Exactly right 2 batsmen make their average and SA will be in front. Just us long suffering redbacks don't see that happening.
Head was the big wicket, if he was no at stumps I would be very confident of a redbacks win. Guess it's up to lehmann now, say what you want about him he still puts in performances so I'm not writing off a 1st innings lead yet. But get the feeling we will start the 2nd innings about even

Yep SA slightly ahead. The Vics were 5/87, but SA's 5/80 includes the night watchmen. Going to need a couple of quick wickets tomorrow.

He's 23 and has made runs at the level below this year.
Early wicket for Patto, 4 to go. SA still trailing by 100 runs

Evan Gulbis has an FC average higher than Pattinsons FC average and a century, with one more 50. Using a guy's test average after 19 innings (12 of them out) is bad cherry picking.

Patto is all over the shop, bowling really poorly most of the time.

We're well ahead now.

lol. After you were in an identical position?
Can't say I'm that surprised. Fairly inconsistent but he has bowled some good balls. Definitely looks rusty.

Given that we have the better bowling attack; yes. Please don't pretend that Patto, Tremain, Boland, Holland, Christian and Stoinis (at a stretch) is inferior to Sayers, Richardson, Grant, Zampa and Head (at a stretch). Sayers and Richo would get games here ahead of Boland (and Tremain in the case of Sayers) but every bowler we have would get a game at SA comfortably.

To be honest, it's how he's always bowled even at Test level. Has some success due to his pace, but can be fairly expensive and ordinary over half the time. Not a complete fan of him as a Test bowler.

lol better bowling attack and you include Stoinis and Christian. Are you playing at the Fringe Festival this year?

Stoinis was a stretch as I said. DC has 12 wickets @ 23 this season, pretty handy if you ask me. Also don't see any denial forthcoming. Is it perhaps that I'm right?

I don't deny that Tremain is ahead of Richardson. I would say it would be like this: Sayers, Pattinson, Tremain, Richardson, Grant and Boland together, Zampa, Christian. Christian's bowling is bog ordinary 99.9% of the time. Boland is a local park trundler. Grant is up and coming and was brilliant for the NPS before randomly getting dropped.

If I were doing a combined attack it'd have Patto, Sayers, Tremain and Holland. Richardson then Boland next in.
Bradesmaen
TheBrownDog
Sorry forgot about Dutchy. He'd be ahead of Grant and Boland. I'd have Grant before Boland. He already looks better at 19 and doesn't trundle.
Good 50 from Lehmann. He gets them quite regularly and does convert them half the time.

I could cook a three course meal in the time it takes Pattinson to bowl an over. Jesus Christ he is so slow at getting back to his mark.

One more down, 3 to go!
Just need another 30 runs to get within striking distance. Though I wouldn't rate our chances in this match without a 100 run first innings lead.
