Re: The Cricket Thread
Journeyman Smith continues to hit a bit of form - well done to him. I thought his captaincy was timid. It was his 1st test though so maybe a bit understandable. Hopefully it won't continue
As for WI, do you actually follow what goes on it a test match rather than just making it up? If you did you'd know that there were 2 days lost to rain in the 2nd test. Hard to get a result with that
SA's bowlers were awesome yesterday evening. Harmer has massive potential

I knew you could do it - well done. And no, I won't be one of those people

Re: The Cricket Thread
A great win in Cape Town yesterday. Means we take the series 2 zip and stay No.1 at the April 1 turnaround (2nd year in a row)
This year will be interesting when it comes to test rankings. We don't play test cricket again until late July (2 test series in Bang.) and then a 4 tester against England at home. Australia on the other hand have a short series in WI and then the Ashes. I expect them to win both so they may get the No.1 spot by the end of the winter, only for SA to take it back over the summer

. But that seems to be a winning formula for most teams.I think Kohli will go a long way as a batsmen and captain. He's got a real fighting spirit.
