After the First Test draw it would be great if we could pinch the series with a win at the Sheikh Zayed. But that implies we have the momentum, and you know how much I hate the m-word. Nevertheless, after Faff saved the Test in Adelaide in 2012 after Australia had been all over South Africa, the Varks came out and pantsed us in Perth. That is the advantage of fighting to save Tests and stay in contention to win series. Hang in there and you never know what may happen.
Those 4 wickets were almost inexplicable, given the second session so far. Also Starc cant bowl 3 decent balls in an over it seems

Lyon took 4 for 0, and 0 for 78.

Fourth on our all time wicket takers list. He will pass Lillee for sure. Last time India were here was the making of him in Adelaide. Will be a great series for him again.

Anything they can do we can do worse.

So many collapses I've given up listing them.

The two worst runouts in test history, and they are in the same game.

Can we have a review of the Pat Howard legacy. Particularly in our performance away from home since he arrived. Methinks the committee would recommend his departure, based on his high performance criteria.

Release the Newlands three.
