Clarke OUTTTTTTTTT !
Bowled….
Heeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaa
420
no we dont.
let them chase the ball.
we only need a draw!!
Philander strikes!
Now for Ponting & Hussey…..
422 @ Ashley:
THAT is a WP attitude…..
Hahaha
philanderrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
you beaut!!
425@ Ashley:Damn missed it. Had to take a call.
Well done Philander. Now need Ponting.
gbs @ 424
😀 jaaaaaaaaaaa boet!!
Very tight bowling by Philander & Dale Steyn…..
Jeeez, Hussey is nervous, now is the time to strike! He is always a slow starter.
Ponting determined to leave everything not aimed at exactly the wickets… seems he wants the draw and only wants to score off loose ball
Only 9 runs in 30 minutes, 1 wicket
Wickettttttttttt!
Ponting GONE!
Hussey & Haddin in now, the only 2 to really threaten a possible reach of the winning total.
Come on, get them!
After these 2 it’s a big fat tail…
Drinks break…
Need to take Hussey straight after drinks.
138 needed for an Aussie win
Fark, Hussey & Haddin in too long now….
gbs @ 435
gbs @ 435
doen d reëndans!!
436 @ Ashley:
Ek dans nie, en ek sing nie… nie eers in die stort nie!
Mag dalk net die wolke heeltemal wegjaag!
Ciao a tutti. I see the “slut” is up to no good as usual….
438 @ The_Young_Turk:
Ciao…
Game back in the balance again, Aussie need 117 for a win
Weather getting progressively better and better
Tahir introduced… will spin work?
I think it will be either a saffa win or a draw….
Aussie 200 / 5
They need just 110
Hmmmm…
What you think about that, Smiles?
445 @ The_Young_Turk:
Sdly, i don’t think they are Husseys….
Aussie batsmen too set now… need a freegin wicket!
Aussies suddenly need only 98 for a win.
Weather looking far too good, I’m afraid.
Come on, bring Philander back…
