The best captaincy move would have been to take Morne off after the first over. Would have been so epic.

Basically telling Strauss we only bowled Morne to get you cos you're his bunny bitch!

But Holding, Warne and all these other ****s acting like Vernon Philander is a trundler is so ****.

South Africa bowling badly against left handed batsmen. Morne Morkal should be bowling. Cook should get more runs they way South Africa are bowling.

Yup. Wasn't all that fussed about how Philander went, but I hope he has a good series now so it knocks a few of them in the box on the head.

Good to know Holding has heard through the "grapevine" that Steyn's record vs. left-handers isn't very good.

Holding has never been good though, he's just always had a groovy accent.

He used to at least not be a grumpy prick. Now he just rants and raves about WI cricket whilst doing **** all about it, and when it comes to other teams, he just reckons everything in cricket is ****.

Frustrating to listen to all the time.

Are Steyn and Anderson comparable on class? No way.
Are they comparable on form? No (according to ICC ratings).
If the rankings have an equal gap between Steyn and Anderson, and Anderson and a bloke who's bowled in 3 Tests in the last year then they're massively flawed.

Trott and Cook are such a solid pairing, quite possibly the best in world cricket. About as exciting to watch as Deal or no Deal, but nevertheless they give England such useful stability after an early wicket.

Didn't even make a poll asking for the best Devon overseas

Some listed were -
JP Duminy (Exmouth) - He must of scored ****ing millions on that deck.
Stuart MacGill (Heathcoat)
Chris Rogers (Exeter and North Devon)
Aizaz Cheema (Cornwood)
Fanie de Villiers (Torquay)

All the debate over Steyn and Anderson is made kind of funny by Philander and Broad conquering worlds in the last 12 months.
