Donny Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Chris Gayle won the toss and elected to bat first in the second Test, from Cape Town. 4/183. Samuels 51. Gayle 46. Morton 23. Ganga 3. Chanderpaul 39 n.o.
Chandan Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 WI 208/5. What kind of a pitch Cape Town has this time around? Last year it was a flat track and that Harris had taken a 5 for. We had lost despite making 400+ in the 1st inning. I can watch the match but just don't feel like watching cricket at the moment after what happebed to us today earlier!
Donny Posted January 2, 2008 Author Posted January 2, 2008 5/220. Chanderpaul again goes past 50. He's 54 n.o. Ramdin 21 n.o. Chanders' last 12 Test innings: 81, 14, 36, 69, 74, 50, 116 n.o. 136 n.o. 70, 104, 8, and today's 50+
The Outsider Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 240/8 at the end of Day 1. How was the pitch for those who watched?

bunny Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Can anybody explain what has happened to Graeme Smith's technique? Did he overachieve at the start of his career?
PaiN_KiLLeR Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 wtf is happening here?? trundlers like dwyane bravo are wrecking the safrican middle order! SA 143/5
Donny Posted January 3, 2008 Author Posted January 3, 2008 Can anybody explain what has happened to Graeme Smith's technique? Did he overachieve at the start of his career? Not necessarily. The game is so scrutinised these days. It doesn't take too long for the better bowlers and coaches to find a batsman's weakness and exploit it. Some subsequent big names, like Steve Waugh, Justin Langer, Matt Hayden, Ricky Ponting etc. were all dropped back to domestic cricket to tighten up their technique - after initial success at the top level.

When did Steve Waugh, Langer and Hayden have initial success at the top level?
Donny Posted January 4, 2008 Author Posted January 4, 2008 7/265. Bravo 4/60. Boucher 59. Prince 73 n.o.
