600+? Haha there's no need for that! If they bat that long, they'll bat themselves out of the game and it'll be a draw. They need some good captaincy and an early declaration to give themselves a good chance to bowl Australia out considering rain looming on that last day. I'm sure Aus can't even chase 400+ in the 4th innings. The highest ever successful fourth innings run chase was around 420 iirc. SA should make 450 and declare.Mate, change that to leading by 369 runs. Australia's feeling it now... SA needa make 600+ and declare. Then we can entertain ourselves looking at the facial expressions of Mitchell Johnson and Michael Clarke.
given Australia's feeble batting and SA strong bowling with a deteriorating pitch, never gonna happen
I agree. He isn't consistent...... Clarke (and the most of his team ) are terrible at batting. They early get above 40 runs. Knowing the calibre of India and south Africa's bowling and batting, I think Australia will struggle against both of them.Such is the reason why Steyn is my favourite bowler and de Villiers is up there for one of my favourite batsmen.
Clarke has been struggling with form recently, especially as he has picked up the habit of being bowled frequently. He can certainly do a lot better than he is now though and I am not really even a Clarke fan (that is me being nice about him actually), but I acknowledge his potential.
Ahahhhaaahahahaa. You serious mate? India is shockingly bad. Recently they got destroyed by New Zeland in both tests and ODI's. They have lost alot of tests, in fact i think they have lost every series except for when they beat the Aussies in India. India's bowling is terrible and the only notable batsman is Kohli who plays well in and outside the subcontinent. Even Pakistan who rarely play cricket these days defeated India in India with ease. I still dont know how they are number 3 or something in both formats. India are overrated and never go full retard again lol
Lol
Mate, India are up there on the top of the ladder for a reason ahahah. If you've been following them you'll know why
they're at the top because they doctor their pitches at home to be rank turners. They crumble outside the subcontinentMate, India are up there on the top of the ladder for a reason ahahah. If you've been following them you'll know why
Is the reason their incredible streak of 14 away games without a win? (The most recent being a narrow win over the powerful West Indies mid 2011).Mate, India are up there on the top of the ladder for a reason ahahah. If you've been following them you'll know why
