Cook drops Amla off Stokes, difficult chance but should be putting in a better effort than that. 140/2. 

 

  

There goes my last chance of under 200.

There goes my last chance of under 200.

 

Still possible J, albeit a long shot now. SA's tail is long. Looks a lot easier to bat on now, although still a bit in it for the bowlers. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Broad gets De Kock out first ball after Tea, 179/3. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

194/4, Broad gets Amla out for  78, important wicket. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

220/5 now, Stokes gets du Plessis, caught down the leg side after the ball nicks the glove. Great umpiring decision concidering we had no reviews left, du Plessis spunked a review for SA though. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

235/6 as Bavuma falls to Stokes. 

[Joe Strummer]

Decent day's cricket. If England skittle them out for under 350 and then bat for 2.5 days they'll have a chance.

 

Today however is all about the Roses T20.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

SA edged that today, only just mind. Weird pitch, Broad saying that the minute the sun comes out it is easier to bat on but the minute a cloud blocks the sun it id bowler friendly. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Wicket already. SA 309/7, Anderson gets Philander out. 

 

Off to a party at 2, gonna miss the second two sessions today, fuck socks. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

317/8. Anderson strikes again, good slip catch by Root. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

SA 335 all out, Anderson single handedly wraps up the last 4 wickets in just over 30 minutes this morning to get yet another 5 for. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Eng 3/1, Cook out cheaply to a slight inside edge which hits the pad before going through to the keeper, lucky saffa bastards. 

[Captain Turdseye]

Jennings gone. 3/2.

 

Skaro got the day wrong.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

3/2 and Jennings out for a duck, peach of a ball from Morkel. Well this is going well. 

[mgw100]

Jennings pretty blameless there. A corker.

[sir roger]

Eng 3/1, Cook out cheaply to a slight inside edge which hits the pad before going through to the keeper, lucky saffa bastards. 

 

Surprised he didn't review it, must have been a feather edge if he didn't feel it.

[lifetime fan]

Who could have predicted Ballance being shite?

[Manny]

This has been one almighty fuck up from England today. SA making us look bang average.

[Jairzinho]

What in the fuck is going on?

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Surprised he didn't review it, must have been a feather edge if he didn't feel it.

 

He couldn't review it mate, the Umpire had given it not out and the SA's reviewed the decision. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Amla nicks one which carries to the keeper, umpire doesn't give it out and Root doesn't review, pathetic. 

[Fowlers God]

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Two quick wickets, SA 154/3 which is a lead of 284. You get the feeling England will struggle to chase down anything over 300 on this wicket. 

[Jairzinho]

Our spinners are looking about as threatening as the Lib Dems.
