Solanki gone, so long as Colly does not wobble, still on for a good score.
Pieterson dropped He He

The ground is on the small side so a 250+ total is required. Current partnership between Solanki and Pietersen yielded 50 off 42 balls. Ouch! Solanki out as I type. Andre Nell pulled of an amazing bit of outfielding to deny Pietersen a four. The ball was bouncing over for four and Nell closed in quickly and dived after it and scooped it back while he kept going over the rope.

Not on cicinfo yet, but if colly plays as well as he did the other day we're in safe hands. he's a damn fine finisher.

Bob Willis just criticized the ground lights calling it "cricket by candlelight". He then said that is why teams prefer to bat first when they come to this ground.

The problem is if either of those two are out, SA don't have a lot of quality.

When Bob willis dies he'll no doubt berate the pearly gates for being to creaky, and enrty system overly complicated and will claim St peter has no idea what he's doing and someone else should do the job.

I might be right about the ground but coming from willis it just sounds a bit whingy.

Pieterson gone, holes out to gibbs, 225 for five, yep I heard the lights are poor, but I wish the SA batsmen were also.

Still think we could get 270.
