What an embarrassment for Test Cricket
A flat bowler unfriendly pitch
PA who struggle to make 200 when facing decent attacks on unflat decks end up saving this test

SA 380
PA 248

Keep this up and only the food vendors and gate staff will roll up and watch the games in this part of the planet

1 st time that this venue has been used for any cricket match longer than a 1 dayer so a bit tough being critical of the curator who b4 the match was worried that it might not last the 5 days.
Also the fact is that S.A. dropped 3 chances on the last day.
Also any team that is relying on Paul Harris to bowl them to victory have got to be dreaming.
