And somehow Elliot manages to gap-it straight away

Garson007 · 22-01-2013, 06:30 AM

McClaren to relieve all pressure. Where have I seen that before?

kingkallis · 22-01-2013, 06:31 AM

This certainly looks likes a belter of a wicket...

Agree, even if NZ do get a 260+ score, SA should easily get their noses in front considering NZ only scored 19 in the first 10.

54/2? Not a bad start.

He sure bowls a lot of kak

Daemon · 22-01-2013, 06:45 AM

wtf is with the half volleys? easily been about 10 since Watling got out. gifting away runs to Williamson who's timing them superbly.

Zinzan · 22-01-2013, 06:51 AM

You'd think McCullum's decision to promote Elliott was one based purely on emotion given it's Elliott's old home track. If so, good captaincy imo.

Howsie · 22-01-2013, 06:54 AM

Elliott v Spin, should be interesting.

Zinzan · 22-01-2013, 07:01 AM

Yup, Elliott looks suspect against spin.

Nice footwork Williamson.

Garson007 · 22-01-2013, 07:31 AM

You have to think no matter what score NZ gets they will be 30 short, because of their slow start.

Zinzan · 22-01-2013, 07:32 AM

Yep, pitch looks like a road built on a road.

Meridio · 22-01-2013, 07:37 AM

Indeed, these two have done well so far, but it looks like a roady mcroad. Will need 300+ imo.

Zinzan · 22-01-2013, 07:45 AM

As good a pitch as it looks, I think the NZ bowlers will vary their pace better than SA have & I'm hoping it just slows a touch this evening.

I want to see someone actually take control of the match and set a good score or time a chase perfectly.

Unfortunately the only people who are capable of this are on SA's side.

I know nothing about cricket.
