Australian Tour of South Africa

[batmanbegins]

Pretty ridiculous he got off but it’s very good for the series hopefully Starc gets over his injury issue for the 3rd test so both teams are at full strength again.

[Jim05]

Meh he did bugger all. Makes for an exciting finish to the season

He did bugger all this time but had numerous priors.
Has a terrible record

If you are a South African supporter, he has our batsman hopping around with little or no idea how to play him.

will clean us up again in the final 2 tests is my prediction

What Jim said. His priors and bad record is what got him to this point.

if starc is ruled out the big question is chad or Jhye?

It will be Jhye, Chadd is there as back up for Hazlewood.

Chadd will always be the back up to the back up unfortunately

[Lightning McQueen]

Chadd will always be the back up to the back up unfortunately

Not necessarily, Richardson got the nod ahead of the Chadd because the selectors thought Starc or Cummins were more likely to break down than Hazlewood, they already had Bird as his back up as like for like, Richardson's raw pace seemed more apt as a replacement for the other two, I didn't like it initially but could see their point.

Whether we agree with it or not, Bird trumped the Chadd against the Redbacks when there was an opening, in the end the Bird ended up being a poor man's Hazlewood which proved pointless with only one genuine quick.

Australia bowling.

2/92

Didn't want anything to do with the short stuff prior to that and then he does that so that wicket was a real shock. Just threw his wicket away.

[The Dark Knight]

de Villiers looking real good, just has so much time and is a pleasure to watch. Played a couple of fantastic shots off deliveries you wouldn't consider as bad balls.

Is all class, called it after the alleged incident by Lyon with him that he would ton up last test and rightly so did, he will be in front of Elgar run wise by tea

[locky801]

S/Africa in cruise mode right now 2/171 might be chasing alot here

[locky801]

Good spell from Cummins gets two quick wickets 4/234

and another 5/239

S/Africa 8/266 at stumps

Elgar 121*
Cummins 4 wickets
