In big trouble now, need a steadying partnership here. Cooper looking a class above everyone else ATM, hopefully he can convert it into a reasonable score. Outfield isn't lightning, but looks relatively easy to score boundaries on. Mennie and Cutting could put a few out the park with the bat.

Great to see Cooper back and making runs. He hits the ball beautifully when on-song.

For those who know the pitch, what is the minimum we need in the first innings?

Probably a stupid question..

Is Cooper eligible to play for Australia?

He is.

If you qualify to represent an associate ICC member nation via birth or family heritage you are allowed to represent them provided you haven't represented your full member nation at senior level.

There are a few other criteria you must do to represent your associate nation for example help promote and develop cricket in your adopted country.

Coops satisfies this by playing club cricket in the Netherlands during our off season, and playing international matches as well.

He still counts as a local player for SA.

Wouldn't have a clue. Can't use club cricket as a guide as it has been prepared under the supervision of SACA & Les Burdett...

Just watching at the ground it looks like a really good pitch to bat on, balls aren't beating the bat, doesn't seem like a huge amount of bounce in the pitch. I'd say we need a lot more runs. If we make 350 we'll need to bowl well
