Eng won toss and bat
|

By:
SAF attack looking pretty poor
|
|
By:
Only 4 bowlers, one of them pretty tosh
|

Yes that's for sure, but when a top bowler is missing, good sides will find someone else or someone else turn up and does well. England with the toss won and batting are very very short at 1.9. Expect England to lose a couple of early wickets and then will be the time to back England.

Going to have to be a very poor performance from England to lose this game

Rain possible on Monday, Tuesday, although forecasts do change. Yes England to bat forever, well that's unlikely unless Cook takes root at the crease. England have quite a few might/might not batsmen, with most being shot makers. With South Africa having to win, they would chase anything in the final innings and may get the run or likely to be bowled out. Then of course there's our wonderful weather so yes it will need a very poor England performance, but that's what usually happens after a win.

SAF will struggle to take 20 wickets with a 2 man attack

engerland to win or draw is free money isnt it
|
|
By:
yes
|
|
By:
Yes again for sure, but anything can happen in sport, so nothing is ever free money, it just looks free money.

Have to be careful, likely to be a bit in the pitch this morning, watching for now

Like the England batsmen, I will be waiting till Morkel/Rabada are out of the attack before I launch my assault

big vern looking a big hole to fill

By:
Both batsmen have done well so far.

jennings out cheaply again, can't have many more left surely
|
|
By:
Same method again, just hang it out there ....
 |

You wouldn't think so, he's looked mainly out of his depth, abeit against a very good bowling attack. He's was missed early today and a lot of the 46 he got at the Oval were from inside edges and shots that were inaudacious.
|
|
By:
he had more than a couple whistle past his outside edge, only a matter of time
|

Well he shouldn't be picked for the Ashes series, but he'll probably be kept for the Windies series, where he may get some easier runs and then of course he'll go to Australia, but already in my mind, he's just not good enough.
|
|
By:
Easier runs, i fear not.
|
|
By:
there will be easier runs on offer, whether he gets them or not is a completely different matter
|
|
By:
Well their attack is nowhere near as good as this one.

jennings was picked on his form at durham when they were in div 1
|
|
By:
SAF have a 70mph pieman bowling after 20 overs, they're in big big trouble!
|
|
By:
yes, that was last season, when he did well, but he's currently playing against very average bowlers, when he plays, the same happened with Duckett, loads of runs in Div 2, few runs when he went into Test Cricket. Batsmen are quickly worked out in Test Cricket unfortunately, he scored a debut ton in India and has since scored 164 in his last 10 Test Match innings. Duckett has scored 110 runs in 7 innings at Test match level.
