Les Norton - as an obvious cricket lover, did you catch any of the final day of the SA v india test? i watched the final two sessions after following most of the game through the 'cricbuzz' app. incredible.
du plessis and de villiers were unbelievable. shame that after du plessis got run out with 2 overs left, philander and steyn blocked their way to a draw. ended up 8 runs shy of a 458 run 4th innings chase.
that SA batting line up is something else - kallis, de villiers, du plessis, amla all well above 50 averages, smith a tad over 49. pujara will be a legend of the game by the time he is done, too.
the match was quite a refreshing change from the annihilation the ashes has turned into — which is only going to get worse now.
