I do not get why De Kock is being played, when he takes so so so long to get his eye in and has an incredibly poor strike rate. He just impedes RSA from getting a good flow going.

I would guess they're only playing him for his cray wicket keeping skills.

I was just thinking about this hahah
That probably is the case. He was gonna be out with Maxwell.
But he hangs in there which is good if the batsman at the other end is making runs.

What do you guys predict will be SA's score? I reckon 210 if they're lucky.

If I had to predict, I'd actually say 260. Looks like Miller and de Villiers are in for the long haul....

can't remember the last time Steve Smith was bowled. he's actually quite a good bowler, being picked as an allrounder when he first started playing cricket for Australia. really don't get why Australia don't bowl him more....

not as certain as you suggest, but there is a strong enough chance, especially if these two stick around long enough :)

speaking of which, de Villiers, I bow down to you. I wish I could watch you sweep the ball like that over and over again. clean, crisp and strong.
