International Cricket

@Englander

can't you multi-task? No idiots today...beyond the usual...

Disillusioned a little with the racing just now Pirho... too many invaders or agents winning in PE and difficult to assess form etc, too many dodgy review results, Christmas trainers winning as some put it, track conditions continue to vary too much etc etc etc... taking a small break i think and enjoying the cricket for a couple of days

Still trying to stay awake after watching England.
I just love it when you have a spinner at both ends and the ball is turning.
More overs,fielders around the bat and batsmen trying to be patient.
Makes it an exciting test

Not sure why the length of time an event takes should necessitate whether there has to be a winner and loser FH :S
If you can't appreciate the fantastic effort the South Africans are making to save the match, switch on to the India-England match, there'll be a winner relatively shortly in that one and then maybe life will make some sense again (

Nice to see the Proteas still hanging on (with some assistance from Wade)

Test cricket is as much about the effort going in to a achieve a result (and a draw is also a result) as the result itself - if you want instant gratification try a slot machine (tu)

Congratulations to England - and my wallet a little () - a truly fine performance (tu)

Brilliant hundred by debutant Du Plessis, two outstanding innings by him. (tu)

What is the update?

234/7 8 overs left, Steyn just gone for a well played duck.
