I wouldn't consider South Africa's batting lineup a good one. They only have one batsman (Dean Elger, #18) in the Top 30 of the ICC Test Batting Rankings. We have four of the Top 13. Temba Bavuma is ranked #32, with the next best being Rassie van der Dussen at #48. Their bowling is their strength.

The point is more that England’s line up last summer and the West Indies this summer are two of the worst batting line ups I’ve seen in test cricket from the top eight or so test nations.

Seriously the bowlers I mentioned would’ve seen better batting line ups in the Sheffield Shield.

Pakistan are going to * this run chase up at some point right?

Right on schedule.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Right on schedule.

Classic Pakistan, can always back them in to **** it up someway or how.

If I hear a Pom whinge about the VAR robbing them I'll be pointing out Pope's grassed catch.

Are we saying that Pakistan are the A-League of world cricket?

Joel Wilson should lose his job for that, what a disgusting decision

A little from column A, a little from column B.

Yes. **** the Argies after the way they carried on against and after the match with the Dutch.

 

[gaskin]

Absolute ****ing joke. All the fans, players, coaches, and team owners are dead against this. This is going to get ugly.

Remarkable collapse by the Thunder in progress... 5/9 after 3 overs!

 

[estibador]

Make that 6/9!!!

 

[estibador]

Lol... I bet their #9 didn't think he'd be out there by the start of the 5th over.

 

[estibador]

Haha 8/10, this is amazing.

 

[CakeEater]

Lol... I bet their #9 didn't think he'd be out there by the start of the 5th over.

Out of there you mean?

 

[estibador]

All out for 15! Glad I got to witness that piece of history.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

All out for 15

 

[Outshined]

I remember getting pissed off at one of the old school EA cricket games and turning the edges up to 100.

**** me, didn't realise you could do it in real life too.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

South Africa in a bit of strife. Although to be fair you can barely tell the pitch from the oval there’s that much grass on it.

Boland 2/5 just carrying on where he left off.

SA 4/27
