2nd Test: South Africa v Sri Lanka at Port Elizabeth Feb 21-25 2019 - SRI LANKA WON BY 8 WICKETS

[TheParraboy]

SA should square the test series here

Any chance SL do the impossible? Very unlikely on this deck where SA pacemen should shine

Durban was SLs best chance being more suited to spin, and they got it done (just)

Hopefully ends up being a close test match here

Starts 7pm AEDT (tomorrow) Thursday evening

 

[TheParraboy]

SA won the toss and are batting

 

[Iafeta]

Elgar leaves a four foot gap between bat and pad while swinging from the crease and looks genuinely bemused that he was castled.

Earth to Elgar. Horrible technique. That’s how.

 

[Bazal]

Amla gone first rock....he's out of form, but that was a beauty

 

[Iafeta]

Vishwa Fernando. Mark that name down. This lad is a star.

 

[Bazal]

And Bavuma runs himself out.

What do they see in this bloke?

 

[Iafeta]

Quota pick.

But his average for his long run in the side is poor. Genuine plodder. Temba Baplodda

 

[Iafeta]

Hopefully Seth Efreka have a great #8 to come in. Pivotal position.

 

[Bazal]

Quota pick.

But his average for his long run in the side is poor. Genuine plodder. Temba Baplodda

There's gotta be a better quota pick, even.

The dude is rubbish

 

[TheParraboy]

SA 3/23

 

[Iafeta]

If Sri Lanka continue their improvement, India will call for them to be banned from the World Cup - aka The Tournament of India and Friends

Gee Alma is finished, he’s just ruining a great record now.



SA making Fernando look like late 80’s Wasim Akram.

 

[hineyrulz]

Vishwa Fernando. Mark that name down. This lad is a star.

He’s getting better every time I see him, he showed promise in Canberra and his next two tests he’s been very impressive in favourable conditions.

 

[Bazal]

Lol, Pommie Mbangwa trying to correct Makhaya Ntini about bowling strategy...

Pommie was an absolute plodder, Ntini was only one of the best African bowlers of all time

 

[Mr Spock!]

Alma fails again.....

Time must be up for him.

 

[Bazal]

Lol Faf!

Fancy getting out to Dimuth Karunaratne

 

[Mr Spock!]

Lol faf...

 

[Iafeta]

Ahaha. Karunaratne yorks Fluff with sheer speed.

 

[Bazal]

This SA tail is longer than the Nile...

 

[TheParraboy]

Hopefully SL can post a similar score to SA, Maybe even a little lead?
could be a cracker of a test
