So, Hash to use this series to get his average over 50 again and then retire?

Would say he will play against the Indians.

Zim has forfeited a review. Opening partnership looking solid to this juncture.

Elgar falls to Kyle Jarvis coming back on for his second spell.

And now Amla fails.

How tall is Blessing Muzarabani? 6'9 or something? I thought the days of tall as heck seamers were behind us.

Thought he might have another hit and then declare with 400 up and Zimbots batting under lights. Pretty awful batting display from them this morning. Philander will surely have to find more pace to trouble the Indians unless there is something in the pitches.

I watched every ball this morning of this test. The Zim batsmen are pretty average. Still think Philander might have to lift his speed to trouble India and Oz batsmen. Zimbots handled him more easily than Morkel or Rabada. Phek looks pedestrian.

Okay, let's see if this attack finds the Indians and Aussies just that little bit more challenging than this very much second tier cricket team.

Fine, don't tell me...

But seriously no matter how tall he is, he's unlikely to get a second chance to take a wicket in his maiden test match if Morkel maintains this level of intensity.
