be far too pacer relient. I mean, its not like they are the west Indies of old. People like Nel are good but his vein popping antics make him a better bowler than he really is, and pollocks over the hill too. Where on earth is there spinner?

Thank goodness that we have such a fantastic varied bowling attack. Lets see how the Indians cope against us

Saffies best spinner is Botha. Now he gets called.
