You can spend all your life watching this, the trajectory, the dip, the turn and the bat going across trying to make some contact, Dream for any off spinner. Pure Magic 👌🏼

Kagiso Rabada has taken the fewest balls in Test history to complete 350 wickets 🤫 ⚡

If this test series vs Oz wasnt enough to state an unequivocable case of more Tests and less hit and giggle, then we are lost as a sporting nation. Absolute drama from start to finish. Nothing quite like it. We need more Tests. Break the big three monopoly.

A few points before I consume my weight in beer: 1. Shukri is the best coach on the world. 2. Bavuma is the best captain in the world. 3. Rabada is the best quickie in the world. 4. Jansen is the best all-rounder in the world. 5. Harmer is the best spinner in the world. 6. Newlands is the best stadium in the world. Kind regards, Dan Cricket

we got two black captains shoving it back down people's throats 💪🏻 but while Siya have a bit more high spirits to him, Temba strike me as someone who got less time for your k*k.

Test cricket at its finest. What a series. Small rant - back in the day you could go to a test post tea for a reduced rate. Yesterday people were being charged R300 at 430pm to enter. Tests during the week and now making it hard for people to come watch. Surely not@TicketProSA

End of day 4: Australia need 288 to win series. SA need 10 wickets. Some Australian is going to have to bat forever and a day. Can’t see it happening. SA to win has been my call since the toss. Tomorrow it’s duck or no dinner! 11/10 🇿🇦 15/10 🇦🇺 5/1 draw

The point of the Tadgh decision is simple. Perhaps there was not enough evidence. But there certainly wasnt enough with JHW a year ago and despite that he got 9 weeks "on balance of probabilities". Travesty. How do you explain the gross discrepancies between the two cases?

This has been one of the best Test cricket series the planet earth and universe has ever seen. Thoughts and prayers with anyone who doesn’t enjoy test cricket. Tomorrow is the day, my Champions. ❤️🇿🇦🏆 #SAvAUS

That's a nice scrum you have there, it would be a real shame if the Springboks DESTROYED it. Ridiculous strength & technique! FULL VIDEO: youtu.be/DUuc1Cw_bUg

Whatever happens from here, 2 things are indisputable: 1. Test cricket is the greatest sport on earth. 2. This should have been a 4 or 5 match series and South Africa deserves more (or even any) of them.
