Well day3 of the 1st cricket test in Sth. Africa and the Sth. Africans are on the ropes and things are looking pretty grim for them atm.
We declared yesterday at 7 for 652 after a 323 run partnership between Gilchrist and Martyn. Martyn scored 133 before gettin' out and Gilchrist scored the fastest ever double century finishing on 204 after 213 balls when the innings was declared.
The Sth.Africans have just been dismissed 159, loosins their last 6 for 48 runs leaving them 493 runs behind and will soon take up their bats again to see if they can force us to bat again.
But really things look pretty bleak for them with their fast bowler Donald being injured and requiring a runner to bat.
