We need to bat all day 4, and to lunch on day 5 to save this test

Weather will be fine from now on

Smith and Khawaja the key, they need to bat out the first couple of session tomorrow. Hopefully they both get big hundreds. I think we can get South Africa in the adelaide test. So important we draw this test

They'll both be out in the first session if recent history suggests anything.......

Couple of centuries to hazelwood and lyon and we are right back in this

Note - i started typing this with starc instead of lyon but had to make necessary adjustments ... but i have full faith in lyon

Series loss already.
We couldn't even last till lunch - spineless pricks.
And the Saffa's have done it without Morkel, de Villiers and mostly Steyne.

Well the aussies are welcome to come down to Rockville park this afternoon where I'll be coaching my under 14s side. The kids could give them some advice on how you change your mindset against the moving ball

Can't wait for next test when Saffas 2nd XI declare their first innings without facing a ball to give us a fighting chance

In fairness Philander Semi Rabada and Abbot are better bowlers than Morkel IMO. Philander is their gun bowler these days, Steyn is getting towards being passed it thanks to his injuries

Agree about the bowlers but how much worse would it have been if AB was playing

Who knows? He's obviously a fantastic batsman but I think Faf is the better captain, plus Amla would have been opening or Duminy might have missed out on a game. So it may have worked out entirely differently....they might have scored 700....or AB might not have bowled in Hobart and they might have been rolled early.
