Australia v South Africa
-
From here the game plan for South Africa would be to bat positively and be around 300 at stumps. Then one and a half big sessions tomorrow morning to put on 200-250 and a sporting declaration with 1.5 sessions left on day 5. I'm not sure if the pitch will break up enough for SA bowlers to force victory.

That wicket hurts. It's difficult to see SA being in a position to set a challenging total from here.
solid comedy
i was onboard with your plan, though i assumed they also needed to channel the spirits of AB deVilliers and Herchelle Gibbes
And then Dale Steyn, Shaun Pollock and Alan Donald to take the wickets.
Doable, but unlikely

Because I have to coach with him for 10 days of the year at the High performance centre at Albion.
And he gets pissed afterwards and makes a dick of himself.
Most people involved with Cricket here in QLD will say the same thing he is right up there with Michael Clarke as a major knob. -

Oh well, next time you see him tell him I was in awe of his timing and power when I saw him batting up close in the nets at the Basin in 07. Amazing stuff.
Tell him that’s from MN5, if he reads the fern he’ll know who I am.

Ok I will tell him that don't think he reads the Fern if he does he will not be happy with me for calling him a knob, but I am safe,due to see him in January for a Australian u/19 High performance batting and fielding clinic.
I could tell you many stories about M Clarke.

Appalling runout there. That's Inzamam level stuff.
Bavuma in runout shock.... not.
Guy is fucking awful. Turned blind and then left his partner stranded.
The earlier runout was also terrible stuff.
They look like a lazy, disinterested, leaderless bunch. I expected more, but will take thrashing them as compensation.

He would have made it easily if he just ran.

When did SA become such bunnies?
7 innings without 200, and soon to be 8 innings.

Yet, last time they got over 200, they pantsed the poms

well the bowlers are filling their boots and padding their averages
the batsmen haven't needed to.

Given Bavuma has managed to notch up more than 50 tests with a single ton and an average in the low 30s, they've been shit for a while now. NZ dropping a test to them at home was almost as embarrassing as dropping a test to the Bangles.
I wonder why their team is so poor now though. You'd think a country their size would have some talent coming through, even if a bunch of their players play for other nations.
