[Ashraful_Rox]

Rudolhp looks in good touch.

 

[chaiwala]

[adnan yasin]

big shout for LBW against rudolph by cummins

Not out

 

[kkmix]

3 first class matches and a call-up??? Australia that desperate?

 

[adnan yasin]

Gentle push towards offside by rudolph

[adnan yasin]

[Ashraful_Rox]

[Ambi]

U d r s)

 

[Poison]

3 first class matches and a call-up??? Australia that desperate?

His average is above 50 in those three first class matches as well. Desperate times indeed ...

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Unlucky Johnson.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Watson troubling Rudolph

 

[Random Aussie]

Get rid of DRS please. Joke of a thing.

Good first spell from Cummins though

 

[Random Aussie]

His average is above 50 in those three first class matches as well. Desperate times indeed ...

We have won two of our last twelve tests, so yeah.

We go to fifth if we lose this, probably overtaken by Pakistan.

 

[Amjid Javed]

DRS rules need to be reviewed! that was really poor stuff!

SA 43/1 at moment.

 

[chaiwala]

Rudolph

 

[adnan yasin]

Watson took his first wicket
Rudolph

after scoring 30

 

[Random Aussie]

Watto strikes! Averages 27 with the ball, how many bowlers are ahead of him now? Steyn of course and who?

 

[Random Aussie]

Go back to England you clown

 

[Ambi]

Watson

 

[AZ]

damnit to hell! why Rudolph?

 

[chaiwala]

Kallis starts off with a beauty

 

[Random Aussie]

Kallis averages 57 holy cow.

Underrated when we talk all time greats.

 

[adnan yasin]

Kallis averages 57 holy cow.

Underrated when we talk all time greats.

exactly

one of the best test batsman

 

[Jo_Don]

Kallis and Lara now have the same amount of test runs

 

[chaiwala]

Watto strikes! Averages 27 with the ball, how many bowlers are ahead of him now? Steyn of course and who?

Steven Finn...averages just below 27.

 

[Random Aussie]

If Amla was Pakistani there would be five threads calling for his head right now.

1(31)

 

[Random Aussie]

If Amla was Pakistani there would be five threads calling for his head right now.

1(31)

 

[Jo_Don]

Kallis overtakes Lara, moves to 4th behind Tendulkar, Dravid and Ponting.

 

[Random Aussie]

Steven Finn...averages just below 27.

Is that it? Wow bowlers are poor these days

 

[chaiwala]

Kallis is class

 

[chaiwala]

quick outfield...

 

[PakPosheeda]

How did THAT go for a four?

 

[James]

I think Anderson 2008-present has an average of 27 and Swann's career average is a couple above that...but yes, good bowlers thin on the ground

 

[adnan yasin]

boundaries are flowing now

 

[adnan yasin]

70/2

RR 3.75 (thats awesome)

SA 1st innings

 

[saj786]

I think Anderson 2008-present has an average of 27 and Swann's career average is a couple above that...but yes, good bowlers thin on the ground

but the facts are his career average of over 30 is ordinary

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Why are they playing only two test matches?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Kallis looks in awesome touch at the moment! and very postive!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Why are they playing only two test matches?

Because S.A wanted to integrate the ODIs and T20s on this tour aswell.

 

[Poison]

Watson injured game over.

 

[Random Aussie]

Dont play the Zaheer Khan game Whippy, his average is his average.

So Steyn, Finn and Swan ahead of Watson and that is it? Wow

Watson injured. Sigh.

 

[James]

20.5 Johnson to Kallis, 1 run, this line is poor, on the pads yet again, Kallis stays back and clips behind square
20.4 Johnson to Kallis, 2 runs, short of a length delivery on the hips once again, Kallis stays back and plays through midwicket
20.3 Johnson to Kallis, 2 runs, short of a length on the pads, Kallis moves back and pushes the ball through midwicket, the fielder from deep square leg has to run a fair bit
20.2 Johnson to Kallis, no run, short of a length down leg side, Kallis moves across his crease to glance off the hips but can't connect

Once a donkey...

 

[Jo_Don]

Kallis is striking at 133.33. Where are all the Kallizzzzzzzzzzzz comments now?

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

is batting like a bawwwwws

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Johnson bowling way wideeeee

 

[James]

Kallis is striking at 133.33. Where are all the Kallizzzzzzzzzzzz comments now?

Being saved for the bloke at the other end

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Big edge saves Kallis

Billy Bowden

 

[Bhaijaan]

Briiliant delivery to Kallis from Johnson

 

[Jo_Don]

lol @ Bowden. Less hopping and better umpiring.

 

[Random Aussie]

Run rate very healthy, thanks mostly to MJ

 

[Poison]

Lol MJ. 8.1 overs 1-40

Shocking bowler, please drop him from our side.

 

[Jo_Don]

MJ dealing in boundaries, Cummins dealing in byes.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

what a class batsman

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Lyon on

 

[spoiled]

now thats perfect argument for the use of drs

inside edge and decision reversed..lbws are worst when its an inside edge

stuart broad got his hatrick in india series with the middle wicket lbw inside edged

no use of hot spot or any other technology..just a simple replay should be employed and 99% of the time you are able to tell

 

[adnan yasin]

100 up !!!!

100/2 RR 4.11 super rate

SA 1st innings

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

:4 by Kallis, first ball

misfiled by MJ

 

[adnan yasin]

 

[Random Aussie]

Watson has a hamstring injury

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

:6 BY KALLIS

Classiest batsman of our time

 

[Jo_Don]

Wow 4 and 6 from Kallis in this over. Looks like he's trying to get Lyon out of the attack.

 

[adnan yasin]

107/2

Lunch day 1

SA 1st innings

RR 4.28

 

[velu]

kallis playing T20

 

[James]

stuart broad got his hatrick in india series with the middle wicket lbw inside edged

Cos the Injuns didn't want the Dee Arr Ess

 

[Random Aussie]

Wow 4 and 6 from Kallis in this over. Looks like he's trying to get Lyon out of the attack.

It's a bit of a South African tradition to go after our spinner.

Kallis did this to Hauritz last tour and McGain's career ended after one epic beating from all the batters.

MJ. Cummins and Watson were tight. Siddle too except his last over which was a bit unlucky. And they have 100+ up before lunch.

And Watson has a hammy so our best bowler, our form batsman and our best player all out injured.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Excited to watch the legend back in action. Five more minutes. and

 

[Bhaijaan]

Johnson bowls too short, every time he pitches it up he creates problems.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

:4 by

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

50 for Kallis, well played Sir. :6

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Edged for 4

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

South Africa 123/3, Siddle strikes.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

South African captain comes to the crease, AB Devilliers

 

[kkmix]

Siddle is the ugliest cricketer ever ... Kallis played a very good knock, though got carried away by his landmarks one after another.

 

[Poison]

Strange innings from Kallis

 

[kungfu90]

Cummins first wicket in test Cricket. gets Amla. Congrats

 

[Amjid Javed]

South Africa 130/4

game back in balance now after S.A threatened to run away with it when kallis was in.
