England v South Africa 3rd Test The Oval

England win the toss and are going to bat.

Cloudy and slight green pitch, so 5 down by lunch?

Apologies for starting a duplicate thread. I'll make up for it with a 65-0 at lunch prediction.

Jennings gone for a duck.. hardly laid a bat on one of his 9 balls from Philander... until he chased that one a bit and edged it to 3rd :nono:

12-1 (3.3 overs)

Cricinfo sums it up pretty well...

3.3 Philander to Jennings, OUT, gottim, snapped up by third slip! He definitely got bat on that one, a brief but troubled stay is ended, Jennings falling for a duck to give SA another early opening. Textbook working over from Philander and Jennings wasn't up to it

Jennings is clearly not fit for purpose concerning Test Cricket

New cricinfo is verging on unusable.

Hales in for Jennings, at least he might score you 20 before he gets out.

It is way too busy... and really annoying you can't scroll the top third of the screen out of the way :nono:

I do like the 'Statistics' box on the left of the 'Live' tab though.... with batting wagon-wheels and bowlers pitch maps

Control % 93%

Productive Shot
Flick
8 runs
2x4 - 0x6

How do you get it to automatically update the score on the 'LIVE' page?

I didn't do anything... it just does update after every ball (and sometimes more than once - to add a bit of detail or longer comment)

It has stopped! They didn't even make it off the field... and with 15 minutes to go before lunch they are straight back out in the middle :)
