The 4Th and last 5-day Test between the SA Proteas and England takes place at Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg from 14 January to 18 January 2010. The Proteas are one down in the series, so it is essential for them to win this Test to square the series and salvage some SA pride. This is the match thread for discussion of the game.

England 1st innings | R | M | B | 4s | 6s | SR | ||
AJ Strauss* | c Amla b Steyn | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 | |
0.1 gone! What an incredible start! A back-of-a-length delivery on the pads, Strauss played with an angled bat to deflect the ball into the leg-side, but Hashim Amla, under the lid at backward short leg, swooped superbly with his right hand, and clung onto a blinder! 0/1 | ||||||||
AN Cook | lbw b Morkel | 21 | 49 | 31 | 2 | 0 | 67.74 | |
9.4 a review coming up, as Cook is given out lbw … it could be marginal … He took a while to ponder the option, but it seemed to the naked eye to be quite high, and potentially outside leg… this is absolutely crucial … and there are so many permutations. No inside-edge, but surely that was a no-ball! Perhaps there is a fraction of leather behind the line … either way, it’s been given! 39/4 | ||||||||
IJL Trott | lbw b Morkel | 5 | 8 | 8 | 1 | 0 | 62.50 | |
1.6 full length, loose on-drive, that’s plumb! The end of a bewildering innings from Trott, who swished at anything that moved, and eventually played across the line to a full-length delivery 7/2 | ||||||||
KP Pietersen | c Parnell b Morkel | 7 | 26 | 16 | 1 | 0 | 43.75 | |
7.5 good grief, another one bites the dust, and it’s the debutant Wayne Parnell at mid-on! Back of a length, Pietersen climbs into a full-blooded pull, but he doesn’t time it properly and Parnell is on hand to intercept. 32/3 | ||||||||
PD Collingwood | c Duminy b McLaren | 47 | 104 | 61 | 5 | 2 | 77.04 | |
30.3 squared up, a leading edge, and that’s caught at point! A massive breakthrough and that is McLaren’s first in Tests. Smith’s hunch has paid off, just enough nibble off the deck to turn a regulation nurdle off the pads into a muffed false shot, and Duminy leans forward to collect a lobbed opportunity! 115/5 | ||||||||
IR Bell | b Steyn | 35 | 125 | 86 | 6 | 0 | 40.69 | |
37.4 castled! And that is exceptional bowling. Steyn has been swinging everything away, and this one zips back off the deck, through the gate, and into the stumps! High quality fast bowling, and there’s very little that Bell could have done about that 133/6 | ||||||||
MJ Prior† | c †Boucher b Steyn | 14 | 45 | 25 | 2 | 0 | 56.00 | |
39.1 England collapsing here! Prior gone! Short ball, Prior tries to pull it away but it catches the gloves and goes slowly though to Boucher. Easy catch and South Africa are all over England here. “So much for your quiet hour,” says Miller. 136/7 | ||||||||
SCJ Broad | c Morkel b Kallis | 13 | 18 | 13 | 2 | 0 | 100.00 | |
40.5 gone this time! One shot too many perhaps. Back of a length, straight into Broad and he flaps it, needlessly really, in the air to mid off. Hit, hope and fail. 148/8 | ||||||||
GP Swann | c †Boucher b Steyn | 27 | 43 | 27 | 3 | 1 | 100.00 | |
47.5 gets him this time though. Outside off stump, Swann flays at it and it comes off an inside edge through to a diving Boucher. 180/10 | ||||||||
RJ Sidebottom | c †Boucher b Steyn | 0 | 12 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 | |
43.2 gone! Steyn gets another! All very easy really, outside off, Sidebottom comes forward and nicks it behind to Boucher. South Africa rampant here! 155/9 | ||||||||
JM Anderson | not out | 6 | 22 | 13 | 0 | 0 | 46.15 | |

A back-of-a-length delivery on the pads, Strauss played with an angled bat to deflect the ball into the leg-side, but Hashim Amla, under the lid at backward short leg, swooped superbly with his right hand, and clung onto a blinder! 0/137.4 to Bell, castled! And that is exceptional bowling. Steyn has been swinging everything away, and this one zips back off the deck, through the gate, and into the stumps! High quality fast bowling, and there’s very little that Bell could have done about that 133/639.1 to Prior, England collapsing here! Prior gone!

47.5 to Swann, gets him this time though. Outside off stump, Swann flays at it and it comes off an inside edge through to a diving Boucher. 180/10 |

GC Smith* | c Strauss b Sidebottom | 105 | 252 | 187 | 16 | 0 | 56.14 | |
57.2 edged and gone! A good length delivery that seams, rather than swings, and Strauss at first slip gobbles the edge in his midriff 201/2 | ||||||||
AG Prince | c Swann b Broad | 19 | 71 | 48 | 3 | 0 | 39.58 | |
16.3 that one is definitely out! Good delivery climbing outside off, Prince propped forward, found a thick edge, straight into Swann’s midriff at second slip 36/1 | ||||||||
HM Amla | c †Prior b Broad | 75 | 216 | 138 | 8 | 0 | 54.34 | |
64.6 the swing does the trick! Exceptional one-handed catch from Prior, diving in front of first slip, as Amla leans into a drive, but the ball ghosts away late, snicks the edge and England have their incision! 217/3 | ||||||||
JH Kallis | c Anderson b Sidebottom | 7 | 41 | 24 | 0 | 0 | 29.16 | |
65.6 wow, now we have got a game on here! Well-directed bouncer from Sidebottom, Kallis is caught completely unawares and muffs a bail-out pull. Anderson in the gully reacts like lightning, hurtles forward, scoops with one hand, and suddenly South Africa have lost two in two overs! 217/4 | ||||||||
AB de Villiers | c Collingwood b Broad | 58 | 165 | 119 | 5 | 0 | 48.73 | |
102.4 got him this time! Slightly shorter, de Villiers leans into a whippy pull, but his shot hasn’t got the power or the timing to beat wide mid-on. And that’s a timely wicket for England 355/6 | ||||||||
JP Duminy | c Collingwood b Swann | 7 | 31 | 20 | 1 | 0 | 35.00 | |
73.1 absolutely incredible! Swann has struck with his first ball yet again, and his bunny, Duminy, can only shake his head in disbelief! A perfect line and length, tossed up outside off, sharp spin and extra bounce, and Collingwood snaffles the edge 235/5 | ||||||||
MV Boucher† | c Trott b Swann | 95 | 196 | 118 | 9 | 0 | 80.50 | |
117.1 oh that is unlucky for Boucher, so close to a hundred, he’s top edged a sweep down to a tumbling Trott at deep square. Fantastic innings from a fantastic cricketer. 419/7 | ||||||||

AJ Strauss* | lbw b Parnell | 22 | 58 | 45 | 3 | 0 | 48.88 | |
12.3 Review: much fuller ball, and this nips off the seam and thuds into Strauss’ pads. Massive appeal for lbw. Was there an inside edge? He was given out by Tony Hill… and after some deliberation that is given out and that’s Wayne Parnell’s first wicket in Test cricket 48/3 | ||||||||
AN Cook | c Smith b Morkel | 1 | 14 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 16.66 | |
3.4 Morkel strikes! South Africa breakthrough early! On the off stump channel, moving away with the angle, a touch of extra bounce and it finds the outside edge of Cook’s defensive shot and flies through to Smith at slip who gobbles it up gleefully 6/1 | ||||||||
IJL Trott | c de Villiers b Steyn | 8 | 15 | 9 | 2 | 0 | 88.88 | |
6.1 Gone! Got him! You always felt Steyn could be lethal against the right handers, Trott had not settled but what could he do with this. Full, snaking away at the last moment, flies off the outside edge from a defensive shot to third slip 21/2 | ||||||||
KP Pietersen | c †Boucher b Parnell | 12 | 91 | 42 | 2 | 0 | 28.57 | |
22.4 there’s the breakthrough! A push across Pietersen’s bows, a wild swish to a ball that keeps going towards the slips, and a faint nick through to Boucher! 84/4 | ||||||||
PD Collingwood | c Morkel b Duminy | 71 | 139 | 88 | 12 | 1 | 80.68 | |
39.1 got him straight away! Horrid delivery, dragged down, Collingwood tried to hoik it out the Wanderers but didn’t quite time it and found Morkel at deep square 154/9 | ||||||||
IR Bell | c Kallis b Morkel | 5 | 35 | 17 | 1 | 0 | 29.41 | |
29.3 this time he’s gone. Another fine delivery from Morkel. Superb line, excellent bounce, a regulation edge at head height to second slip 103/5 | ||||||||
MJ Prior† | c Smith b Morkel | 0 | 3 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 | |
29.5 well, that was even briefer than anyone could have imagined! A short ball outside off, a loose swish, a steepling top-edge, and Smith back-pedals to cling onto the catch 103/6 | ||||||||
SCJ Broad | c †Boucher b Morkel | 1 | 11 | 9 | 0 | 0 | 11.11 | |
31.3 Review. Broad given not out to one that arrowed down the leg side. Instant review and looks like it clipped the glove. There was a big, dare I say it, sound Even Harper could get this right, surely. Yes, he’s gone. Broad hangs around for a while and drags himself off. Wheels are off for England now. 104/7 | ||||||||
GP Swann | c de Villiers b Steyn | 20 | 21 | 17 | 3 | 0 | 117.64 | |
35.5 gone this time! Full and swinging, Swann aims to block but the late away swing finds the edge and it goes straight through to De Villiers at slip. Almost all over now! 134/8 | ||||||||
RJ Sidebottom | b Duminy | 15 | 37 | 17 | 2 | 0 | 88.23 | |
42.5 Gone, got him! South Africa win the Test and level the series! Sidebottom tried to heave this through the leg side but misses and it crashes into the stumps. South Africa win by an innings and 74 runs. 169/10 | ||||||||

297 – Snoek, agree with you there.
Okay back after the lunch break.
Ja, ek sien Ash is #16…weet nie van my op #7 nie, ek is bietjie lig innie gat vir daai posisie.
Hashim op 50, mooi!
Hoop nie hy choke weer op 95 nie….
298 @ Pieta – Flok Pieta, ek en jy weet meer van Parys as Blouste wat daar woon….. hehehe
Tjorts Puma & Snoek
gbs
Asseblief, ek bly nie hier nie !!! Dankie tog !!!
Werk op die oomblik hier, amper klaar.
@304 GBS
Ek ken my land broer, elke pompjoggie en elke barman op elke dorp, ek is n Saffa nomad en ek koekeloer elke plek in SA as ek daar is…..my ma se mos, jy kan nie by n plek stop nie of almal wil saam met Pietman kitaar speel en nonsens praat 🙂
Maar ek laaik dit, dis MY mense!
307@ Pieta – Ek ken ook meeste plekke… netnie die Weskus en die Kalahari nie…..
@ 306 Blouste
Parys is niks fout mee nie.
As jy op sulke kuk plekke soos ek al gewoon het, sal jy veel eerder daar wil wees….hel, dink net, jy kon op Clifton vasgekluister gewees het tussen glasige-oog anorexic vrouens met vet honne aan halsbande en moffie boyfriends aan hulle sy wat die strand besoedel…nee man, Parys is heel ok, ek sal enige tyd rustig daar woon as op party ander plekke.
@308 Weskus en Kalahari is maklik, daar woon nie baie mense nie, en die afstande is lank en petrolpompe en hotelle ver van mekaar…as jy eenmaal petrol getap het daar, groet hulle jou volgende jaar as n ou bekende!
pietman #09
😆
Sure, daar’s kakker plekke maar ek is nou al mooi gatvol vir die dorpie.
Same old same old I presume.
@311 Blouste
Ek dink jy sal beter aard daar in Superbul se kontrei (Hoedspruit), klink my jy is n bosveldklong en lief vir die veld en die wild.
Ek is maar katvoet vir daai wereld, ek en mambas en krokkodille is nie pelle nie, ou Superbul dink weer dis alledaags om tussen daai dierasies te beweeg.
Jy moet hom bietjie vra van hom en die swart mamba, op die telefoonpaal, ek gril my vrek vir daai storie!
Ek laaik ook nie van withaaie nie, nie na my laaste ervaring by Dyerseiland op Kleinbaai nie….ek koop liewer vis van nou af, maar deaar vang ek nie weer geelbek nie….donnerse ding se oge is so groot soos pierangs toe hy my kom loer, en ek sit op n rubber duck en my broer lag sy gat af vir my benoudgeit….
Nee ou pel, dan bly ek liewer veilig en rustig in Parys, thank you very much!
Yes Pietman. Hoe hang hulle?
Klink my jy ma banggat virrie see! Of net versigtug? 😆
Wil nie te gou praat, maar die krieket lyk goed. Vir n slag…
@ pietman
Nou praat jy…
Het juis so vakansie huisie daar so 25km vanaf superBul.
Lag my gat af oor jou rubberboot storie, kan dink dis nogals ‘n situasie.
Pille
Ja jong, ek raak bang vir SA, oppad terug soontoe nou.
Ek sal maar die haaie deur die verkyker beloer van nou af, hy bly op sy plek en ek in myne.
As hy my wil kom hap moet hy my binne in Gansbaai Hotel se bar kom haal, maar ek gaan my nie laat vang soos daai ou laasweek in Kalkbaai nie…
Ek besef nou eers hoeveel kanse ek gevat het in my jong dae, om tussen daai goete vir kreef te duik.
Ek is klaar met dit.
Pietman.
Ja kyk, moenie met die see f@k nie. Jy raak net hans dan klap hy jou.
@315
Vra Superbul van die mamba op die paal, ek grap nie.
Hy het laasjaar daar by my op Franskraal kom vakansie hou, toe vertel hy my die storie…
Hy is vreesloos, ou Superbul, die locals daar op my dorp noem hom ‘Daai Dik Boer’!
n Zimbo wat gehap is deur ou Gotcha. Seker maar n zenouvoubiek haai daai.
So bietjie rugby nuus, hier op CT:
Former Springbok flyhalf Derick Hougaard kicked 20 points to overshadow England kingpin Jonny Wilkinson in the Amlin Challenge Cup Thursday night.
Hougaard was instrumental in Saracens’ 28-9 win over Toulon and kept his side’s hopes alive in the competition while dealing a massive blow to Toulon in the process.
The former Bulls ‘liefling’, kicked six penalty goals and a conversion of another South African’s try — Justin Melck — to end up with 20 points as his forward pack dominated for large parts of the game.
Saracens were helped that at one point Toulon were playing with 13 men after their two flankers were sent to the sin bin for slowing the ball down, leaving their captain Joe van Niekerk as their only loose forward on the field.
England coach Martin Johnson was at the game to keep an eye on Wilkinson, but the 2003 World Cup-winner was largely reduced to a defensive role as Saracens dominated every aspect of play.
Van Niekerk also had a night to forget, as Toulon’s only scoring opportunity fell through his hands as Wilkinson chipped and gathered, to pass to an open Van Niekerk, who knocked the ball on in open space.
Hougaard didn’t, for once, score with his trademark drop goal — that honour went to his scrumhalf partner Justin Marshall, who slotted a close-range drop in the fifth minute.
Scorers: Saracens: Try: Melck. Conversion: Hougaard. Penalty goals: Hougaard 6. Dropgoal: Marshall (5).
Toulon: Penalty goals: Wilkinson 2. Drop goal: Wilkinson.
Van supersport gekry
Ahh, feel quite nostalgic, this is just like the old days—-I could not understand a word then!!
At work….realy should go!
Have a good day all, till later…
Pietman
How well do you know Carnarvon?
@ Scrummie
CAO or Scotland, hehehehe!
You know I know Carnarvon, the town between Loxton and Van Wyksvlei, very well….hell, it even delivered a Springbok rugby player, Vlokkie Cilliers.
And they have an annual rugby day called the Dave Stewart Rugby Day, I played there many times, on that day, against Villagers.
Dave Stewart (later shareholder in Logan Sports, CT) was die depot manager at Caltex there, Christian Stewart’s uncle.
(Why do you ask, btw, I have a suspicion you and I spoke about this about three years or so ago, on Voldy, or do I have you confused with Tighthead.
Your wife from CAO, not so?)
Still only one wicket gone since I went out. Good we doing well so far. Now need to really kick on.
Halloooooo almal, Smith nou op 92, hoop hy maak weer 100 en sommer ou Amlatjie ook!!!!!
So stil stil maak hy sy merkie hoor
323: Pietman, nou dat jy terug Kaap toe trek, en ‘jy weet wie’ nie meer vir die WP/Stormers speel nie, gaan jy nog steeds die Kampioenspan in SA ondersteun ?
SCores are level hehehehe and only the loss of one wicket, which indirectly should not have happened, do not know why they insist on using Prince as an opener, should bat at 5 or 6, he is brilliant when he bats later, they are putting him in an unfair postion
#326 Interessante vragie daai, het self al gewonder, alhoewel ek sal verstaan want dit is altemit in sy bloed…
327 – Tripps, Agree. Ash should bat at 5 or 7. Wasting his wicket making him open. If Amla can open.
How is the weather there. So far looks okay at Wanderers but read that it is rain now in the North of Joburg. So hope it stays away from Wanderers.
329 – sorry meant 5 or 6.
