RSA vs NZ, 1st Test, Durban

[hydro11]

<p>Amla gone and we are well on top.</p>

[reprobate]

<p>awesome from boult.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>also good (for us) to see that duminy still has a weakness against the short stuff.</p>

[SynicBast]

<p>Fuck me is there nothing Kane can't do? Bats, bowls and fields, that catch!</p>

[mimic]

<p>SA currently 228/8.. </p>
<p>Great bowling effort.. But im guessing our batsmen will be lucky to get past 100...</p>

[gollum]

<p>Both sides look like 200 all out without their 2 decent batsmen doing something good. In which case they might be 300 all out. Makes for a great series.</p>

[Siam]

We chipped away nicely. The saffa batsmen looked good in parts but we stuck to our guns.<br><br>
Dougie and Wags add some nice intangible guts effort and attitude to the mix<br><br>
Can that fuckwit ANZ bank stump up some more of our fees to get Bondy on a consultant role. He can learn Wagner an inswinger coming back to a right hander camped back in his crease and remind Timmee what the new ball is for.<br><br>
Wagner with an inswinging yorker and Southee not giving 4 balls and we're well set.<br><br>
Well bowled Boulty today too!<br><br><br>
ps hard job finding highlights on the interweb...

[reprobate]

<p>i just watched that catch on youtube. that was fucking sharp.</p>

[Mokey]

<p>Watched the highlights between Olympic pole vaulting today. Fantastic catch by Kane in the gully, one handed, flying sideways...gees he is a sharp fielder. Just the man you want there, how often does he pluck one out of nothing.</p>

[JK]

Delayed start due to rain.<br><br>
Picked up wicket of Steyn in 2Nd over before taking new ball. <br><br>
Won't be easy batting conditions today with the added moisture in the air. Both boult and Southee getting good swing

[mimic]

Southee drops one .. these extra runs could prove costly .. <br>
Saffas creep up to 250 now

[dingo]

<p>Looking at the swing Boult is getting, NZ will probably be a bit nervous thinking about what Philander and Steyn will do with it against out somewhat fragile batting line-up.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Maybe SA should declare.</p>

[canefan]

Might not matter if Dale Steyn rips us a new one again.....

[dingo]

<p>Thats it, all over, SA all out for 263.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now we get to bat in overcast swinging conditions.  </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Will watch Guptil and Latham's cheap dismissal with calmness because its inevitable.  Will then watch Kane and Rosco like this.</p>
<p> </p>

[hydro11]

<p>Good early shout on Guppy.</p>

[Hooroo]

Captain Obvious would like all to know that Dale Steyn is one hell of a bowler.

[hydro11]

<p>Just need to see out a few overs here. I don't want Williamson in for at least a few overs.</p>

[SynicBast]

<p>I hope we can get through the first 12-14 overs - RSA change bowlers may not have the conmtrol of Steyn/Philanderer</p>

[hydro11]

<p>Latham already two big edges. Need to stick in there.</p>

[SynicBast]

<p>Fuck, this is impossible. Test against one of the best pace attacks going around and the ABs are playing wallabies at the same time - much channel flicking ensuing</p>

[Mokey]

<p>Black Caps 15-2 at early lunch due to rain.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Shit.</p>
