3rd Test v South Africa

[NormanbyRed77]

Great start by the bowlers 32-4 already

 

[NormanbyRed77]

Make that 5 down wow

 

[DCI_Gene_Hunt]

3 days should be ample for this. Sounds like England could bowl it round corners at the moment

 

[NormanbyRed77]

Robinson again on fire 6 down

 

[Borotommo]

Might get to see Harry Brook bat today

Before lunch?.

 

[Borotommo]

Before lunch?.

No, I’d hope we’ll be still “none down” by lunch.

2 Day win on the cards. What a start for Ben Stokes

 

[Cardiffdaffs]

The standard of test match batting in this series is quite pathetic. When you compare this to the NZ series earlier in the Summer its chalk and cheese

 

[Kosovo]

Positive start by Harry Brook

 

[Kosovo]

Kiss of death by me

 

[Kosovo]

Good bowling or poor batting.

Root, Brook and Stokes got themselves out.

SA back in by the end of play

 

[Cardiffdaffs]

Not the best session for England this morning you could say.....

 

[Kosovo]

Who in the SA setup thought Rickelton technique would work in England. That was shocking to watch

I hate it but he's been in very good county form. For me the batting in this series has been shocking. On both sides. This could be over today and that would be a two day test and certainly will be a three day test - meaning all three tests will have not gone stretched into a fourth day never mind five.
