Second Test - Australia Vs South Africa at Kingsmead, Durban (Fri-Tue)

[Flawed Genius]

Seems a fairly simple catch on the replay.

 

[Dez!]

****!! My wife has taken over the TV watching Kathy Griffin and I am missing this. arrggh!!!!!!!

Go Chris Brown on her.

 

[aussie1st]

Wooohoooo go Hughes what a way to bring up your maiden 100. He looked a bit dodgy against the spin in the 1st test but today no worries at all.

 

[Schache It Off]

YES!!! 100!

I was a little late

He will be the next Bradman.

 

[Vegas.]

Love the swagger on this guy. Love it. Just flashing the blade at the best bowling line up in international cricket like it's a district 5ths Twenty20 game.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Hughes seems to be going for it now. Down on one knee and slicing backward of point.

Dale who?

 

[sherb]

It was more than a half-chance Brett Procter.

 

[rdhopkins2]

WOuld have been a miracle catch from Amla. The aftershock of that stroke could be felt in Melbourne.

Alma also dropped Clarke I hear, this could prove costly on this wicket. Funny enough SA have fallen apart this series in the thing that won them the last series i.e taking all their chances.

 

[HawkieTalkie]

This is eerily similar to Michael Slater's first century for Australia.

It came in his 2nd test match (Lords), as part of a big stand (260 from memory) with Mark Taylor, and he scored much quicker than the Tubman - as Hughes is doing to Katich now.

Slats made 152 or so.

This kid has shown great ticker, following his dismissal in the first innings in Jo'burg.

 

[Flawed Genius]

It was more than a half-chance Brett Procter.

Don't worry, Mark Nicholas let him know.

 

[Spikey]

Stick it up Cullinan and co who have been consistenly bagging what they believe to be 'flaws' and not focusing on his talent! Biased pig.

Quite ironic seeing how Hughes has scored more runs against SA in two innings than Cullinan managed in 13 against Australia...

 

[LIONS then DAYLIGHT]

Paintball gun?

Thats an antique.

 

[HawkieTalkie]

Great call Spikey. Cullinan strikes me as being REALLY bitter.

 

[Flawed Genius]

So they bring Morkel back?

 

[KingCJ]

I really enjoyed those 2 sixes Hughes hit to bring up his ton.

Cullian's pretty good i thought.

Exactly what the gramps was saying! Can't believe how biased a commentator could possibly be. It's sickening. I think when Hughes was on 40, he was saying how 'it cant be long before he nicks one, hes played and missed at so many' and then he gets to 80, and talks about how if there was movement in the pitch then he'd be struggling.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Still waiting for Morkel to show me some of those "exquisite skills" all the commentators tell me he has. All I see is a grossly over-rated pie chucker.

 

[Selective Retention]

Hayden scored 149 runs in 5 tests in the australian summer, Hughes has 181* in 3 innings.

 

[grizzlym]

huge percentage of boundaries (not forgetting sixes too) in this innings so far.

 

[LIONS then DAYLIGHT]

STill got nothing on James Anderson from England. The biggest pie chucker i have ever seen who is regarded as a front line bowler.

 

[Plogs]

Paintball gun?

Thats an antique.

Dont let the rusty shaft & duct tape fool ya....
