2nd Test: South Africa v Australia at Port Elizabeth March 9-13, 2018

[Eelectrica]

Khawaja passes the Quiney and into double figures. Should raise the bat.

Banplod gooorn, if Smith goes cheaply hello innings loss.

 

[Eelectrica]

Unfortunate for Bancroft. Just when we were picking up momentum.

We need Smithy to show every bit of grit and determination that was there in Brisbane. The rest need to follow the example.

 

[Hutty1986]

Lol a test match on the line and he gets out like that, well done Derpcroft. Smith with it all to do with Khawaja to be dismissed shortly

 

[Timbo]

You can hear JL dialling his journo mates in the west to remind them all of what a quality player Bancroft is right now.

 

[Eelectrica]

Well that sucks. 3/ -62 as Smith goes.
Khawaja and SMarsh to be the heroes of the day.

 

[Hutty1986]

One 50 in four knocks from Smith. Carrying these duds and all this bullshit from Warner is getting to him. Probably lose by an innings now

 

[aussies1st]

Gets his bunny again

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Rabada is a plonk of the highest order but it will suck when he gets suspended. So much spice would be removed from the series.

 

[Hutty1986]

another Smarshmallow masterclass

 

[AlwaysGreen]

This is not so good

 

[Eelectrica]

At this stage I'll settle for not being by an innings. If MMarsh and Khawaja could manage it, that'd be awesome.

Shaun Marsh has ruined my life so many times

 

[Matt23]

Khawaja and Mitch Marsh appeared to have steadied the ship, ever so slightly and can we get Renshaw on the next plane over please, Warner’s lost the plot and Bancroft, he’s a dud.

 

[Hutty1986]

The great man gets out seven minutes before stumps. I bet it was super graceful and elegant, though, and classy.
Good knock actually, just a pity everyone else shat the bed

 

[AlwaysGreen]

We've got 3 fine fast bowlers but Rabada is showing why he would walk into any world XI.

 

[blaza88z]

Looks like it'll be 1-1, it's a shame Khawaja couldn't bat like that in the first innings

 

[JJ]

We've got 3 fine fast bowlers but Rabada is showing why he would walk into any world XI.

He's a huge talent.

But AB is out of this world - I know Smith's record is freakish, and Kohli can be amazing - but there's nobody I'd rather watch bat than de Villiers - at times it's like he's playing on a different wicket to everyone else

 

[hineyrulz]

Great call to try and Humilate AB last game.

No bowler has got him out all series or looked likely.

Had a big weekend and haven’t seen much cricket but our batting not doing the business again when Smith fails. How surprising.

The useless Merkin would look great in a Parra jersey.
