If we had scored the same 350 yesterday, they would have been flat by now. We are waiting for the declaration now unfortunately, no plans of getting the 20 wickets, it looks like.

If that's the case why not just throw the bowl to Hammy or Bobby just for the to have a go to. Total is already well out of our reach.

Consolation wicket for Cremer :W:

I don't get why Mpofu hasn't had any more spells.

I agree. It's not like Raza was threatening at all.

How many of you got reminded of this Andy Blignaut stunner when you saw that Sean Williams catch?

I really enjoyed Tino’s commentary. The session with Ian Bishop was excellent, he’s a good guy as well. He’s a real student of the game, very interesting guy, he should get a lot more gigs.

Burl is a better bat than Willy.

Was actually thinking that Williams owes us a knock. It's been a while. I wonder if Burl takes his bowling seriously. Could become a useful all rounder if he works on it.

I meant William Mashinge, not Williams. Taps- why is he banned?
