Lets hope England deliver the knock out blow tonight as Sth Africa make a habit out of getting out of tight situations with their tail wagging.

The tail wagged, to a degree, but the damage was done early when McKenzie(11), Pollock(0) and Hall(0) were dismissed.

Boucher(52) and Adams(15) added 45 and raised SA's slim hopes but the Test debutant, James Kirtley, dismissed both to see England home by 70 runs.

Kirtley took 6/34 and 8/114 for the match. He was named Man of the Match.

Hahaha what a ripper test the Poms fought back and showed some true character to level the series.

A very good effort considering neither Vaughan or Trescothick are in form yet.

My apologies to England. I said in another thred they should be playing at a lower level of cricket down with Bangladesh.

I still think they should be there. My apology is for South Africa, they should be down with them too.

It just proves the point I made a few months ago - no other team is within cooee of the Aussies. We may be a good team, but we are not great, just everyone else is pathetic! Prime examples being England and South Africa.
