FIRST TEST: England v South Africa

[brandon]

Modern

 

[Bri]

and I reckon Dawson has bowled better than his figures suggest.....

 

[Liverpool Beachball]

Get them out under 100 please

 

[Onlyfoolsrushin]

Delighted for Moeen.

 

[dixonsafc]

Worrying about 20-30 runs in the second innings, and we might not even need the full thing.

 

[Jack Torrance]

Philander is canny mind

 

[LD19SAFC]

Cracking win that

 

[Liverpool Beachball]

Job done

 

[CraigyLee]

See they're walking off South Africa must have knocked them off quick

 

[Onlyfoolsrushin]

A Good all round team performance. MoM Moeen for me. 10 wickets and 94 runs

 

[TopCat]

Been out most the day, albeit staying in touch with the scores. 19 wickets in 1 day!!

 

[Sandboy]

Good game, cracking wicket

Surprising considering it's a pancake @SA96

Aye, but the pitch didn't play any part. They were all shit players.

 

[The Red Telephone]

Good win by England and the FTECB will have a face like shite as the game fails to go to the fifth day.

 

[Bri]

I reckon Sky/Gower are emphasising dropped chances too much..... catches or bad shots that a batsmen only just gets away with nearly always happen. Hardly anyone who makes a big score does it without giving a chance somewhere along the line.

The SA side of Smith, Peterson, Amla, Kallis, De Villiers would have chased that down.

Well the England side of Strauss, Cook, Trott, Bell and Pieterson would have set them a higher target

Your point is utterly irrelevant but I'll humour you. No they wouldn't have. That's why it's only 1 score higher has been chased in the history of test cricket at Lords.

Teams don't chase down 300+ on day 4/5 pitches. You obviously don't watch or understand cricket.
