***Official*** Australia in South Africa

[LegionOfBrad]

Morkel looking unplayable when he pitches it on a length.

****ing

KIDDING

[Daemon]

**** me, Morkel is bowling some amazing stuff here.

 

[Spark]

****ing moronic.

 

[TumTum]

Almost lunch time anyway.

WDRS (Weather Decision Review System) not in operation for this Test series?

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.

Especially on a wicket that's doing a bit. Good to see some decent bowling, Saffas have been going really well this morning. Philander must be pretty happy to get his debut here too. Looks very good.

Hmm didn't take long for Australia to go back to the tried and failed 3 quick scatter-gun pacer attack did it? To be fair South Africa is the one place where it might work, but they didn't take long to dump Copeland for no apparent reason.

 

[Ruckus]

What is par on this? 200? 250? It looks pretty crazy out there.

You include Harris in that? Or are you saying it should be Harris, Copeland, and someone else?

Well Harris isn't tried and tested. Indeed Harris/MJ/Siddle and Dougeh/MJ/Siddle has worked........mainly because of Harris and Dougeh

No apparant reason? Recent form has Siddle easily in favour of Copeland.

I would prefer Copeland for containment, however it's hard to blame the selectors for making the decision.

 

[Ruckus]

Harris is going to be a hell of a handful if the pitch stays anywhere like it is now. Can't wait to watch it tbh.

 

[morgieb]

**** we're gonna get **** on here.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Siddle & Johnson together is a recipe for day-long pie-fests.

Have no problem with Harris, he seems to at least have some control and consistency.

Tahir is bowling in Tests

About ****ing time isn't it

 

[TumTum]

Harris is a better choice than Tahir. We usually do well against leg spinners, but struggle against containing spinners.

 

[Daemon]

Really good first over.

Dunno, probably needs a few more FC wickets to sort out his game....

 

[Spikey]

should have reviewed it - was hitting middle
