Pretty crazy test match. Would have liked Australia to do them with us playing SA next, but SA will be too strong I think.

Maybe - Philander looks good, and Steyn looks like an especially hyped up SS stormtrooper - but dont forget SA didnt even get 100 in their first innings.

IIRC its only happened once before, during WI's last tour over here when they embarrassed themselves.

the yarpies look the stronger team all round to me ,even if the lose this test, which i dont think they will

I was going to go to the game on Sunday. that's not gonna happen now. I hope we don't collapse tomorrow it would be typical!

That Dale Steyn is going to be remembered as one of the best of all time, terrific bowler.

That was an immense sporting day overall. 26 wickets in a day, a five wicket debut haul for philander. Adam got an albatross, daly walked off after hitting 6 in the water.

Looking forward to the game tomorrow though, hopefully the sun gets out and bakes the pitch a bit.

He's like a modern day Alan Donald, although his record is better, even in a period largely dominated by batsmen. The best fast bowler around right now though by some distance.

Good job there's no dodgy betting in cricket........

 

[gonetomorrow]

Cricket's finished.

The Aussies have been well and truly thumped. Smith and Amla have bossed them today.

 

[linglong]

While i've no doubt that at some point in the future the Aussies will return to some sort of strengh its hard to see how long it will be,years certainly maybe even decades when you look at the west indies still trundling along seemingly stepping water i think a lot fo humble pie is going to be eaten over the next few years by the aussies

Australia can come back as I don't think the international game is 'that' strong. South Africa have a very strong side, as do England. India have been fantastic but they are ageing. Outside of that the competition isn't really up to much. Pakistan are in disarray. Sri Lanka are weak in the bowling department. The WIndies are weak, as are New Zealand, whilst Zimbabwe and Bangladesh haven't progressed. So I don't think it will take 'that' much for Australia to get back up there, but they're in a poor way right now.
