Shebeen Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Did you guys watch this years IPL? Was top class for the Super Kings in 20 oversbut then got dropped for the last few games after he called MS dhoni's wife a lekker tjerrie(i made the second bit up).
JGR Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Agree. Steyn is no fool with the bat as the Ausies have learned on the previous tour down under and on a good day Morkel can hang around for a while. Highly unlikely, but if the last 3 wickets can take us to 400 runs, then the Ausies are screwed me thinks.400 is really unlikely ... this morning before I left for work I would have taken 200. We should be grateful to reach 250 and anything above a real bonus.
El Dodgius Bastardo Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 yip, 250 would be great. Cummon Morne!
JGR Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 We will be batting in about 15 mins at this rate
Shebeen Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 i'm pretty confident that is the first time in test cricket that a #11 has opened with three consecutive fours. Go mornee morkel.
Blindspot Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 i'm pretty confident that is the first time in test cricket that a #11 has opened with three consecutive fours. Go mornee morkel. Are you trying to curse him as well? But he is doing a good job as #11 Mr Winter 1
Slave Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Rant on What a dismal performance with the bat. Seems that only Faf has made any show of resistance. Fatty fails again, Kallis out for 2, Amla RUN OUT??? And Div only made 4. Kinda makes one laugh doesn't it. (well it might if it was really funny). We definitely deserve the title of "Chokers" even though they only accept that in the one day format of the game. Far too often, we stage these massive middle order collapses and I wonder that we actually currently hold the position of top ranked test side.  I think I'll rather go ride my bike this weekend than pay any further attention to such mediocrity.  To make a go of this game, we needed someone to score big and it looks like Faf won't even get to 100 never mind the 200 that we needed.  Well done blomme boys. You sure didn't cover yourselves in glory this time around. Only way to rescue this would be for us to bowl Ausie out for less than 200. You cannot win a test match if you can't face 90 overs and bat out the first day without bleeding wickets.  Rant off
dracs Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) wow people have short memories... 225 is not what we would have wanted, but wait 'till Aus have batted before deciding how bad this innnings was. Edited November 30, 2012 by dracs
'Dale Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 wow people have short memories... 225 is not what we would have wanted, but wait 'till Aus have batted before deciding how bad this innnings was. True...Some bad shots from Vern and Alviro.Bad call from AB to run (Amla out). Go, Proteas!!
Mr Winter Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 "Faf du Plessis goes back on a Test average of 266, and the last four SA wickets have tripled the score from 75 to 225. There was some help for the bowlers early on, but it is still not a wicket where you get bowled out for 225 on day one of a Test."Â Hows that for a Test average
JGR Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Average scores at the WACA1st innings - 3832nd innings - 2733rd innings - 3294th innings - 286
