Bops is destroying Steyn.

England world number 1? they just a mickey mouse team, can beat the weaker teams but crumble against the best.

Any sign of that rain fellas? We need a flood and bloody quickly

I would be gutted only Ernie Els has just won The Open and is using up all my sporting efforts. What a shock.

Is it me or is Bopara looking like the proverbial DBs If some of our boys can fight a little here, we can get some sort of score, get past the saffers score and make them bat again. All of this should kill time?
Win or lose, I am loving this test match where we are getting creamed but are still in there fighting.

I blame Maski on this England demise...
A Good England performance and win always evolves around a bad round of Golf from Maski. Tut, tut.

Yes Neon, playing your boys and australia has clearly been making us look better than we actually are

It's our time and we will save this test match, one way or the other. 156 runs behind and counting

LMAO onceinalifetime, and believe it or not, I have been in superb form out on the golf course for the past couple of months, both in norway and cyprus, so maybe the England cricket team need me to start plonking my Titleist NXT Tour ball back into water?

Well blow me sideways. Ravi looking like a test match cricketer for the first time in his life, and with dinger around I can see an extraordinary fightback by the nr one side on the planet - England.

I am not sure what to think at this point in time neon. We have been totally and utterly outplayed for 3 whole days now, in England which I thought was unthinkable to be honest.

I am hoping for a good fight by the rest of our batsmen tomorrow and then plenty of rain

The Saffers have been superb so far, and I would love to get to the second test match all square with them, whatever it takes.

What is the weather like over there ?

with all that you also have to take nto account whether bowlers are not drained. They have bowled ridiculosly many overs on the trott. I guess the groundmen will be waiting to make it bowlers friendly the next 2 matches if england lose this one. They've probably had their lesson of not taking SA, like other teams that hv toured england before, who used to fail in the flattest tracks ever.

"We have been totally and utterly outplayed for 3 whole days now, in England which I thought was unthinkable to be honest."

2 reasons for this, England aren't that good and you can't think.

Again Maksi shows his cricketing knowledge by predicting England 200-1 at the close of play.

lol

SouthAfrica has not lost the habit of choking.England had managed 'miraculous escapes' of late so it is not over yet.

tbh I can SA up for it. They have shown tremendous deteremination and the will to do it. I can only see sa going stronger with kallis also probably going to hv a bowl tomorrow. Eng's luck lies in bell and prior, and maybe bopara. dont expect the bowlers to deal with the spin of tahir, and pace of steyn and morkel.

Test cricket at its best

Maski best mate Ravi Bopara to score 150 tomorrow to save game
