The first of 4 full blown 5-day Tests between the Proteas and England at SuperSport Park, Centurion on 16 December 2009 at 10:30 SA Time. This is the match thread for the game which will have some score updates from time to time.
Test Drawn:
| South Africa 1st innings | R | M | B | 4s | 6s | SR | ||
 |
GC Smith* | c †Prior b Broad | 0 | 7 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 |
| 1.3 my goodness me, what a stunning moment for England, and what a breakthrough. Nothing much of a delivery, swinging gently down the leg side, but Smith tries to help it down to fine leg, doesn’t get enough bat on it, and Matt Prior leaps like a rampant salmon to snaffle the first wicket of the series! 1/1 | ||||||||
|
AG Prince | c Collingwood b Swann | 45 | 155 | 94 | 6 | 0 | 47.87 |
| 34.2 wow, he’s done it again! Swann has a penchant for early breakthroughs, and that’s a cracker. Perfect length, sharp and unexpected turn, and Paul Collingwood coolly accepts his second catch of the innings! 93/3 | ||||||||
|
HM Amla | c Collingwood b Onions | 19 | 88 | 67 | 2 | 0 | 28.35 |
| 20.5 Got him this time! Onions deserved that. Full and Amla is drawn into a firm drive but edges to Collingwood. Good low catch there going to his right 51/2 | ||||||||
|
JH Kallis | c Collingwood b Anderson | 120 | 306 | 225 | 16 | 1 | 53.33 |
| 96.6 my goodness me, it’s a breakthrough! I did not see that coming. Kallis was looking utterly serene, but Anderson found a good length with a hint of extra bounce and a fraction of away movement, and Collingwood at second slip scooped another fine low catch 283/5 | ||||||||
|
AB de Villiers | c Cook b Swann | 32 | 82 | 66 | 5 | 0 | 48.48 |
| 54.3 gone this time! Thrown up and gets the inside edge from de Villiers’s defensive stroke and goes straight to Cook at short leg. Bit of turn and extra bounce, classic offspinner’s delivery. England really needed that. 159/4 | ||||||||
|
JP Duminy | c Collingwood b Swann | 56 | 218 | 150 | 6 | 1 | 37.33 |
| 108.5 Swann does it again! He has a real habit of getting a wicket early in his spell. Nicely flighted, finds a little turn and Duminy, leaning forward with a slightly open face, guides it to Collingwood at slip who makes no mistake 316/6 | ||||||||
|
MV Boucher† | c Cook b Swann | 49 | 156 | 100 | 6 | 0 | 49.00 |
| 134.1 Swann does the trick again. Regulation offspinners wicket. Pitched outside off stump, spun back sharply, caught the inside edge, and it went straight to Cook, who snaffles it gleefully. Unlucky for Boucher to fall one run short of 50 and England continue to stay just in reach of South Africa 377/8 | ||||||||
|
M Morkel | c †Prior b Onions | 13 | 53 | 48 | 2 | 0 | 27.08 |
| 121.5 he’s gone this time! Still feeling the effects of that blow, perhaps, as that was a bit of a flat-footed waft, and a thin low snick to the keeper, who gathers well 341/7 | ||||||||
|
PL Harris | b Onions | 38 | 117 | 89 | 4 | 0 | 42.69 |
| 150.5 oh, and that is out. Floated up outside off stump, Harris wafted, stood firmly in his crease, and inside edged in on to the base of the stumps. 414/9 | ||||||||
|
F de Wet | lbw b Swann | 20 | 78 | 67 | 3 | 0 | 29.85 |
| 153.2 review. Gets well back and is struck plumb in front. de Wet calls for a review, since South Africa have one in the bank, but third umpire confirms the decision. Swann has five, the third time he’s managed that in his career. 418/10 | ||||||||
| M Ntini | not out | 4 | 9 | 7 | 1 | 0 | 57.14 | |
| Extras | (b 2, lb 15, w 5) | 22 | ||||||

| England 1st innings | R | M | B | 4s | 6s | SR | ||
|
AJ Strauss* | b Ntini | 46 | 138 | 87 | 6 | 0 | 52.87 |
| 28.6 got him! Excellent length again, and this time it keeps low once more. Strauss was in position but the ball skimmed through at shin height, and demolished the off stump! 98/2 | ||||||||
|
AN Cook | c †Boucher b de Wet | 15 | 26 | 17 | 3 | 0 | 88.23 |
| 5.4 there it is! Friedel de Wet has his maiden Test wicket, as Cook pushes at an off-stump delivery, and feathers the thinnest of edges through to Boucher 25/1 | ||||||||
|
IJL Trott | b Harris | 28 | 170 | 117 | 3 | 0 | 23.93 |
| 41.5 oh dear. Trott runs down at Harris and swipes wildly, beaten on the inside edge, looking for turn that wasn’t there. 119/3 | ||||||||
|
KP Pietersen | b Morkel | 40 | 113 | 79 | 3 | 1 | 50.63 |
| 54.5 that’s the breakthrough, and it’s a huge scalp! Back on that probing length from Morkel, and just a hint of nip off the seam. Pietersen couldn’t resist any longer, climbed into an expansive drive, and inside-edged onto his off stump! 168/4 | ||||||||
|
PD Collingwood | c Kallis b Harris | 50 | 133 | 88 | 5 | 1 | 56.81 |
| 71.6 lovely bowling defeats Collingwood! Flighted, it gripped and actually spun, enough to get the outside edge of Collingwood’s defensive shot and it went low to Kallis who makes no mistake 221/7 | ||||||||
|
IR Bell | b Harris | 5 | 23 | 16 | 0 | 0 | 31.25 |
| 59.5 oh my goodness me, that is hideous! Shades of Adam Hollioake in 1997 as Bell shoulders arms to a straight delivery, and has all three stumps demolished! 189/5 | ||||||||
|
MJ Prior† | c de Wet b Harris | 4 | 44 | 34 | 0 | 0 | 11.76 |
| 69.6 oh dear oh dear. Prior goes for an expansive sweep, and Harris finds some extra bounce, it catches the top edge and loops down to de Wet, the only man deep on the leg side, at fine leg. England in all sorts of trouble here and Harris has been the destroyer. 211/6 | ||||||||
|
SCJ Broad | lbw b Duminy | 17 | 34 | 34 | 2 | 0 | 50.00 |
| 78.5 oh close lbw appeal. Good length ball beat the bat and rapped Broad on the pads. Finally they ask for a review and it looks very close on replay, and he’s given. 242/8 | ||||||||
|
GP Swann | c Smith b Harris | 85 | 139 | 81 | 10 | 2 | 104.93 |
| 103.6 Ah, it’s all over now. Swann attempts a big sweep but picks out deep square leg to give Harris a well-deserved fifth wicket. Swann shakes Harris’s hand, in a gesture of finger-spinning solidarity. 356/10 | ||||||||
|
JM Anderson | c Morkel b Ntini | 29 | 104 | 78 | 4 | 1 | 37.17 |
| 102.1 well, what’s happened here? Anderson miscued an attempted forcing shot off the back foot, and it’s looped to cover. For some reason there is a referral, but the ball carried easily to a diving Morkel. Anderson can go and rest his hand now, but that has been a remarkable partnership. 348/9 | ||||||||

| South Africa 2nd innings | R | M | B | 4s | 6s | SR | ||
|
AG Prince | b Anderson | 0 | 4 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 |
| 0.6 gone! Fullish on off stump, shaping back at Prince, and it catches the inside edge on to off stump. Great start for England 2/1 | ||||||||
|
GC Smith* | b Onions | 12 | 53 | 36 | 1 | 0 | 33.33 |
| 11.2 that is a severely important wicket for England, and once again, it’s that low bounce that does the trick. Onions uses the over-the-wicket line to drag Smith forward, but the ball doesn’t get up, and burrows into his middle-and-off stumps via a thin inside-edge! 34/3 | ||||||||
|
PL Harris | b Anderson | 11 | 26 | 17 | 2 | 0 | 64.70 |
| 6.5 got him! Not sure how because that was angling safely down the leg side, but his leg stump has been knocked back. In fact, it’s clipped the underside of his thighpad, and deflected improbably back into his wicket. 20/2 | ||||||||
|
HM Amla | b Anderson | 100 | 315 | 213 | 10 | 0 | 46.94 |
| 81.5 there’s the shooter! And that will not please Andrew Strauss in the slightest, given that he – in all likelihood – will have to bat before the day is done. There’s no way to combat that, as the off stump is demolished at bootlace height. The hard new ball hits a crack, skids through, and a fine innings is over 266/7 | ||||||||
|
JH Kallis | c Cook b Broad | 4 | 45 | 32 | 0 | 0 | 12.50 |
| 21.3 big moment in this game! Broad digs one in, Kallis rocks back and tries to break the shackles with an expansive pull shot, but it comes off the top edge and flies down to Alastair Cook at deep square-leg, who takes a well judged catch. 46/4 | ||||||||
|
AB de Villiers | c Bell b Broad | 64 | 136 | 101 | 6 | 1 | 63.36 |
| 55.4 and that’s gone! Broad was probing away, trying to contrive something, and a fullish delivery stops on the wicket a touch, and de Villiers drives a fraction in the air, where Bell takes an excellent diving catch at short extra cover. 165/5 | ||||||||
|
JP Duminy | lbw b Anderson | 11 | 33 | 27 | 2 | 0 | 40.74 |
| 63.5 big appeal, given out, and it’s gone to review. Swinging back a fraction into Duminy and strikes him in front, it looks very close. Replays show it clipping the top of the stumps. Duminy thought he could have inside-edged it, but there is no clear evidence to suggest he did. Third umpire rules in favour of England, and Duminy has gone. 191/6 | ||||||||

|
AJ Strauss* | c †Boucher b Morkel | 1 | 5 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 33.33 |
| 1.2 got him! Huge wicket for South Africa and a massive moment in this Test. Morkel from around the wicket, lands one just back of a length, and it leaves Strauss slightly, catching a faint edge on the way through an ecstatic Boucher. 5/1 | ||||||||
|
AN Cook | c Smith b Harris | 12 | 78 | 56 | 1 | 0 | 21.42 |
| 18.2 there’s the breakthrough! Cook tries to get outside off and work the ball to leg, but there’s a bit of turn to take the glove, lob off the pad flap, and into the stretching right hand of Graeme Smith at leg slip! 27/3 | ||||||||
|
JM Anderson | c †Boucher b de Wet | 10 | 28 | 23 | 2 | 0 | 43.47 |
| 8.1 de Wet strikes! A short ball, outside leg stump, seemingly innocuous. But it climbs into the glove as Anderson attempts a leg-glance, and Boucher claims a simple strangle! 16/2 | ||||||||
|
IJL Trott | c de Villiers b de Wet | 69 | 316 | 212 | 7 | 0 | 32.54 |
| 81.4 stunner! Great catch from AB de Villiers, a shortish ball leapt off a length and flew off the shoulder of Trott’s bat to third slip, where de Villiers dived back and to his left, to claim a brilliant one-handed catch. 205/5 | ||||||||
|
KP Pietersen | run out (de Wet) | 81 | 191 | 143 | 11 | 0 | 56.64 |
| 61.5 from de Wet, that is an extraordinary misjudgment from Pietersen! A tap into the covers, a head-down sprint to the other end, and Trott just stands there in bemusement. He never took so much as a step out of his crease! 172/4 | ||||||||

|
MJ Prior† | c †Boucher b de Wet | 0 | 12 | 9 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 |

yes yes, Groot ek het toe nie nodig gehad om jou gisteraand te pla nie, sien jy begin my nou al bietjie slimmer maak.
Thanks vir jou support, Dalien se komper loop nou reg was toe soos jy gese het , die donnerse slaggate op die paaie kan mens mos nie mis nie
331@ SuperBul – Mooi man…. so by the way, ek het toe Delaine se 80Gb Hardeskyf vervang met ‘n splinternuwe 160Gb Hardeskyf… sal die Notebook Maandagoggend Koerier.
Carol. You are English. British is something totally different.
I know it`s confusing, but believe me.
right cricket het begin hoop daar is mense wat daaroor wil chat
Morning all.
See it is another hot day up in Pretoria. Thought it was going to rain up there today? Well that is good news for the crici that the sun is out.
Now Harris must bat like a opener. Going to be tough. I would have sent in Amla and not Harris last night. We need him down the order. So hope he can make some runs this morning. Harris bowled reall superb though.
reall = really
334 – Morning Super, Have you been watching any of the cricket? We let it slip letting Swan get those runs. He did bat well though. Reminded me of JPP and Steyn last year coming in so low down and saving us in Melbourne. Think Swan saved England yesterday. This could turn out into a draw now.
Just a quick hello from me, i’m sitting in the Wimpy at Bela Bela, checking mail and stuff. Been at Klein Kariba splasing in the water since last Sunday.
Regarding the Cricket, we must score 300 runs today to stand a chance to win this test.
Hi Puma no i did not watch any cricket, hope to see some today. I love the way WI is back in cricket they look like a totally new team, fighters are back and they dont just roll over
Puma, it has been hot up here the last few days. The players must surely feel it by now.
Snoek dit klink lekker , ja ons beter n goeie score opsit , Engeland hou van teikens jaag en dit moet n stewige teiken wees anders is ons in die poo.
Jis gister was very very hot and humid here.
More more, wat se julle ouens alles….?
Lieflike dag hierso, see skitter soos diamante.
Net gou my baaisiekel kom afhaal hier by niggie se fisio shop op Swakop.
Sal maar so stadigaan begin trap van more af, bier innie hand, seelangs, op die harde nat sandjies, as die kniegips af is.
Weather looks clear here in Gauteng, does not look like rain today… so we should get a full day’s cricket in…
BonzaiGBS and myself will be in and out the pool continiously, it is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrking hot today!
Hallo Super
Het gistraand na Steve Hofmeyer se konsert gekyk. Hel, maar hy is blou befok. Ek het uit volle bors die Sharks naam probeer hoog hou, maar hier is te veel Bulle hier in die noorde.
Het aan julle RT manne gedink toe hy sy blou bul liedjie sing.
Pietman. Klink aangenaam al is jy in gips.
343
Pietman hoe gaan dit met die knieg?
Jy moet stadig ou maat moenie jouself afskryf nie, ons moet nog lekker kuier.
Lekker koel dag hier in die Karoo.
Voel soos n lekker sonnige wintersdag met koel briesie.Maar staan lank genoeg in die son en jy sal brand.
339 – Super we were stupid to send in Harris last night. I knew he would go out early this morning. A wasted wicket. Stupid, stupid. Should have sent in Amla.
Now hope we can bat well from here on.
Overcast here today.
Morning Snoek, Piet, The-Pill and GBS.
Snoek jy moes sommer vir RT n onderhoud gevoer het met die Bulle se hoofseun. 😆
Pilleman @346
Nee broer, sy wou he ek moet daar in die praktyk kom trap elke dag X2….maar ek kan nie so op een plek sit en ry nie, ek wil move as ek trap…en vorentoe gaan.
Manne bly uit hierdie son, ek is so rooi soos ‘n tamatie van te veel son die week. Gaan suffer vir ‘n paar dae.
343 – Piet, How is your knee doing after your op? Take it easy and let it heal proper boet.
Puma hulle moet laaste kolf enigiets bo 250 gaan nie maklik wees nie.
Okay manne, geniet die krieket, ek loop weer. Gesels weer volgende week.
355 – Super, I think this will be a draw. Unless they bowl us out quick today England could win this. We need to bat smart now.
There goes Smith for 12.
will chat after 2 must go now , cheers vir eers
We could be in trouble here now. Need Kallis, AB and JP to make some big runs.
