Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
**The 2 wickets in last session slowed down aussies run rate .......... otherwise they were doing great ......
The earlier hype of "End of Australian dominance" seems to be fading away .
**
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
**after 303-4 last night .....
the last 6 aussies wckts fell cheap . adding just 49 more runs .......
South Africa chocked too ......... they are 138/7 ......... with Duminy at 73*
**
Johnson (3/37) - he has taken 11 wickets at 15.81 in the series so far - is doing what McGrath did for Australia for so long. He is still young (27) and should carry their bowling for another 4 or 5 years atleast. Although he failed here he is no mug with the bat either
Australia did collapse though from 208/1 to 352 all out!!
Even if SA save the follow-on - need 15 more (153) - they are in danger of conceding a massive first innings lead. Duminy's (73*) wicket is the key.
Australia should win from here
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
sup with this mitchel jhonson?
he seems to be hurtign players more than gettign them out
smith injured AGAIN and kallis got hurt too this time tx to mitchy! 
old windies trick 
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
no wonder they were the world champions and batsmen used to shiver facing their bowlers 
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
**i wonder y West Indies is unable to produce tall fast bowlers now
back to this game …
Australia lost their last 5 wickets for 4 runs …
tht shows how difficult it is for tailenders to bat in this pitch …
**
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
things were different back then now only nations with big pockets can produce fast bowlers
khair yeah this pitch is pretty bouncy. i remember graeme smith asking them not to make that bouncy pitches. but still they do it.
ok i soud like micheal holding now im going back to cafe 
yeh kitnee sadiyoon purani baat hai ??
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
last year when new zealand toured SA
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)

Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
SA all out at 138??? 
Now Australia 2nd inning 203/1 at 
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
**n australia again hesitated to enforce follow on
**
Close of Play Day3
Australia lead by 506 runs with 7 wickets remaining
Don't know why SA are struggling at home considering they beat the same team in their own backyard only a few months ago
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
506 is a mammoth lead and 2 days of game is still remaining. Australia should play one more session of day 4 extending their lead to 600+ and then allow SA to play 5 sessions.
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
*wat abt Smith ...
is he still injured ?
*
Re: SA vs AUS 2nd test (Durban)
aussies declared the innings at 331
SA needs 546 runs to win. doesnt look possible:hmmm:
*wat abt Smith ... is he still injured ? *
yes he is injured and cant bat in the second innings, so SA are compelled to chase the huge score with 10 batsmen.
Right now : 63/0
