Really good Series India Vs SA .. been watching all day here .. SA have found one in Keegan Peterson
I like it. But its not an original, a tribute to the tune of Hank Williams Kaw Liga, (gettit? Kawaja/ Kaw Liga), which is one of my favourites. PK's falsetto isn't a patch on HW though.
Yes. Has been great. A much better watch than the BBL and more competitive than the Ashes.
That was always gonna happen despite the BS spin and *smile* weak smoke and mirrors attempt by Dodemaide.
Very interesting story on Langer:
www.smh.com.au
Salient quote: "Langer has taken a back seat since a mutiny by players and support staff in August, leaving assistant coaches Andrew McDonald and Michael Di Venuto in charge, but team sources fear they will leave if the head coach stays."
Cricket Australia must sacrifice Langer or lose winning formula
Justin Langer’s coaching tenure will end after the Hobart Test if Cricket Australia wish to keep the structure which has won an Ashes and Twenty20 World Cup.

Gotta feel for Langer. Called in to scrape up the *smile* after that South African tour n four years later everybody wants a piece of his arse as they punt him out the door.
Too many snowflakes in the dressing room cant handle some hard truths and tough love.
I'm going out on a limb and tipping Warner is one of the trouble makers.

So are the players.
A couple of remarkable happenings in the SA-India Test. Old mate Pant smashes 100 not out after coming in at 4/58. India all out 198, SA 212 to win.
India just became the first side in Test history to lose all 20 wickets to catches. Of their 60 wickets to fall in the series, 55 were to catches, a record for a 3-Test series.
I watched up until India were all out.
Young left arm quick Marco Jansen took 4 wickets giving him 7 for the test and 19 from his 1st 3 tests.
Shame Elgar got out in the last over before stumps. Petersen has played a little gem of an innings so far. His offside play in particular is lovely to watch. Gorgeous back foot cover drive, which has to be one of the best shots in cricket.
Screamer. Markram took a ripper too, standing very close at second slip.
