By:
Holding reckons anything under 325, there is hope for SA
|
|
By:
lazy effort from Amla, didn't want to dive to save the 4 runs
|
|
By:
DROPPED CHANCE
|
|
By:
Im going to go against the trend, I reckon South Africa are a sneaky chance of winning this now
|
|
By:
they have 2 days to chase this down. Time not the issue
|
|
By:
Highest chase here is 294
|
|
By:
he's a good pich hitter is our Moeen
|
|
By:
pinch ffs
|
|
By:
I'm never sure of these run-chase stats when there is actually plenty of time left. Are there any high chases here that ended in a draw with plenty of wickets in hand that might have been a successful chase if there had been more time?
|
|
By:
Nodded off. What happened to the monsoon?
|
|
By:
Should be hammering down now! (supposedly)
|
|
By:
Draw bakers and waiting layers being done over by the radar AGAIN.

|
|
By:
Rain moved to the north, but should arrive after stumps tonight...
 |
|
By:
SA could be 3 down tonight.
Can't believe it's not raining.  |
|
By:
SA odds holding up unfortunately. In that awkward zone where I fully expect England to win but will probably be uncomfortable with the odds at some stage.
|
|
By:
In fact uncomfortable now but if SA go down to around four or five then will be in a testing the balls situation which I could do without.
|
|
By:
You could just take the dog for a walk Charlie. A one-day walk, obviously..
|
|
By:
At last.
|
|
By:
Finally rain!
|
|
By:
Well Charlie's dog won't want to go out in this rain.
|
|
By:
 |
|
By:
I'm seriously tempted to lay SA again. I don't believe they can win from here but as ever it's how much grief I can stand.
|
|
By:
I'll be very surprised if the Saffers beat their 1st innings score when they bat again - no chance of winning
|
|
By:
play abandoned for the day and for monday & tuesday
match drawn..well done draw backers Eng win series 2-1 |
|
By:
Can anyone give me any hope for my Mega Comedy Draw Green..Is It Worthless?
|
|
By:
Wish I could help CS but don't see how it is useful. I'm also more green on draw than England. Two days to go and probably need less than one for a result.

T20 will rescue you CS!

By:
I too have large draw green. We needed the rain to come at 3ish at the latest.
Clear tomorrow and tuesday's forecast is changing all the time. May see 5s on the draw but wouldn't count on it. |
|
By:
Backed some at 2.6 not a lot though.
|
|
By:
Wrong thread Muppet.

The game will be over tomorrow, Monday. No rain forecast tomorrow and with 22 wickets having fallen in the last 2 days and today finished around 12 overs early, there is little chance of it not finishing tomorrow.

|
|
By:
OT has history of wet outfields disrupting play. No idea if they've addressed this issue.
I think England will win but if SA get to 50-1,(Big if!!) draw will be 5s or less given Tuesday's forecast. |
|
By:
Could well be a delayed start tomorrow morning - Draw could tank on that alone.
|
|
By:
No delay tomorrow morning with possibly a small amount of rain around 4pm
|
|
By:
Just looked the latest forecast up
