England v South Africa - Test series

[SteveH]

Strauss out 1st over 0-1

 

[Dinghy]

Not that I would use such a thing, but was just gently musing as to if this might be showing on a Sopcast channel...

 

[SteveH]

36-1

 

[yuni]

[Kendall]

Huge test series this.

Great days for England

 

[Super Tottenham]

Here comes the collapse. 2 wickets down already.

 

[Kendall]

Bopara can fuck off out of the test side. We really need to find a suitable candidate to come in because we've been short of a consistent replacement for Collingwood.

 

[SteveH]

Bopara (aka Droopy) is no test player.
Bell was poor today also.

 

[Nocando]

How many chances will Bopara get? Surely the selectors have realised he is a shit test player and only good against average bowlers. Do us a favour Ravi and retire.

To be fair to Ravi he has been playing well. Maybe we need to give him a break?

 

[Nocando]

hes had to many chances so i dont see the point he wont suddenly turn into a great batsman.

Granted he is inconsistent. He drives me mad - we call him Droopy

in our house.
Would still give him a couple more tests.

 

[SteveH]

ouch! that was a bad day for England.

Amla was outstanding - fair play to him - truly world class.

 

[theShiznit]

Love the way Sky billed this as THe 2 best bowling attacks in the world and "fight fire with Fire"...

snooze fest...

Curators will probably take the blame though.

 

[Kendall]

unfortunately some great weather came at the wrong time. a few more clouds and this one might have been exciting.

If it stays nice tomorrow we should get a draw.

 

[tototoner]

some batting performance from SA

 

[Welshiespursboyo]

Even with a wicket already gone, I still think it should be a draw. Weather is set to be sunny with no clouds again tomorrow, and all England really need to do is to see off this new ball. They have the players with the talent and form to do that.

 

[bern]

Not now they havent!
