I'm a bit worried abbout Bewbs' batting line up. It has to fire at some point. Mind you, Youssou should be batting third now...

Mmmhmm. Too much top class batting in there to fail all the time. Ntini & Vaas a major let down though.

Whoh. Heading for a tight finish there. Bring back timeless tests! Disappointing result given the relative positions on the table, but at least it wasn't a loss - which it easily could have been.
