SIX Centurions in the Match as SA Battle After Following-On! | Classic Test | Eng v SA 2008

England dominated early on, declaring with nearly 600 on the board following big hundreds from Ian Bell and Kevin Pietersen. The visitors were forced to follow-on after being bowled out for 247, but battling centuries from Graeme Smith, Neil Mckenzie and Hashim Amla meant the Test ended in a draw.

Six fielders on the onside and still Amla piercing those gaps defines his class & those magical wrists.

[@basitali3651]

What a Test Match. What a effort from Proteas. What a fight back by Proteas. Well played Smith, McKenzie and Amla. Match ended to drawn. Love you South Africa Cricket ❤️👌

[@letlotloseabela7292]

Ah we had such a good squad and one of the greatest captains in Graeme Smith

[@CaptainPedant]

Anderson, Broad, Sidebottom and Panesar -- pretty good bowling attack back then. Good to be reminded of how well Broad could bat before he got hurt.

[@qumbermurtaza9186]

Good point I dont think now in this, day age will have another kallis with his genius batting smith ,with is his great leadership skills and Peterson with his calmness and the hash amla the best wrist player they were absolute geniuses of batman's an era I wish we could rewind

[@camcunningham9443]

Mark Boucher does not deserve to be in this conversation wtf. Alastair Cook played in this match…

[@rahulhebbar7240]

Ian Bell was treat to watch🔥

[@nilanjandas7624]

Pietersen looked like the best test batsman at the moment. Whereas Graeme Smith is a legendary opener in tests. From such a young age he started opening and captaining his side too.

[@rohanyeole6520]

Those were the days when Hashim Amla used to field at short leg and I feel his head was one of the luckiest.

[@SirANK8]

Pietersen from 2005 to 2009 was the best batsman I’ve seen play for England. Sad that injuries and mismanagement from both KP and the ECB meant he couldn’t keep going and end up with around 30 test tons.

[@Pruthvi123]

This decade is perfect for test cricket no flat pitches teams getting all out it shows how weak they are in test cricket

[@shivamshukla861]

Now days test cricket has become 20-20 but i have taken full pleasure of test cricket the time when Radio commentry was at its peak but these days it is not so popular as it was before so let's try to extend the fixture of test cricket because this is real cricket and red ball does something different when it is played and i still remember that era when Peterson thrashed many teams many times and he could still play more if he was asked to do but he took retirement very early due to his personal reasons. Hats off to him for brilliant career.

[@mallikarjunroyal6878]

Test cricket is Good now a days

[@salmanalihashmi7264]

[@basitali3651]

23:35: What a delivery. Just love it to watch in Test cricket.

[@markhayward7400]

Strauss and Cook together were the last great test match opening partnership England had. A measure of how far we have fallen from their standard can be seen every time walking wicket Crawley comes out to bat!

[@SeanBeatsMapson]

Tbf you are comparing two players, who were both arguably the finest opening batsman of their era, it’s hard to get one of these players. England were blessed with two, opening the batting is the hardest role in test cricket other than maybe the number 3 or 4 positions. You face a new ball, fit bowlers, and in England a ball that swings 90 degrees. There’s very few successful opening batsman in the current era, maybe Warner, Conway (hasn’t done it long enough), khwaja (Australia took a punt on him but he won’t be around Minch longer). Cook averaged 45+ which is phenomenal for an opener in England, take into consideration openers rarely get many not outs. If he was a number 4 he would probably average well into the 50’s with not outs. But yes Crawley is not up to the grade, but to compare him to Strauss and Cook is unfair. They were generational talents.

[@markhayward7400]

@SeanBeatsMapson You make some good points. I live in Kent and watch a lot of Kent playing cricket. Crawley is a showboater addicted to the front foot drive whose defence is non existent against the moving ball. Technically he is not up to it. The irony is that Kent do have a technically proficient opener who is up to it and who averages 50+ in first class cricket : the left hander, Ben Compton !

[@Soubhik12345.]

[@HassanAli-xl8kr]

[@bluegreen3771]

A similar fightback needed now.

[@mayuragrawal7344]

Prince was so underrated player.

[@SeanBeatsMapson]

He definitely was not underrated. He had the misfortune of playing in a team that consisted of smith, de villiers, kallis and amla. Smith - 48+ average Amla 46+ average Kallis - 55+ average De villiers- 50+ average Prince - 41+ average And someone who is of African heritage and lives in England, I watched South Africa play at every chance, Prince was the perfect number 5 batsman. And the number 5 is usually a batsman who gets no glory but is normally the glue of a batting line up. He can come in and have to slog and give his wicket up for quick runs, or he comes in at 25/3 and he has to hold the innings together. And prince always stood up when he needed too and was always given credit for that. But he was not underrated at all he has some of the finest batsman to play the game ahead of him.

[@SeanBeatsMapson]

Paul collingwood played a very similar role for England as prince! And I’d say both were very under appreciated but not underrated.
