babse Posted February 8, 2021 Share Looking positive however I hope we don't leave anything for the tail.QdKs could get it done before tea if he continues to think this is a T20... Vetplant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babse Posted February 8, 2021 Share And I was blowing Elgars worn for his grit of which he has shown very little of so far... on the contrary, Markram has shown bucket loads. Vetplant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vetplant Posted February 8, 2021 Share Three overs until the new ball, clocking in the runs nicely in the meantime, but then where we need to knuckle down and make it through that section to have a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted February 8, 2021 Share Man of the match candidates:Rizwaan - this game would be over if we caught him when he was on four, but he still had to score the runsHasan Ali, currently on 9 wickets. he could rip through the lower order Aiden markram...probably not done enoughTemba Bavuma - if he can see this through to the close he'll be on about 120*, with his first innings 44 n.oGeorge Linde - if he is required to bat and does well then, given the context of his injury he could sneak it.  test cricket is awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vetplant Posted February 8, 2021 Share Preservation of wickets is now all that matters.Can we emulate the Indians in their 4th innings chase at the Gabba earlier this year? Keep the over rolling by and then go for it once the overs start running out....
