	Maybe one of you guys can help me, because I've had this argument a couple of times and I still can't wrap my head around it. Why do we need a lead of 150? Why couldn't we have declared, say, last night with 10 overs to go, maybe snag Smith or Pietersen, and give us the maximum time possible to bowl them out? The only possible way we can win is if we get all ten wickets, on such a great track, I don't know why we didn't just back our bowlers. Batting for a session today strikes me as a defensive tactic. ------------------- That is not dead which can eternal lie And with strange aeons even death may die

	If it's because our bowlers did shit on day 1, I don't see how giving them less time to bowl the South Africans out makes any sense. The 2nd reason is what I keep hearing, but that doesn't make sense to me either. If and when the South Africans bat again, they won't be playing for the win, they'll just try to bat the day out. There's no pressure on them to make the 150 at all, the pressure's to not get out - and once again, I would've thought that a tougher ask if they had to bat for longer. ------------------- That is not dead which can eternal lie And with strange aeons even death may die

Guess it doesn't matter now anyway. Clarke's kinda split the difference by declaring today, but earlier than most expected. ------------------- That is not dead which can eternal lie And with strange aeons even death may die

	quote Zarathustra quote Praetorian_Lord Well shit, that was anticlimactic. Adios Punter, arguably the greatest Australian test batsman in history. Well, behind the Don anyway. Also, new thread. Been around for a while too. The sad part is, I've already posted many times in this 'new' thread. Also, when I said arguably I meant including the Don. ------------------- That is not dead which can eternal lie And with strange aeons even death may die
