South Africa Test Series

[maccatak11]

5 down now 20 minutes before lunch.

We have the big wickets of kallis and devilliars too.

Aussies looking like they will win now. RSA still need over 200 so im thinking they will shut up shop over lunch.

Stayed up to watch it. What a win!
Then stayed up until 6:30

Then got up at 8 for work

[Des]

I think we've found our all rounder.

dave is all-round, but i don't think he could play cricket with the Aussies!

Harsh.

So I guess you can't play, because after Saturday night, you're a chucker..

[David]

Maybe we could replace Paul Harris with Caleb and they won't notice.

can anyone work out why nathan bracken is not in the best 10 pace bowlers in the country in the longer form of the game, but is rated as the 4th best bowler in the world in ODIs?

i think recently he has changed his game so that he bowls more of a medium pace and more cutters etc, instead of seam up, similar to what ian harvey used to do.

but surely he can still bowl seam up and swing it in to right handers in a longer form of the game

is he the new michael bevan of australian cricket?

i can count 10 pace bowlers that have played/selected in squads before bracken recently

clark, lee, johnson, siddle, hilfenhaus, bollinger, mcdonald (if you wanna count him as a pace bowler, which should happen if he bats at 8), mcgoffin, geeves, tait (maybe not in the 5 day format)

normally i am against the NSW bias, but surely he deserves a go ahead of some of these dudes.
