Can't be much longer to play now. Anyone watching Sky?

I'm rapidly failing in my efforts to stay away from the pub - listening to Talk Sport

about 20 overs left

the weather is as good as it's been all day

 

[Brixtaan]

Radio for me,sounds like the light is becoming an issue,they've gone off before at 5:15.

but 16 overs remaining that they think they'll bowl.surely enough time but Ntini can bat.

 

[CHAPPERS]

I'm TENSE.

 

[Pevenseagull]

I'm not



OUT

 

[Brixtaan]

but Ntini can bat.

ha ha not today.

 

[Scoffers]

Yes, Ntini can bat, but he gives you half a chance also

 

[Pevenseagull]

Ntini gone for 13

 

[Seagull over NZ]

Ntini gone. We just needed an over to bowl at him ! Go on Freddie, finish Steyn off !

 

[Scoffers]

15 overs to go, 105 runs required, not impossible, but would need to take some risks. All three results still possible

 

[CHAPPERS]

YYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[Brixtaan]

Ready nearly for the Aussies.Key needs more time.

 

[Pevenseagull]

starting to get gloomy

[cheeseroll]
