over 2000 runs for Smith against England now
we've lost so much play due to rain that it's hard to see a result, but South Africa can try to play for one if they just accelerate a but, then declare with a lead of 250 odd with 50 odd overs to play would be awesome

You dont play for as long as you do as Jacques at the highest level unless your in optimum shape

 

[Hallatia]

after all the stoppage time in the first session, I don't understand why lunch couldn't be shortened

 

[Hallatia]

both sides have wasted their reviews and this game has gotten quite interesting once again, 2 wickets for KP now. Personal best, and 3 for the match

 

[Hallatia]

loved the fact that SAfrica declared, did it with the right lead too. I liked England's getting KP to open. Speaking of KP, it's all getting very interesting in his regard
extraordinary KP press conference
I wasn't convinced that it was "extraordinary" at first, but it really is, the second half of it despite him practically biting his tongue off may see him not wanted for the third test. However, he made an extraordinary point in there about the distractions he caused in the lead up to this test series

 

[Hallatia]

I got distracted by the KP stuff, but back to the matter of the test, it was wonderful to see both sides fiercely contest it throughout the last day. KP deserved man of the match for his runs and wickets, England were stupid to leave out Swann, the lead up to the third test will probably be crazy, hope the third test itself is fantastic (particularly from a Protea perspective, want to see the test mace claimed through a victory)

for the record, this one was a draw
