1st Test: South Africa v Pakistan at Johannesburg Feb 1-5, 2013

[BDR]

Secede is the word you're looking for.

I don't think Zero Dark Thirty really said anything too bad about Pakistan or Islam, although it did portray their intelligence agency as morons. Which really... they kinda were. Either morons or complicit. I didn't like the movie that much anyway.

The test match is pretty evenly poised though. I didn't get to watch the tail collapse but saw highlights this morning. Good stuff from Hafeez.

 

[Hallatia]

no, that's not the word. It might be a legal term, a judge in Boston legal tried to do it for his state or town

I'm apprehensive about the film because I don't like things that perpetuate hate. I would like to believe that I am discerning enough not to be drawn in. People are human beings and should always be seen as such before they are seen as anything else

 

[Hallatia]

thanks BDR. Just saw your post. Yes, secede

Probably the country I'd least like to visit, Pakistan.

I'm sure there is a New Zealand joke in there ;-)

Great place to send the mother in law, stolen from Beefy Botham.

I just want to point out the great man top scored for the Proteas with a well compiled 50 (9 glorious boundaries in that)

Should do some damage with the ball should Smith give him an over or two (take note Sunshine)

 

[Hallatia]

did you say 9 boundaries? Magic number that 9

 

[BDR]

And Pakistan 1 out for.... 9 :lol:

Jaffa from Steyn.

 

[Hallatia]

brilliant first over from Steyn. He should have a lot of fun today

 

[BDR]

Oh lawd, Dale Steyn.

 

[TheParraboy]

Steyn will get 9 wickets today I reckon

 

[Hallatia]

might even make Pakistan follow on, but Steyn is on some kind of fire here. Could easily see him getting a magic 9

 

[Hallatia]

South Africa's 253 is looking like a great score now but it's only early in the Pakistan innings

 

[TheParraboy]

the great man bowling

 

[TheParraboy]

Kallis to Azhar Ali, OUT, a brute of a delivery there from Kallis, just as it seemed that Azhar Ali and Misbah had done enough to weather the early storm, Kallis digs one in and that goes for Azhar's throat, he has no option but to fend at it, sends it through to the keeper and South Africa get their fourth, and Kallis showing again why he's pretty handy as a fourth seamer

 

[TheParraboy]

2 wickets for the great man, surely early contender for MOM ?

 

[Hallatia]

get Steyn back into the attack to challenge him for it. Steyn's spell this morning was amazing, would be him and Kallis the only current contenders

 

[Xfactor1979]

Bowler's pitch

 

[Hallatia]

and now Philander is into the wickets, but not quite in contention for man of the match. Maybe if he gets a hattrick
