said that first time I saw him, only a few players can play across the line and he isn't one of them

They haven't even had drinks to waste 5 mins

Jennings looks ok for me, think he has a future he's just out of form
Westley + Malan not good enough

Can't ever remember watching someone at this level whose "off drives" go past mid on

Graeme Smith was much worse

By:

His off drives went through square leg!!

Can't remember Smith driving from outside off stump, thought he was a bit like Cooky and made them come to him

By:

tomtimtum When: 06 Aug 17 12:20

Will have to look

By:

jucel69 When: 06 Aug 17 12:20

But he was gritty as fcuk and ground runs out

They needed someone like him this series. Awful batting from SA. Whats the highest theyve scored this series?

By:

detraveller When: 06 Aug 17 12:22

I think so. Probably the only time they crossed 300

By:

jucel69 When: 06 Aug 17 12:23

I could make a fortune here or proper do my conkers.
Don't know why I put myself under the pump like this

Cardinal Scott When: 06 Aug 17 12:23

Gave up trying to understand the Draw here.

By:

detraveller When: 06 Aug 17 12:23

No actually 300+ 3 times

By:

detraveller When: 06 Aug 17 12:24

Ithought of bailing out of my draw back at 7 but glad i didn't. Please bring on the pie chuckers now. Need to see sub 5.

By:

feck me David Blunkett gave that not out, via his labrador

Agree about Westley TTT. Shame cos he looks to have a very good temperament. Jennings has had some real snorters this series but is looking fine here.

Not quite so extravagant but have been laying SA at all odds from 4 to 17.5.

I've got some draw at average 6.6. Not sure what to do with it.

By:

East_Coast_Eagle When: 06 Aug 17 12:45

would England look to accelerate after lunch? Think if you said to England pre-series if they would take a 2-1 series win, they would have taken that

I'd be pretty keen to keep hold for now: short of a very ugly England collapse before and after lunch, I think it has to trade a lot lower when the deluge arrives. I've been buying it up solidly from 5s up this morning session. If Jennings has the decency to stay in England won't be racing on and there won't be any urge to declare early tomorrow (and they may not get out on time tomorrow either with the amount of rain due). Day 5 play looks really, really dodgy too.

I'm holding on to mine looking for low 5s down but the brave move is to wait for really low prices. I think the draw could trade under 3 this test still, not impossibly under 2 if the forecast is about right.

I've talked myself into moving another lay or two down, although want to hit a top least one of the most so I can buy again if wicket.
