a genuine swing bowler. that seam is like a rudder. few fast bowlers of various speeds get it that right, much less swing as he does.

And in all conditions as well. Not just in England. If there's swing on offer he'll find it and exploit it. The guy I would point to as an example for younger players to imitate ito his skillset. Enjoyable to watch.

We ended up winning by 120 runs. Very funny matches so far this series. Both bowling units doing all right but neither batting unit clicking in any way. I think Steyn's 60 is the highest score for the series so far. Let's hope for a better performance in the 3rd and final ODI.

Meanwhile 

Pakistan vs Australia in Dubai

 

60 Runs for which Australia lost all their ten wickets after the openers had put on 142. The collapse is the third-worst for any side after a century opening stand.

We really need this to be well supported, forget all the behind the scenes drama, they need sponsors in the game. they've lost both RAM and Sunfoil as sponsors of the domestic game this season.

 

 

Wanderers, Kingsmead, Newlands, SuperSport Park, St. George's Park and Boland Park..

 

essentially bloem and slummies got left behind by paarl, but that's what happens when you have empty stadiums.

Starts in just over a month. Not a lot of time for player draft, contracts, team prep, kit , etc etc. Going to be some busy people in the next few weeks.

Looking forward to it

ooh dear

Australia 91 / 7

 

I wonder if they can dig themselves out of this hole. The first Test was pretty exciting.

They were very fortunate in the 1st test and may have used up all their good luck.

Former selection chairman Rod Marsh has laid the blame for the Newlands ball-tampering scandal squarely at the feet of Cricket Australia, citing a "win at all costs" culture that he says was repeated at "every meeting" of which he was a part.

With CA's chairman David Peever set to be re-elected as chairman for a further three years at the Board's AGM in Melbourne on Thursday and the new chief executive Kevin Roberts due to start his role the following day, Australian cricket is still awaiting the release of two separate reviews into CA's culture as an organisation, helmed by the corporate ethics expert Simon Longstaff, and another of the men's team led by the former Test batsman Rick McCosker.
