Rain, possibly our only savior.

There must be an English keeper who's a decent out and out gloveman.
The batting is arguably strong enough that as long as they know which end of the bat to hold you could get them into the side? You could argue a decent gloveman would save youa few runs anyway so it would balance itself out.

What gloves is Chris Woakes wearing?
They look like Oblivion E41 whiteouts, but I didn't think that was a range any more.

Woakes gives it away. South Africa were down to 3 bowlers, rabada and morkel tired. Was a great opportunity to get some easy runs in test cricket. Won't get a better chance

He has no future at Test level. He's average with bat and ball.

Agreed. Just shows that Test match is a much more mental/attitude driven game than First Class, his FC record is as good if not better than Stokes with both bat and ball but Woakes isn't fit to lace Stokes' boots at test level. I think Woakes could be a decent white ball player though.

Batted Mo

It's same old same old "but he can bat a bit, gives us a sharp tail"


I don't really care, Finn when playing brings you something, balls wicket taking balls, gets good batsmen jumping about"

Woakes has just bowled buffet up and down, who cares he cracks a decent pace occasionally, it's not troubling test level batsmen.





Fifty for Ali. Time to tee off!!

[smilley792]

Didn't think rabada was gonna make it up the stairs. Well bowled lad. Well bowled.


South Africa 133 ahead. 30 odd overs left tonight.

If our bowlers turn up it could be an interesting chAse. Or we could just be batted out the game and have to survive 4 sessions??

Money on the later being a dead rubber

Elgar wasn't just squared up there he was spun 360 degrees!! He needs to work on that.
