What an absolute bellend Smith is
Australia v South Africa
- Thread starter zing
- Start date
Philander picks up Ponting. Oh well, at least my Skyrim's installing.
What the feck is going in this season?
13/4 
15/5 now!
15/5 now!
Good lawd almighty! What in the feck is going on? Not watching live but wish I was in front of a TV now.
6 down!
18/6! oh my nutsack!
Also Marsh might not come out to bat, so effectively Australia are 7 down.
What the feck?
It think the Newlands pitch is going to be reported. Has to be after the Galle pitch was reported. This is past extraordinary. I need to leave work early, might miss the end of the test at this rate!
21/7 effectively for 8 if Marsh does not bat
21/8
Bookies are in on this.
9 down!
This is utterly bizzare!
The strange thing is that Australia will most probably win this.
29/9!!!
What the feck is going on? Is it a poor batting surface or have the SA bowlers been brilliant?
Edit: not been watching this, but despite that score the Aussies lead by 217 runs

Yup. I just don't see us chasing 200+ on this wicket and with our batting as it is now. This just shows what a brilliant knock Clarke's was.
What sort of wicket is it?
Erm......WTF?
What we refer to in SA as a 'Green Mamba'
We making long work of this now. And it's going to cost us big time. Every run they score is worth 10 more runs in essence.
47
I'm not going to laugh...SA might not make it to 47! 
Fix.
I don't think the pitch is that bad, batsmen not getting to the pitch of the ball or playing the wrong line , and some very good SA seam bowling, I hope they play sensibly in the second innings as they have 3 days to chase not many runs,
Somewhere out there an illegal bookie just made millions.
And also there was a pretty big No ball by peter siddle in there
81-1. Is this the same pitch?
Amla and Smith have absolutely creamed Australia here.
What a day! Smith had played well, SA will be very happy with that.
Yes. They are free to play now. The money has been made.
mmmm if something similar had happened on any of the pitches in sub continent, loads would have started to bang on about poor pitches and all. Not necessarily saying the two collapses happened due to the pitch quality.
Disgraceful batting all round
Or point a suspicious finger (fix).
No way. Aussies, English and the Kiwis dont cheat. All the others are bloody fixers.
Matchfixing?!?!?!? Nope, just a 'Green Mamba', poor batting and excellent bowling.
Not from the Saffers today. Despite all the talk of changes, Australia still remain a side that can get thumped.
The Green Mamba turned into a Green Hosepipe on the same day didn't it?
I hope the game is investigated.
Yeah, because the batsmen actually bothered to apply themselves. But it can get investigated, I'm very confident no wrong doing will be found.
