Given ABdV is coming in next, I wouldn't be surprised to see him being given the instruction to have a crack while the ball is still old. If South Africa can get a move on in the middle session, they could conceivably give themselves a full 4 sessions to bowl England out.

Is there any chance of good bowling conditions arriving later on? That may well dictate when they declare.
They'd probably sacrifice an extra 50 runs if they got the ideal conditions for Steyn etc.

following the cricket on CricInfo only. They categorise bowlers. One would be rfm (which I reckon is right fast medium) and the other as rmf (right medium fast).
Since I am suurounded by Gurus ,,,, could somebody explain to me the difference as it shows in real cricket?
Thank you.

I wouldn't say silly. If I were CSTA (Anderson the nightwatchy) I would much prefer to face Kallis late at the end of the day.
Yeah or perhaps Duminy to play a one day style cameo. If he's ever going to make runs it would be in this sort of situation. I also expect Amla to up the rate when/if he reaches 200.

You'd definitely want more than 10 overs tonight for mine.

Around tea IMO.

It's a good question. I've often wondered a similar thing with wides in one dayers. Could the fielding team review a wide because they know it hit some part of the leg? They may lose the review but save the wide?

Nah he means if it's given not out and fielding team reviews it.
My understanding of it has always been the adjective before the subject - so RFM would mean a faster version of medium, whereas RMF would mean a more moderate version of fast.
The subject dictates terms, as fas as I'm concerned. I could be completely wrong though; although there is very little in it.
RM -> RFM -> RMF -> RF
This. He's been absolutely incredible at it. He's developed as a batsman though, so he now knows his game and can innovate from any position - he's almost a soft dismissal-less Mark Waugh.
Only KP would be anywhere near as threatening in a 2/400 position, IMO.

Yes definitely thinking the same thing. By that stage they should be at least 200 ahead.

Depends how long he bats for, if he bats through to the declaration he may be tired and not bowled today. he is the veteran of the side after all so they do need to look after him a touch.
Think they will declare around tea anyway with a 250 lead.
