    Conway gets a life. He's struggling big time. Richardson trying hard to make it sound like the saffa keeper didn't just fuck up a sitter

    Now KW gets a life. Sitter of a catch put down. This is such an average SA team.

    Brand a good chance for a 10fer if he keeps himself on.

    He's never seen an appeal off his own bowling that he won't review.

    Cmon Kane, could have boosted your average if you didn't get out.

    @Damo That's being kind, this SA D team wouldn't beat Zimbabwe.

    Probably a declaration overnight so Brand will be stranded on 8 for the match. Shame, wonder if anyone has ever got 10 and opened the batting.

    @Cyclops Mankad picked up 13 against Pakistan opening the batting. In more recent times Jayasuriya took 9 against Zim

    He leaves Hayden, Root and Chanderpaul behind in career hundreds.

    One behind the Aussie Steves - Smith and Waugh now. 21 innings less than SS. 90 innings less than SW.

    Typical of him though isn’t it, team first.

    Even though we've almost certainly got enough, I would bat on tomorrow and take the Jaaps completely out of the game - even mathematically - set them 600 in 5.5 sessions.

    Need to ensure we remove that "never beaten them in a series" and giving their bowlers a bit more work will help a bit in test 2.

    That is incredible reading.

    A couple or three years ago Smith very clearly lead that ‘big four’

    Not anymore. It’s him AND KW now.

    @MN5 The couple of years Smith lost to sandpaper helped narrow the gap.

    It's not just about this game, we can weaken their bowlers for the rest of the series. I remember the Aussies did that to us in the Perth day night test a few years ago and we never recovered in that series

    They are now. Declare 10 mins before start of play. Fucks with their head enough.

    Still pisses me off we don't enforce the follow on.

    We bowled like 2 sessions. They're demoralised. 360 behind. We have seven bowlers, 2 and a half days, and 3 new balls.

    I do not understand.

    Only 3 ahead of him in the number of centuries list currently with a better average (Smith, Sangakara, Kallis).

    I'm no Francis Payne, but from my quick check.. Kane also just surpassed Howarth (held since 78) for the most aggregate runs in a test match where batter scores a 100 in each innings minimum for a NZer. So 2 x 100 needed in a test for this.

    top spot globally unlikely to get beaten in a while... virtual chocolate fish if anyone wants to guess who holds it?

    Random guess ... Chris Gayle ... no reason...
