It's a joke when the No.1 ranked team bowls wides like that... Can't believe the ump is not calling them like they did in the 1st test.

Moment has dropped! Doolan 5 of 30.


I want Rogers and his switch hits back(I expect some abuse about this being test cricket)

It's negative bowling but it is understandable.

David Warner's body language is amusing... he looks so annoyed... yet he doesn't try and hit him (in the cricketing sense not the Root night club sense)... he is a strange bloke is Warner.

Apparently(was mentioened on cric info) Graeme smith was trying to wind Warner up last night by constantly mentioning joe root?

Not sure if it worked, but his last 30 balls he's gone from t20 mode. To you shall not get my wicket mode.

The lead could have been 450 plus by now had the last hour not been so negative from both sides.

510 lead before declaration...sheer overkill.

Once lead reached 450, call them in.

The last 60 runs were perfunctory and have only given SA less overs to face if they have the wherewithal to eek out a draw.

Crazy, crazy stuff.

Guard of honour for Biff...I must confess, I have a lump in my throat.

I am going to miss the big lug.

Maybe so, but I am not being unpatriotic in saying that I wanted Smith to blaze one more half century before he went.

Sadly, it was not to be.

Nothing boring about this test match.. This is what it's all about. Some games you want drama of a tight run chase... this one is the drama of 'can they hold out'.. There is just as much skill in surviving as there is in blazing away to a glorious failure. test cricket!! love it
