    Gabriel gets 4 match suspension for something no one heard. Sandpaper scandal recommendation from ICC was about 2 matches if I recall...

    Wow - this would be one of the best/most successful last wicket partnerships ever!

    Plenty bigger, but not many that have taken their team to a win. In fact - none!

    @Chris-B Love a 10th wicket partnership to win a game especially when the batsman goes 6 hitting crazy

    That is awesome, massive result for Sri Lanka after they've had a tough run. Test cricket is the best.

    Amazing result. Didn't look like SL had any fight in them, then injuries to follow big losses... Amazing

    bloody hell. talk about an innings for the wank bank.

    stuff.co.nz had the headline he hit a 'garage' ( as opposed to barrage ) of sixes haha....the editor is phoning his job in even worse these days.

    Gayle scored 135 off 129 deliveries. Included 12 sixes and 3 fours. In other words, he scored 84 off 15 balls, and 51 off the other 114 at a strike rate well under 50.

    Judging by the ease England ran down the total I'm going to say Gayle is lazy as fuck and cost the Windies that game.

    Cracking last day set up in Port Elizabeth. SA need 8 wickets to save face and draw their series at home.
    Sri Lanka need 137 to sweep the series 2 nil, after been sent on an arduous 3 tour quest to earn some money for the cricket board to further embezzle and squander.

    Only England and Australia have ever won a test series in South Africa. Would be quite a feat for a team that got put through the ringer in NZ and Aus this summer.

    Lots of wickets on this pitch so it'll be 3 hours or enthralling test cricket

    Agree Gayle is a bit of a plodder when he is not hitting boundaries, would be interested to see how many dot balls he uses up or how many singles he bothers to run. Looks like he has done it again in tonights match.

    Aussie girls managed to somehow pull victory from the jaws of defeat against NZ in Perth yesterday.

    @Siam If Sri Lanka win, pretty sure NZ go up to second in the test rankings.

    However, if SA win, we need to beat the Bangles 3-0 to get to second.

    he's way too cool to get stressed and try and run quick singles.
