    @ wallabie.:360 – Howzit Walla, How you doing mate? Hope well.

    Great thought you might not get it, thought it might get lost in the threads.

    Pleased Oz is fighting back and figthing well. They should take this test.

  • 362

    188,12 to go Kallis..

  • 363

    @ Winston:361 – Winnie, I am hoping too. This time hope Kallis gets the double finally.

  • 364

    @ Puma:362 – typo 🙄 meant fighting.

  • 365

    I’m on the edge of my seat hoping that he does it Puma..

  • 366

    11 to go and Kallis equals his highest score of 189.

  • 367

    Career best for Kallis of 190,10 to go..

  • 368

    191,9 to go..

  • 369

    193,7 to go.. Come on?

  • 370

    197,just 3 to go. Come on!!

  • 371

    Tense now, only 3 runs for Kallis to get his double.

  • 372

    @ Winston:371 – snap…lol.

  • 373

    My nerves are shattered,I watched him make his debut at Kingsmead and have watched almost all of his tests on tv,please do it. I reckon if he gets it it will become a regular occurence for him.

  • 374

    @ Winston:366 – Me too Winnie, this is tense right now.

  • 375

    He Did it.:-) 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 201 not out,get involved!

  • 376

    What a legend.. We will losing the equivalent of 3 players when he retires.. And he got it off 270 balls.

  • 377

    WELL DONE KALLIS, FINALLY THE DOUBLE. WELL DESERVED.

    Now we must declare.

  • 378

    @ Winston:377 – Winnie, You very right there, what a legend Kallis is. Still think he has a few years if he keeps batting like that.

  • 379

    11650 runs and 267 wickets. Greatest all rounder of all time. What has made him better is how much faster he bats these days.

  • 380

    Good that Ab got out because now we declared. Now lets hope that Morkel and Steyn bowl like lightning..

  • 381

    @ Winston:381 – Agree Winne, we had to declare and that sort of forced it. Now hope we take some quick wickets before the rain comes.

  • 382

    We just need 10 wickets now. Reckon we need 100 overs to bowl them out,they will bat much better in this innings.

  • 383

    @ Winston:380 – Winnie, Proud of Kallis being the greatest all rounder ever. What a legend.

  • 384

    Hope we get a wicket or two before close today.

  • 385

    Hello, no doubt the sun is shining on you all, meanwhile 4man and I are preparing to dig our way out of our homes!!
    It looks like a Christmas Card here……!!

  • 386

    @ Blue Bird:
    386 – Hello BB,

    Well don’t envy you or 4man having to dig yourselves out of your homes..hehehe. Sounds like far to much hard work.

    Here it is overcast now but very warm and humid.

  • 387

    Don’t look like we are going to take a wicket either before close. Forecast for rain tomorrow in Pretoria so was hoping we could get a wicket or two.

    With that I am out. Going to watch a bit of cricket and the SA Open here in Durbs.

  • 388

    We are not taking our chances which is a problem.

  • 389

    Winnie, FINALLY A BREAK THROUGH……HEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAA

    Shewag gone, bowled Harris c Smith.

    Now need another one before close. 😀

  • 390

    Harris to Sehwag, OUT, 83.6 kph, Sehwag has thrown it away. You sensed he was going to go after Harris at some point. This was was asking to be hit. Tossed up nice and wide outside off, Sehwag danced down, but could not get to the line of the ball. Hence, he ended up scooping instead of lofting cleanly. Smith runs back and to the left from widish mid off to take a well-judged catch. Big wicket.
    V Sehwag c Smith b Harris 63 (141m 79b 9×4 1×6) SR: 79.74
