After four overs, the type of spell Cummins would be used to, he has managed to hold up reasonable pace (quite a few in the early to mid 140's), and bowled a couple of dangerous balls. I'm a tad worried that the wide ball he has produced quite early in each over is one that normally would have flown to a catching fielder in a t20, and he has no other wicket taking ball unless it is a "you miss, I hit".

Prove me wrong Patty Cakes...

Still bowled too many crap balls today, if it wasnt for Cummins bowling tight at the other end they would be over 80

He then had a horrendous run of injuries, and after two solid years at a peak of performance, there is thoughts of him sliding down the order, perharps so we can heap more bowling on him to an early retirement.

Sorry Shane... :oops:

He still bowled a bit of s**t but looked more likely to get wickets today than any time recently. I ain't a fan by any means

Lunch, Day one...
RSA 2/107
Rudolph 30
Smith 11
Amla 14* looking to play a few big shots that aren't there, as he was bogged down early. Won't need to do much if Kallis keeps chugging along.
Kallis 43* off 33 balls. Was about a run a ball, then 12 off Lyon's over bumped it up a bit. He's not an aggressive batsman, so his strike rate speaks volumes about our bowling.
Johnson 1/40 Has gone for runs, but has looked dangerous.
Cummins 0/17 One or two balls looked threatening, but at least he's bowled tight. Ironic that as a guy who shot to fame in T20 cricket, he's had two four over spells.
Siddle 0/17 bowled well to Amla but that's about it, hasn't looked like taking a wicket.
Watson 1/13 Pulled a Wattostring.
Lyon 0/12 Does not need to bowl another over today.

Aside from our four bowlers we have:
Hughes- 3 overs in FC career for no wickets
Khawaja- 120 overs in FC career for one wicket, listed as a medium
Ponting- 5 Test match wickets, can bowl medium or spin as I recall
Clarke- 21 Test match wickets, was a useful part timer early in his career. Spinner.
Hussey- 4 Test match wickets at the average of 28... That will get blown out in this Test match.
