Good point hhm, it shows just how good Cremer has been recently that we consider an economy of 3 to be below par.

Drawn session in the end. This partnership is a worry. Need a strong 5th hour.

Missing Williams darts badly...
Also Hami and Waller could have been used...

This is turning into a great test match.. drawn session for me. That Holder decision was that crucial moment. Gabriel and Roach won't last long. In the end we only have ourselves to blame after wasting a review in the manner we did... I guess the more games they play, the more they will learn.

The blame must fall only and squarely on Cremer for that.

Raza's solid value. Probably under appreciated if anything... his average is up there with the likes of Ervine and Taylor. And he's very vocal and positive in the field, good leadership as you said Andybligzz.
Having played against Raza many times - he adds value as a leader, bowler, batsman and fielder. A guy you want in your team and will go to war with you. Any chat of dropping him baffles me.

And still cremer persists with the slow bowlers. Bring on Mpofu for an over or two.

It looks like this lead is not going to last very long. Currently 28 ahead...
I reckon it's time to go ultra-defensive. We have to draw this out as long as we can.
