I saw Graeme Smith outside their team hotel this morning signing autographs, before boarding the team bus (the hotel is next to work)
I said to him "make sure you get out before you reach 20, e.g. by driving at a wide one, and there'll be a £5 and a signed photo of Danny Hollands for you".
looking forward to going tomorrow! Little shower at paddington just now, so did they take early lunch? I can see the roof of Lords from my work window!
I'm always happy to see Kallis getting out. Excellent player and all that, but he's always been willing to claim catches when they've clearly been grounded and he's failed to walk when he knows he's hit the ball. He deserves the odd bad decision against him.
Great start lads. Saffers have had a lot of luck in this series so far, about time it turned in our favour. Well done Finn.
Could not agree more, how much luck has the opener Petersen had? His 180 in the last Test was so lucky it was outrageous, he must have played and missed 20 odd times.
About time England had some luck go their way - the look on Kallis' face was priceless!
I hope that rain delays a bit of play as I haven't seen England attack for ages. Last time was in oz. we only ever end up seeing batting and thats not as much fun.
haha, I did think that when I was sulking over olympic tickets. It's not like I haven't seen other amazing things - I've been very lucky! (couldn't go to cafc parachute day though!)
still a bit expensive for me. rather try and get in for £15/£20 maybe a tenner on some occasions. espicially as i know i'll be drinking a fair bit plus travel, i got to keep the ticket price cheap. most fifth days have been pretty good, have been ending around 3, 4 maybe, then off to the pub.
Agree cafcfan1990 - SA bat all the way down, but 250... even with a couple of rookie batsmen and no figjam we should be capable of putting on a lead. Note choice of wording - I've been watching England too long!

Looking good. little rain in the air though, should be ok.
Dreadful decision
