I also agree about hawkeye,it is about time the game was dragged fully into the 21st century.

Well sort of tongue in cheek but there is a lot of truth in what I stated. Of course it doesn’t apply to all women.

Judging from the letters pages on Ceefax and Teletext many women seem to have a crush on some male tennis players and jump down the throat of anyone who dares to criticise their man even if the criticism is justified.

I’m not saying that it is wrong or anything, just the way that it appears.

Hawkeye is used successfully at Wimbledon so why not cricket.

Looking forward to the cricket in the morning?
We really need to win this test series to go back above South africa to second in the ICC rankings.
What does anybody think to our chances of winning?
I'm not overly confident after our dismal display at time in the recent ODI's against New Zealand,i know it's a different form of the game but i just feel that SA will have too much for us to handle and even though it will be tight can see us losing.
Really hope i'm wrong though!

I think that the Springboks will show us how to play test cricket and the only way that we will even draw the series is if it rains for three days out of each five.

Win the series? No chance!

My inkling is that England won't win the first match..but we could win the series..the "stats" are against SA winning the series, last time was 1965.

And how good are the South Africans?... don't look nowt special to me.

Back to the first post..I would not like to see Cricket turn into a computer game ..eh eh? and we will beat the Saffis.

Well we haven't made a bad start so far!
Just worry if we can sustain it or are we going to get the infamous England collapse?
