Also just a quick note on Umar Gul, Cricinfo has him down at twenty four years old but the Sky info bar states his 22, anyone hazard a guess at how old Gul is?

I'm pretty sure I once heard one of the commentators say he was 22

Dipenaar lucky he didn't get out on that run, that was such a stupid call

I'm inclined to disagree on the part of Boeta being quality his shown to be just as useless as Gibbs so far. His still there but **** knows how. Also in regard to Gibbs, surely South Africa need to ditch him or play him further down the order, his lost the plot and why is he batting so square on, his not from Guyana is he?

India have to play on this ground on Sunday, if the pitch is anything like this Dravid will be the only Indian to get into double figures.

India is playing on the other wicket which is hardly green.

Lol, harsh. Boeta is moving his feet, and handling the ball rising as best as he can. Of course he's played and missed at a few (and that edge was a bad shot), anyone would when the pitch is doing so much early and the bowlers are putting the ball in the right places. He's no Kallis or Rahul, but I can't think of anyone else in the SA team that should be out there with Kallis to handle this onslaught of quality fast bowling.

Out! What a great catch by Akmal, Dipenaar is out 27-3 and the collapse continues

Wish Australia and India were playing on this pitch. It's something out of McGrath's most beautiful dream.

TT Boy · 27-10-2006, 03:49 AM

Interesting to see how AB will approach this and at least the wicket has pace and bounce which he should enjoy.

Dravid · 27-10-2006, 03:50 AM

Any source to confirm that? I'm not going against you or anything, I just want to know how you know. Was it said start of the match cause I might have missed it.

Nah we'll be right thanks. That brown one will do fine.

Pratters · 27-10-2006, 03:57 AM

Kallis hit where the unmentionables are. Brumby jumps in glee.

TT Boy · 27-10-2006, 04:00 AM

And his out two balls later.
