SA Cricket, Test Cricket, ODI and 20/20 cricket as well as some other SA sport updates
The One day squad has been announced with a few new additions. It is fantastic to see van Jaarsveld in the side he is an incredible talent and has a bright future ahead of him as does Wayne Parnell. Tsotsobe has been over for the tests and gets to stay for the ODI’s as well.
187 runs to win, 7 wickets left - could there be a better close to the 1st test? Chris Adams reckons Australia are in the driving seats deciding they are 60/40 favourites!!!
The target of 414 if reached will eclipse the 387 India reached set by England a few days ago. It will be the second highest successful run chase in the 4th innings with only West Indies chasing down a higher total.
Strangely enough this was against Australia - it seems that Australia has many of these records set against them , with South Africa successfully chasing down the 434 set by Australia in the one day arena.
With just a few hours to go, I cant wait to see South Africa successfully chase down a mammoth total - a total that is at least 100 runs too high

South Africa are 37/1 and trailing by 85 runs going into the third day of the final test. The game might be a dead rubber in terms of results but true champions dont back down. (That and there is no South African that wants to see KP start off with a victory!!!) If Jacques Kallis wants to join the rest of the top 6 in getting a century today will be his last shot at it for the test series and if SA ever needed him to perform under pressure today would be the day.
The term “busted flush” has been bandied about by the English supporters whom I am in contact with, an average of 15.83 for the series indicates he hasnt had his finest series.
Cometh the hour cometh the man can Mr Kallis deliver?
On day 1 of the 2nd Test AB De Villiers claimed a catch as can be seen in the clip below. Do you think he is a cheat? Could he not have known? It saddens me to think that winning at all costs seems to have taken over in cricket instead of fair play.
