Built like Tarzan plays like Jane.

Cowan tells the SA to F*** OFF Slapped 6

 

[Hutty1986]

Good on the Proteas for the guard of honour, really fantastic gesture. They're a side that's a lot harder to hate than India & the pommies

 

[Xfactor1979]

Not so sure about Ponting facing Morkel though, Morkel is the booger man right now with the ball

Watson and Warner can not both bat top 3, they are both one day batsman who are just as likely to get out on their 100th ball as they are on their 1st ball. Watson must have one of the worst conversion rates of turning 50s into 100s, surely he has to be shafted down the order.

For SL: Khawaja at 3, Clarke at 4, Huss at 5 and Watson at 6. I know Clarke has struggled at 4 in the past, but really we have no other options unless we drop Watson which will never happen.

 

[Patorick]

good gesture from the south africans for punter

 

[Red&BlackBear]

Starts the show with a 4...

 

[madunit]

The old Punter is at the pitch!

He's keen to put together an innings to make a DVD with sales to rival Steve Waugh's SCG DVD

 

[hineyrulz]

Duddles wastes another start, down to 6 you go or out you go!!

 

[TheParraboy]

How many runs do you guys think we'll lose by?

5-10 runs

 

[Coaster]

how many runs do you guys think we'll lose by?

290

 

[woodyk2]

Hope Ed gets one of them ''ugly'' tons.

 

[Danish]

Really moving stuff when the Saffers formed the guard of honour for Ponting. Similar to when the Poms did it for Langer for his final test.

Given the enormity of the situation I bit the bullet and paid the stupid fee in the vodafone app to watch this game on my phone. Hopefully Ponting gets a score and makes it an astute purchase :lol:

 

[hineyrulz]

Jaffa to Ponting there.

 

[Cletus]

Could that be the misfield that costs the Saffas the test?

 

[madunit]

Ponting showing some old school shots with authority and looking determined as f**k
