Smith wins the toss and opts to bat
Proteas team remains unchanged, Bairstow comes in fot Pietersen and Finn for Bresnan for the England team.
Temp: 19°C | Partly Cloudy
Smith to face first ball
Rain at the the Oval, a mere 8 km away from Lords
Alviro Pieterson looking his usual skittish self, a number of missed edges, not pulling the bat out of the way in time, and a couple of pads. One wonders how he ever makes it. Lets hope he can settle down and get his eye in.
Smith gone, nicked
Smith out for 14 caught Prior off Andersons bowling. SA 22/1
Alviro Pieterson looking decidedly uncomfortable – just survived an LBW appeal – close
England left with one referral, nice. Now they will be more careful
Wicket – Pieterson gone, gloved to Prior off Finn. Had to happen, he never looked happy
Another wicket. Amla – bowled Finn
Proteas in a spot of bother here.
Rain just starting to get a bit heavier now, and an appeal to boot. Prior thinks he’s got Kallis
Definitely touched Kallis bat, but is his hand off the bat?
Given out. Kallis gone for 3. Caught Prior. Bowled Finn. Kallis very unhappy with that decision. Proteas in all sorts of trouble now!!!
Finn to Kallis, OUT, 140.4 kph, We have another review for a catch down the leg side. Was the hand even on the bat? This is a tight call. Is there clear evidence it actually hit the glove? There’s a noise for sure. The ball has brushed the bottom hand but it is off the bat by the looks of these replays. Enough doubt for a not-out by the looks of it, but Rod Tucker having a long look. Oh, my goodness, he’s given him! This will be controversial. That hand did not look as though it was on the bat and, remember, it was given not out on the field. Had to be conclusive evidence
On Cricinfo they said-
Before anyone says, that isn’t a failure of the DRS but a failure of the umpiring
Go ….. Chokers !
“What is the point of using technology if you still can’t give the right decision. Absolutely shocking decision,” says Richard from South Africa. “One of the worst I have seen.”
One thing we cant do is change the decision , that is done. What we can do is get “de bliksem in” and bowl seven hells out of them, destroy them for another less than 80 score. OK i feel better now, its out of my system.
Well, that was quite some session of Test cricket. Swing, seam, a few runs, four wickets and a whole heap of controversy. Hey, at least we all have something else to talk about now
Tweet from Neil Manthorp @NeilManthorp
Absolutely throwing it down here at Lord’s! Forecast was for “20% chance of light showers”. Monsson rain at the moment.
Jeez I go out for a few hours and come back to see we in all sorts of trouble here in the crici.
Damn hope we can get outselves out of this.
22 @ Just For Kicks:
Well let it rain. Seems things are not going our way there.
24 @ PumaSpringbokJan:Too right, unfortunately rain has stopped and play is on again. Good news is the we haven’t lost another wicket…..yet!
AB and Rudolph need to stand tall now. Need them to bat and bat like their lives depend on it.. lol.
Plenty swing there now too. Looks tough for batting must say.
25 @ Just For Kicks:
Yip just turned the tv on now. See we back batting.
Could be a wicket, AB LBW being reviewed by England. This could be trouble for Proteas
Not out, phew!…..and thats their last review used up. Good
OK no more referrals ENgland and Strauss, fark i hope you choke on your chewing gum :LOL:
