@ cane:you’re right there, got me on the edge of my seat
Wat ‘n vangskoot !
Sal ‘n veldwerker agter die paaltjiewagter sit, enige chip en dit is ‘n vier.
Wicket… how important is that!
Just the man you want coming in in this situation. NM should do this for the Black Caps
We needed two Steyn’s… maybe just maybe…
Dot ball… phweeew!
At least we are going down fighting
Need 2 more dot balls…
Nog 4 balletjies, kom Proteas, dit is nou of nooit !
Dot ball yet again… goodie!
eish, this is good stuff from Steyn…..if only……
7 off three…
keep him on strike…
Come on, we want another Dot!
Steyn, Steyn, Steyn

I reckon they gave that last over to the wrong Morkel.

Faf, great catch!

Great catch, 4 off the last ball, and, guess who, on strike!!!!
3 Needed off the last ball.

Fark, now Steyn needs to bowl the ball of his career!
Al die veldwerkers op die grens, keer die grenshou.
Does Taylor go for 2 runs, or the 4?
Can this be any……………………….
