3rd Test: Australia v South Africa at Perth Nov 30-Dec 4, 2012

[Red&BlackBear]

I didn't think anyone saw this capitulation coming after we rolled them in their first innings.

 

[Xfactor1979]

Ow! This hurts! Stop pummelling us!!!!

 

[Red&BlackBear]

Johnson hasn't been too bad this match I must say... I can see the selectors going for Hilfenhaus/Siddle/Johnson again against Sri Lanka. We'll probably take these 3 plus Pattinson, Cummins and Starc to England...

 

[hineyrulz]

Joy!! That will get him to England!

 

[Leagueaddict]

That's the way, body line the lot of 'em!

 

[Red&BlackBear]

Johnson has destroyed this bloke.. Great stuff

 

[BunniesMan]

Johnson has ruined this kids career.

 

[Xfactor1979]

See ya later Terry Wrist!

Now, some pressure on the newcomer

 

[Canard]

Hell of an athlete old Notch.

Don't know if he is a cricketer though.

This spell shows why he is so frustrating, this is world class stuff but three over's later he will be bowling pies.

 

[hineyrulz]

3 for Shitchell we'll never get rid off the merkin.

The question remains: Other than Hussey, is there anyone else capable of batting it out like Faf . We all its not the Australian way to bat it out for a draw though

 

[Red&BlackBear]

Johnson's got body line on the brain. About time he fired up with a spell like this. Could've used it at the start of it however.

We won't even get close to taking this to a 5th day

Honestly, he only looked threatening against Elgar. That is not saying a lot. My grandmother could look good against Elgar. It was a good over though, but he needs to follow it up.

"Are they batting Australia out of the game?"

Really Slater?

If the lead is 600 when we bat and we have to full days to bat it won't be draw. We'd have a better chance to win than draw. Getting just 3 runs an over would win.

If we try to block for 2 days we'll be lucky to survive the 1st day. The only way is moderation. Defend and leave when you can but hit the good ones.

If we get into the final day with not many out we have a chance.

They batted shit in their 1st dig and look what happened. Why can't we make the same turn around.

Because our batting line-up is pus. The only blokes is any sort of form are Warner, Huss & Clarkey. Add in Steyn, Morkel & Philander and we'll get rolled for 150 again
