Aus vs SAF Series

[PPLions]

The Australian bowlers would be getting some confidence out of this
Great spell by Siddle

[Jim05]

Onya bike General Aladeen!!!!

[Media Park]

3-102

[The Chump is here...]

I would have kept going with Lyon for another couple IMO.
He was getting belted but it seems as though it might have caused a lose stroke from Amla against the quickies (who are bowling well at the moment).
No surprise to see Kallis and de Villiers shut up shop and consolidate now.

I agree, bring on the spinner and lure them out of their shop.

Bring on Australia's most improved ever player, I have a good memory against the Springbok shaggers.

How long will they play until they decide a result is not possible? Will they play out the day or pull up stumps early?

Until there is no possibility of a result.

lee looks like a goobatron FFS!

that pitchside is crap

[whufc]

Lyon only bowled two overs, is there any captains in aus that want to give him a bowl!

Ffs Ritchie they told u why it's been moved!!! Dementia well and truly setting in

[whufc]

Ffs Just YouTube it, Boucher was not wearing a helmet it came after he was at the stumps and the batsmen was bowled

[stampy]

onya bike jarrrrrrk

[whufc]

Kallis gone very well bowled Lyon great to see

[therisingblues]

4/131 Saffies lead by 16.
With only 5 wickets in hand.
About 30 overs to be bowled.

[RoosterMarty]

"Good try Gaz" almost sounds like Lyon is getting mocked!

Now he gets another wicket..... maybe.

[whufc]

Rudolph gone now 6 for

Agree rooster seems to be a lack of confidence lyon

[mal]

I was thinking with Quiney bowling a few overs that they would call it off with 15 overs to go
But Clarke wants the last 15
So why was Quiney bowled for so long ?

[the joker]

Gazza bowling doosra's

[Grahaml]

We seem to get that breakthrough at seemingly the very last possible moment. Can't though get a bunch of wickets. If we get AB out really soon, game on. But from here I'd play out the day. South Africa are in a no benefit situation. However, if we get them 8 down or something, even bowling them out in the last over of the day, that will send them a nice message.
