Humidity could make the ball do all sorts of weird shit.
Hamilton can make you do all sorts of weird shit.
HCC have been going about marketing all wrong. Not 'where it's happening' but 'where weird shit is happening'

Appears like it'll be a test disrupted by weather.
While not as bleak as the Richard De Groen days, I hold a realistic no hope for a win here. No miracle performances this time, we're lacking too many of our best players to beat these South Africans.
Inspirational choice of player! Grubby de Groen played in a winning test against South Africa IN South Africa . . .

@Donsteppa True that. Hamilton have had some truly fucked up tourist catchphrases. To think, someone came up with 'more than you expect' and a whole bunch of people went YEAH. THAT'S IT!! I still haven't been able to bleach my mind of the tv ad of the most cringeworthy nature, you remember the one with some douchebags walking along the wing of a grounded plane. A woman sang the song. Something about Hamilton is moving. (Maybe it was moooo-ving and cleverer than I thought.)

How did the rest of that tour work out?

Do you need some tips on how to use Cricinfo?

The question was purely rhetorical.

A lot of bad PR for NZ Cricket - heaven forbid! Luckily Fleming was never selected again.

Howarth, Rutherford and Morrison all had their reputations destroyed on that tour

Another catch for Latham. Philander gone. SA 7 down, but De kock making batting look easy. Need to get him out asap.
Its like having to deal with Adam Gilchrist all over again..
Gilchrist was never that big a Kock either

@Mokey was pretty outstanding anticipation to take this wasnt it.

are there laws about moving position before the ball is delivered?
update: I googled it - seems it is now permitted

Is everyone too scared to talk about the cricket for fear of applying the kiss of death?
SA bowled out for 314.
BCs 67/0 in reply.Yes you read that right, 67 runs without loss.
Great to see Latham tough it out after his lean run lately. He was actually given out to a shocker early on, which was overturned on review.Hopefully the rain stays away.
