i liked this off the BBC text... "Bell had better hope that Cook doesn't get a century here, or these will be considered 'pressure off' runs by the pundits again."

It's just a shame that there are loads of South Africans there. Instant ruin.
It doesn't look like theres many saffas...
Just lots of pink poms.
Can't quite believe a ticket, the most expensive one too, is £4.
What £4 to get into the cricket???

cook gone, bell needs to step up now
Yeh. Or £2 for the cheap seats.
Fuck me, it's around £80 to see Pakistan at the Oval this summer, and that's a cheap seat!!!
Prior is due some runs. Either that or a nice spooned up catch.
Aye. boycott was having a good ole fashioned whinge about the discrepancy in prices too. but hey - tests in england still sell out. bonkers.

I'm going to go and watch Pakistan at Lord's.
Against Australia.
Against Australia.
Small grounds I guess. What's the capacity in SA grounds??? Surely more than the English 20,000.

They're not much bigger, but there's a smaller population interested in going.
England's a rip-off for any popular sports. The greedy cunts added about 40% to the price of tickets after the 2005 Ashes win, and sold out to Sky for good measure.
The crazy thing is that the 'product' looks a hell of a lot more attractive in cape town than in vauxhall... they still have actual grassy banks there. and you can bring your own barbeque. and as much booze as you want. and theres half naked girls everywhere. well worth a fiver.

from this position, we've got to be happy with a deficit of less than 60 or so. with broad, swann and prior, don't be surprised to see us get a lead of 100 though

should be a cracking end to the match
Well it's certianly going to be a result match thats for sure. England let this slip today, they had the series there for the taking and then they all threw their wickets away. I'd rather be in SA's position now as chasing anything over 150 batting last will not be easy.

i think a lot could depend on how many runs we can eke out for the last three wickets. i don't think either team are going to score many runs in their second innings, so 40-50 runs either way could make a whole load of difference.

Batting number 6.. soft runs, soft dismissals and all stats inflated by 227* vs Bangladesh at the start of his career. Averages at best in the high 30s which is not the mark of a good test batsman.
vital runs to ensure the Ashes were won, built the platform for victory in Durban and ground out some tough runs in the face of top order failure today
well batted
he's never scored a Test double century btw so I have no idea where you got that from
edit: oh I see, you're combining his innings v Bangladesh
Averages 69 v Pakistan, 48 v South Africa, 43 v Sri Lanka and 41 v West Indies. More soft runs I guess.
His two dodgy opponents are Australia and India, both around 25.
