1st Test: South Africa v Australia at Durban March 1-5, 2018 - AUSTRALIA WON

[TheParraboy]

Good all-round performance so far

Who'd have thought levers Marsh would so quickly become an integral part of the test team - he's found form, no mistake

hope he can kick on like the skipper

early in his career Steve Smith batted at no6 in 11 tests
averaged 25.00

wasnt a test player they all said

 

[Twizzle]

he batted lower than that didn't he ?

he was originally selected as a leggie

wasn't quiet up to the no 8 spot tho

only a couple of tests at 7 and 8, one test at 9

Was surprised he batted so much at 6 early on

 

[King hit]

Suprised anyone recalled Thompson, he played like 2 tests?

Jaapies will try hard to save this, and they have players capable, but you'll win - guess what they'l hope is they drain some energy from the quicks for the next test

I remember Mark Waugh talking about him once and he said that Thompson would've struggled at Sydney grade cricket. His spell in Adelaide is on YouTube and he sure bowled some snot.

That's how I know of him

Very few are my friend, very few are

 

[Mr Angry]

de Villiers is all class, but is only one man.

 

[TheParraboy]

Lot of talk about South African pride

lets see what they got

3 runs to start the day 1st ball

lead 405

 

[TheParraboy]

we are going the tonk

lead 416

 

[TheParraboy]

South Africa need 417 to win
416 to tie

 

[King hit]

South Africa are going to struggle to score 400 plus

 

[JJ]

South Africa are going to struggle to score 400 plus

Starc’s first ball was brilliant and his bowling has been pretty average since

Then that happens.
Poor shot selection as much as anything. Still 1 down 9 to go.
