How about travelling to the West Indies, South Africa (twice), New Zealand, Australia (three times), Sri Lanka (twice), India to watch a total of over 30 5 day tests?

Think you should join me on my next tour Flash H, you will find it a lot more enjoyable than you would think, unless of course you are too much brain alive and exciting to enjoy it lol :)o

So Flash what you are saying is 5 day cricket is as dull and boring as the Greek national football team...<

Dale Steyn to be the top SA bowler and Tom Clary to win the 200 metre backstroke tonite....

just as well because the rest of the world will end up paying for their cricket kit etc.

LOL...@ CNC

eng won toss and chose to field.very strange decision.i guess its a defensive ploy by the poms and they are showing weakness by not taking bull by horns and making the running to try and win test.if we bat the whole day then eng will be in big big trouble and they might hv to look at weather to bail them out.

Oh dear, things not going England's way at the start (td)

why did they leave out swann?b4 series started the english media were hailing him as best bowler in world and he would be difference between the sides.i just dont understand the logic behind this decision by england selectors.

Swann has trouble with his elbow Winzip but I don't think that is the reason, I think that they believed conditions would be suited to swing and movement and that would be the way to get SA out twice. Everyone saying a bit of a dangerous call, the decision to bat first also. Don't think it was defensive, more aggressive if anything which is unusual for Strauss and not sure it was the right time to do it. That dreadful mix-up though won't harm his cause!

well done alviro pietersen on your century.all in all it looks like a good day for proteas,

looking this pitch, especially with the new ball...philander gonna be very very difficult
