What's awesome is the batting strentgh of the England team.

JUST LOOK at their series averages:

JM Anderson -
IR Bell 3 53.80
RS Bopara 7.00
TT Bresnan 77.00
SCJ Broad 60.66
AN Cook 62.80
EJG Morgan 38.60
KP Pietersen 89.50
MJ Prior 3 63.25
AJ Strauss 37.80
GP Swann 18.33

That's all-round perfection. Probably the lowest standard deviation in scores I've ever seen after 3 test matches for such a high overall average.

Poor Bopara. Probably he'll never get a chance again.

All I want to see now is:

Steyn and Morkel vs Trott, Pietersen, Bell, Cook

Amla, De Villiers, Kallis vs Anderson, Broad, Bresnan

Tahir vs Swann

Broad's all round antics might be decisive too.

All round, England have a definite edge, but is the stand-out bowler and can destroy a whole team on any day. Anderson has the same danger, but not as regularly.

England's batting depth is insane, so I think they'll be very tough to beat anwywhere in the world.

Dr.Grass you are supposrting SA right? :)

Gonna be really interesting since Gary Kirsten is our new coach...too see if the players perform better with him in charge or if its the same old same old.

Im mostly worried about the SA batting line up, i hope they get things sorted.

OT: Congrats to England, i love when that arrogant indian cricket team loses :P

Of course

I'm one of those Newlands regulars

What is going on with SA cricket, you don't seem to be doing anything

Yeah I'm a bit disappointed that nothing is scheduled for now... The Aussies are touring here in October and Sri Lanka in December, so there's some good cricket ahead Will be interesting to see if Imran Tahir can be a successful strike bowler for us - definitely something to keep an eye out for...

For sure! i think hes a great asset to us, he really offers something different to our bowling attack something which i dont think our other spinners can offer. Hes a game winner IMO ;) He just needs to up hes game in the other areas like fielding and batting (he looks useless with a bat o.O).
