South Africa in Australia

Re: South Africa in Australia

South Africa's fielding has been terrible so far, Ponting's been given two chances, he should have been run out for a duck and was now dropped by van Jaarsfeld, then a run-out attempt on Marsh was missed on the very same ball.

Then there's the three LBW appeals against Ponting which were all very, very close. Hawkeye said all three were hitting.

Morkel brothers bowling pies at the moment, Marsh and Ponting are having no trouble with them at all. Albie hasn't really fired at all since he's been here but hopefully he'll be able to show us what he is capable of soon.

1/76 from 15 overs, Ponting 40 from 42, Marsh 27 off 37. Morkels have combined for 0/52 from seven overs.
 
Re: South Africa in Australia

30 overs

Australia 2/144

Rule of thumb, double the score at 30 overs, should be looking at around 290 from here on, espescially with wickets in hand!
 
Re: South Africa in Australia

271 after 50.

Wil be interesting to see if SA canchase this down with McKenzie and Kallis in the side.
 
Re: South Africa in Australia

Powerplay should be taken in 2 over if no more wickets have fallen.

That way Hussey should have his eye in and obviously Marsh will.

You'd hope so;)
 
Re: South Africa in Australia

The South African's have been horrible in the field today.

You can't keep missing opportunities and expect to win.
 
Re: South Africa in Australia

Marsh gone for 79. It's good to see that he's found a bit of form because before this innings he was really struggling.

Need a big partnership between the two Victorians.
 
Re: South Africa in Australia

Who will bowl first

White, Dussey or Clarke?

They might need more than 10 between them with the way Hopes is bowling
 
Re: South Africa in Australia

Dave Hussey and Clarke should bowl 10 between them. I don't want to see White anywhere near the ball.

EDIT: It's Dave Hussey.

White took 4/10 in his last bowling effort :D
 
Re: South Africa in Australia

How funny is tony greig! lists the remaining batsman and says that they will need to make most of the runs... thanks genius!

Teaches me for being to lazy to mute the TV and listen to ABC.....
