England foiled in victory bid
Eurosport – Mon, 14 Jul 17:41:00 2008

South Africa frustrated England’s attempts to force a result on the final day of the first Test at Lord’s with more stubborn defence on a somnolent pitch to earn a draw. Read the entire article here:

Mooi man! Volgende een seker ‘n wen! Great South Africa…we want victory!

I love cricket! We used to play it a lot on the farm during holidays when there were big family gatherings….that’s during December hols…I had one uncle that was really good at cricket and in his younger days he played really well, I think he played for a province, I will have to make sure about that one again…but he was really good, he could hit a ball with a bat that you would have to ask Noah if he’d seen it!
UPDATE …2nd Test South Africa vs England

    Hi Wipneus … ek wens ek kon dit gaan KYK!!!
    Hi Boer… hulle moet net so aangaan…dan’s daar hoop, ons TV het probleme gegee en soos gewoonlik, laat weet VirginMedia dat hulle eers gister kon uitkom om ons probleem op te los…en daar mis ek die uitsending die naweek!! 😦

    Ek wil graag weet in Toetskrieket, na hoveel “overs” mag die “boal” span die nuwe bal neem. Ek en my man stry elke aand daaroor. Is dit presies na 80 “boalberte” of kan dit voor die tyd geneem word?

    Love my krieket en ook rugby

    Groete

    Mariaan, as die eerste span al sy overs gebruik het, dan begin die tweede span, (behalwe as almal uit is natuurlik), maar wat ek wil weet…hoekom gaan SA nog aan na 255 nadat Engeland slegs 232 het en hulle is almal uit… my man het verskeie redes gevoer, maar ek weet nie… 😉 terloops, welkom hier!
