Well theyve got enuf to declare, but if theyve got any sense they'll have some batting practice today and they'll still have 2 days to bowl at us.

Masekesa has bowled really well. They need to persevere with him so he can clear his head and not be bowling for his life every time he plays. Its the only way he can learn how to deal with really good batters going after him.

I've enjoyed Pollock's commentary. Very quick to point out that TK should just be persevering with that off stump line and not do anything different. Just chip away and let the batter make a mistake. He mostly did that, but a handful of deliveries he had a rush of blood. Just needs to be the consumate professional. You're not going to surprise any of these guys with poorly placed short stuff, they'll put u away.
I've been hugely impressed with him this game, he's been international standard.

That was a great contest between him and Mulder. He gave him too many easy leaves though, was just 6 inches too wide on a lot of his deliveries, but the good ones really bothered Mulder, who batted beautifully.
