***Official*** Australia in South Africa

[Howe_zat]

Love the Steyn hype almost as much as Steyn's bowling, 'cause he's the only bowler in world cricket who lives up to it.

Pleasantly surprised to see Philander bowling. Saffies look a very, very strong side.

 

[Days of Grace]

Keep this guy away from the chix and he could become a very good bowler for South Africa.

Think the Aussies will find it a bit tougher coming up against actual Test bowlers.

Fair increase in standard facing Steyn, Morkel and Philander compared to Welegedara, Lakmal and Eranga.

Good test for Marsh coming up. This series could make set himself up for a full summer.

Oh my.

This could end really

really

really

badly.

In fairness, that's a decent FC attack.

Lad deserved it. Surprisingly good debut thus far. Guy's a real prospect!

 

[Bobisback]

Dont worry guise, Clarke and Ponting still to come in. Lolz.

Lets hope Huss comes in next.

 

[NUFAN]

These are the exact conditions that I would have loved to have seen S.Katich up the top of the order.

Well bowled son.

 

[Noble One]

Proper Test cricket right now. Recent history suggests Australia are in plenty of trouble at the moment.

 

[Spark]

tbf it's very rough to blame either too much, they were both jaffas that you basically have to hope you don't edge.

Phlianderer strikes

 

[Spikey]

i said 200 tops





i'll take 100 thx

 

[Jayzamann]

Okay confidence in that magical 100 mark is pretty low right now.

 

[Kylez]

Philander looks quite the bowler. I'm suprised he only made his debut today, especially with those FC stats of his.

Hughes copped a jaffa there.

 

[Daemon]

PHILANDERRRR!!

[Woodster]

Another beautiful delivery, this time from Philander. He's deserved that for his start, looks as though he could be an ideal foil for Steyn and Morkel. Hughes does look ugly when he's squared up like that, was lucky to get away with it the ball before.

 

[Burgey]

Copeland would have carved up in this.

Massiv day for Boucher, tbh. 500 catches. Nice!
