    if they are then that probably the reason why we have taken any wickets...........can we ask them to put them back ?

    Amla run out. Huge wicket. We weren't going to get him out any other way! Just got to get Kallis out now. And de Villiers... and Petersen is set... should we have batted first?

    There's a great quote for Boycott a few years ago, "If you win the toss and the conditions favour batting, you bat. If you win the toss and the conditions aren't as favourable, you think about it for a while, then you bat"

    boycott not happy with the bowling, especially with finn and his knees hitting the non strikers stumps.

    the question is why was cook there as a slip. great batsman but not so great in the field.

    because there was no Swann

    exactly, and i think its a mistake leaving swann out. time will tell.

    but with what we got there must be someone who can slip field better than cook.

    Finn got the Steyn wicket, one each for the bowlers today, still think Broad has been poor this year, would have dropped him for Finn rather than Swann.

    we need to get a draw out of this and hope to win the last test - the batsmen need to step up after the last test.

    we can still win this one... can't say it's the most likely outcome.

    England chasing 253 in 39 overs with KP opening. Surely we can't pull this off?

    If we had.another 15 overs it would have been close, but I feel this is well out of reach...nice to see us pit in kp to open though
