The Cricket Thread

I thought I'd get lynched if I named an Aussie. McGrath was a beast with consistent line and length but I don't think he terrified batters the way Curtley did.
 
Good toss to win by Cook and a good start both him and Hales batting nicely

Newlands looks awesome, I've a few friends there today what a great way to spend a Saturday

Very good day for England, pretty much everybody got in shame Root, Hales didnt go on and get a hundred but Stokes/Bairstow looked decent at the end
 
For the third innings in a row a bunch of guys have gotten in and out without going on to three figures. Ten times in three innings we've had players score 40+ without getting a century (not including Bairstow on 74*) and it will surely cost us at some point.
 
513-5 at lunch, that's a lot of runs scored in the 1st session at a stupidly high run rate too, fantastic from the gingers
 
England scored 196 in 25 overs in that session. Ben Stokes scored 130 in that, the most ever by a batsman in a pre-lunch session in a Test match
 
Wow that was some innings, glad I got up to watch that. Lovely from Bairstow as well.

I would love to watch a test match in Cape Town, scenery is amazing.
