Agreed Hammers. Can't believe the Saffers decided to have a hit. That batting lineup is wafer thin. Elgar looks hopeless honestly, he nearly got out the same way as last time, once is bad luck, twice is technique deficiency. He gets tied up into a little ball and can't drive. Peterson is very flaky outside offstump and I think we will well and truly sort them out when they come here.
It appears to be a tick for Bazzball in this match because it makes sense to attack after bowling out the oppo for **** all. Pope and especially Bairstow the main practitioners but get one or two early tonight and it can still swing South Africa's way. Reckon the Saffers have been sucked in a bit about Old Trafford being the English Bunsen and dropping Jansen in retrospect seems like a strange move. If Bairstow tons up it's 1-1.
regards,
REB

His delivery to knock over Pope yesterday was a ripper and has continued to look threatening, Simon Harmer has been the opposite, he hasn't looked threatening at all.Senor Moto Gadili wrote:Nortje is good to watch

Anderson with 3/30 in SA's second innings takes him past 950 international wickets going past McGrath who had the most for a pace bowler taking 949.locky801 wrote:Poor batting performance by the S Africans
Tail certainly didnt hold up with them losing 6/28 to be bowled out for 179
Comprehensive win to England

Delayed start due to rain, Stokes wins the toss and sends SA in.
The highly rated Harry Brook comes in for Bairstow.
Four changes for SA.

I think day 2 has now been cancelled due to the Queen passing away?
