Well he was wrong :) He said both Taylor and Cremer's partners were pregnant. Then Nkala corrected him by saying Cremer has a 6 month old kid now :)

The captain is in charge, and he is in the middle. He can go on if he likes.
looked like the follow-on decision came from the Grant and Steve.
Mangongo may want to call the shots, but while he is in the middle pushing towards a century in each innings, he can make sure he doesn't look up to the dressing rooms.

Cremer is very strong through the off side isn't he! Cover drives, full blooded cut shots. Very nice to see.

He's on 42 right now :4:
I sure hope he can bring up a much deserved Test half century.

Both boys I hope, they will need to anchor the Test team in 20 years time.

It would be nice if he contributed with the ball as well.

That is ridiculously silly! If Taylor wanted a run, he should have called loudly. Cremer was tangled with the umpire and had no choice. Sacrificing himself though :(

Isn't 150 overs enough to bowl them out? Maybe if we can we can be a bit conservative and bat out the morning session, get 500? Provided wickets don't tumble of course. That would be really conservative though, I don't see Bangladesh scoring 300 runs easily on this wicket with our attack, and possibly Cremer spinning it. Unlucky to get out before the half century
