The humiliation of drawing a home Ashes test to England was obviously too much for Langer.

Fixed for accuracy :wink:

To borrow a quote from an ancient sitcom “you’ve all done very well”

I thought England were bad however South Africa bowled out for less than 100 see NZ score over 400.

They come back out to bat and are 4-3 (now 15-3)

South Africa had a bit of a fight back in the second test, NZ however seem to have enough of a fight back in DeGrandhomme to avoid at least the follow on, anyhow it’s been a decent test match up till now.

I have been guilty of underestimating this SA side too much…

Yeah much better second test and much better test from them in general.

Rip Rod Marsh. Before my time but a legend here in Aus and respected around the world as a fine keeper, batsman and larger than life character. First keeper to score a test hundred.

Very sad day Shane Warne has passed away.

One of the world’s greatest spinners and one guy who could change a game in an over.

Probably the greatest cricketer of the modern era & the best spinner of all time.

Sad news.

In this day and age, the word legend is overused. But it’s an understatement for Warney. RIP

There are some deaths that shock you and remind you of your own mortality and this is definitely one of those…

He certainly lived life to the full though…

As well as being one of the all time greats and the greatest leg spinner ever he seemed like a genuine bloke. Sad day.
