I see Kallis got auctioned for 900 000 dollars that's 10 million rand and this is the seventh IPL.I wonder how much money he has made all together from the IPL.

My conservative estimate would be... a shitload

So glad Clarke is gone!! Now to get Brad Haddin when he comes out to bat. Looking good so far.

 

[Tom]

Yip, Clarke was the key wicket! Steyn executed the plan to perfection!!! Beauty!

Haddin will be the next major wicket, but i must admit Marsh is bugging me... Hes looking very patient...

 

[DieGrootHammer]

Some really interesting comments being made on the ESPN Cricinfo page. Guys are not talking nonsense.

Marsh is indeed settling in nicely. He just scores his 50

 

[Tom]

One idiot said philander is hopeless... retard.... with an average of 18, yes hes hopeless.... philander just needs one wicket to get him going....

 

[DieGrootHammer]

Sorry I've seemed to have added a not in my previous post. Tom, I saw that, and what I meant to say was "Guys are talking nonsense".

 

[Tom]

Ah ok got you... I was wondering if you were reading the same thing I was ;-)

 

[KrustyThePirate]

Marsh and Smith getting a bit too comfortable now, really could do with a wicket just before tea.

 

[Tom]

Agreed.... Aussies have come back quite well this session....

 

[Crableg]

Yeah i dont like this, 210 for 4, need a breakthrough before the end of play.

 

[Tom]

Seems like the pitch has flattened out a hell of a lot as the days progressed... We will be lucky to get another wicket this afternoon i feel... Tomorrow morning is going to be key... We need to have them out by lunch so we can take advantage of the good batting periods...

Hopefully we can get Marsh before he reaches 100... Dont like Aussies getting hundreds against us...

We are in deep shit hopefully we get some early wickets.Marsh and smith batted really well we are in for a battle.

You hit the nail on the head... If we dont rattle them out before lunch were seriously up shit creak... Its already looking bad... We can come back from it, but its going to be an uphill battle...

Play has just started time for the miracles to happen lol.

 

[Tom]

Yip... got a good feeling about this morning have we had any opportunities to review anything? I see we havent used any, just wondering....

No we have had no reviews we better take wickets because once the ball gets over 35 overs old that pitch looks dead.

I was thinking about it last night, why in God's name did we let them bat 1st, that wicket is useless for bowling, there is something in it but the bowlers will need to work extremely hard...I reckon we should have batted 1st.

 

[Tom]

Well everyone is now slating Smith for putting them in... apparently Steyn had A stomach bug yesterday, and now Morkel is out injured... its going from bad to worse...
