389 @ Puma:meant = Khawaja.
If they come out to bat later with cloud over the Wanderers think Tahir and Philander will be a menace. Batting will be difficult.
390 @ grootblousmile:That is if they come out to bat.
How bad is the weather up there? How long will it rain for you think? See it is forecast for rain the whole day. Then again these forecasts are wrong on many occasion.
392 @ Puma:
Not raining here in the East, but the light or lack thereof is terrible.
Looks as if it is clearing a bit… but remember, I’m about 50km away
Saw earlier that they were working with the Super-sopper to suck up all the moisture they can… who knows, our weather is so unpredictable and weathermen do not exactly have perfect science to work with.
@ grootblousmile:
If they are working with the Super-Sopper then it looks like they are preparing for them to come out at some stage.
396 @ Puma:
Yip… if only the rain would stay away, I guess with the assistance of the Stadium lights, which they are allowed to uses in this Series… we could have some game time
Apparently the covers are off…
morning humans and hooligans
hope the rain have
1. spiced up the wicket a bit and
2. that the aussies will take more chances now that we have lost about 2 hours already this morning and may lose more as the day progresses!
399 @ Ashley:
Hello Asbak
Het jy toe jou fonetjie gekry?
Live pictures suggest they are getting ready to play
They will take an early Lunch, then decide
Looks like it is clearing up there.
They gonna take a early lunch and probably come out after.
402@ grootblousmile:Snap..lol.
Seems that there might be a window of about 3 hours of play…
3 Hours is long enough to get 7 wickets… could well be..
Is 3 hours long enough to get 168 runs?
399@ Ashley:Howzit Ash,
Yeah I am with you on that.
gbs @ 400
nee wat broetsie
sal maar my sak moet skud!!
sal seker maar eers ñ goedkoper foon moet kry …. tensy daar nou mense hier aanlyn is wat geld het wat hulle nie weet wat om mee te maak nie, lol
407 @ Ashley:
Ek ken nie sulke mense nie…
405@ grootblousmile:3 hours is long enough to get 168 runs if they come out and play positive which they will need too. By playing like that we can also take wickets.
So for now its anyones game.
409 @ Puma:
Essentially it’s like a ODI Innings… enough time if the batting is positive.
I feel that if the Aussies lose Ponting & Hussey, then they might play just to make a stand…
Looks like play will commence at 13:00
Is G Smith out yet?
412 @ Loosehead:
Out of what?
Play has just resumed, with a maiden over from Dale Steyn
gbs @ 408
lol, ek ook nie!!
413@ grootblousmile:
For a low score.
I know nothing about cricket.
412@ Loosehead:huh? ..lol
410 @ grootblousmile:If they lose a quick wicket now they will just go for it, well I think they will.
Good bowling by Steyn in the first over of the day. Need wickets though.
415 @ Loosehead:
Much like your rugby knowledge…. hehehe
You opened yourself up for that one!
Aussies not in any hurry… yet
Need to make the Aussies play at every ball!
