Important wicket for Broad, need to clatter a few.

Looks like Broad is having one of his spells, couldn't have timed it better

That is a huge wicket. SA are effectively 20-3 now. Great spell of bowling from Broad.

I thought watching the end of our innings this morning there's a low score in this pitch whilst it stays cloudy and with de Villiers now gone they could be 100 all out here.

Amla is the key wicket, get him soon and i agree this could be a very short innings.

Screw Broad and Taylor, I'm taking the credit for that one!

Now the key is keeping the pressure on as the ball gets older. The pattern from the first two innings has been early wickets then consolidation, we need to make sure that is not repeated.

Not good enough from Broad!

Are there really people who prefer the hit and run nonsense to Test cricket?

Bloody hell, Broad sure is able to pick the right spots when it comes to unplayable spells, isn't he? It's like he has a "run through batting order" card that's only available every few Tests, but he gets complete discretion as to when to play it.
