The Cricket Thread 2016

[OzVilla]

Had no luck so far. On another day could easily have them 3 or 4 down.

[Dr Butler]

another gone !!

Amla for 40....great reward for Finn

[PaulWinch again]

Great ball from Moeen and then a great one from Finn. Need to capitalise on this now.

[PaulWinch again]

South Africa are on top at tea I'd say, with AB looking dangerous. But if we can nip out another couple of quick wickets we'll be in the driving seat.

[PaulWinch again]

Great from Stokes to get rid of AB. We need to get one of these fairly quickly now, I reckon 300 might be a good score on this pitch.

[PaulWinch again]

Good one Finny!

[spangley1812]

Bavuma's wicket is key now

[PaulWinch again]

I hope they've learned that bowling short to Bavuma is not a great idea.

[Villan For Life]

Bavuma run out, 212-6.

If we can get another couple before stumps then it's our day.

[PaulWinch again]

SA are winning the end of this day here, we just don't appear to be able to deal with Morris.

[PaulWinch again]

Our day I'd say, but they won the last half hour. We need to knock them over quick in the morning.

[PaulWinch again]

Very odd decision to start with Anderson this morning, Finn should have been bowling. At least Morris is gone now, well done Broady.

[PaulWinch again]

Shows what I know, Jimmy strikes! I do think Finn is starting to put himself forward as the frontline of our attack though.

[paul_e]

Finn is the strike bowler, we should use him like Australia use Johnson, short spells where he gives 100% for 3-4 overs.  I'm ok with Broad and Jimmy being the 'go to' seamers when we have Finn and Stokes in the team who can both be much more aggressive.

[PaulWinch again]

Finn should be on now.
