End day 2.

SA 20 ahead, 3 wkts left.

SA 1.62

Aus 3.2

Draw 14

Wkt taking a lot of spin .. in my view, SA will need 100 run lead, if they are going to bat last, and Aus score 300 ish.

All the value in the Aus price.

Geez I hate the way our guys carry on. Warner in particular, but most of them do it. The Sonny Bill Williams stuff yesterday was a bit much by the South African crowd but we bring it on ourselves.

Loved the way the West Indies did it in the eighties, just let bat and ball do the talking. They were awesome and they knew it. You can intimidate by performance, no need for "mental disintegration".

Aus play v hard.

Warner has been getting better. Maybe this is a one-off.

'The final Word podcast, last 2 episodes deal with it pretty well.

I have been looking at that Aus price for 30 plus minutes debating the same. I have decided to sit and wait.

At the price of 3 I would need Aus to bowl SA out cheaply and then go post the highest score in the test match.

Not sure I can trust those two variables.

Run line for Aus would be interesting.

If they set SA 240, I think Aus would like chances.

More, a bonus

Hope you held off Mega, AB is singlehandedly taking over.

On the earlier point - I think you can "play hard" wiithout the constant sledging. It does permeate our culture, I played local cricket at a decent level and it was the same there too. I hated it, I'm there for enjoyment, sure I want to win but not at any price.

I admire the NZ attitude. I'd rather play with the right spirit than win all the time but be intensely disliked.

What can move the market ?

Maybe 200+ target for SA. Which Aus can make I say.

Khawaja looking improved on off-side this time.
