Jamieson follows CdG's very poor example

A rapid fire 40 batting at 7 isn't really that bad, is it?

I was referring to the lazy shot to be dismissed by, but you already knew that, you naughty lad.

Runs from the 11 batsman are a killer for the bowlers.

Not long ago I finished work, switched it on at 390-9 and hoped we’d reach 400. They have put another 70 on very quickly and without the feel of slogging. It has been quality batting from Blundell and Henry.

Blundell out one boundary from his ton but he and Henry had a superb partnership. Lead of 387 and time for a few overs before stumps.

Boucher head on the block. Playing without a spinner make this painful to watch. They never learn.

Has Southee been watching Stuart Broad with more celebration than appeal for that LB? I’m not a fan.

Typical Elgar block. Just hang the bat out, no foot movement.

The BCs totally dominated the first three days of the Handle test in Brisbane in 1985.

We dominate the Black Caps for ages. Time for them to break the shackles.

Bavuma & Rassie won't last long with this T20 approach

This is as bad as missing my alarm and waking up to the 57-0 North Harbour Stadium Massacre of 2017. Only a mass team outbreak of Omicron can save us now.

Poor okes! I can't imagine what the morale in that dressing room must be now.

Boucher needs to fall on his sword now. Not really his fault but the whole Sword of Damocles situation with his hearing must be weighing heavily on him and the team.

Looks like it could be somewhere in the Natal Midlands. I love grassy banks for watching cricket.

Now we have the Crappers on the ropes. Bavuma to notch up his 1st double ton, Rassie to go big also

You don't have DStv, so you won't be able to watch.
