Boland is given the new ball and immediately strikes the kind of blow that suggests Jansen will need two new ones. #SAvAUS 🏏

This is incredibly Dan. Just the three conjoined angles skipping gaily along in parallel: cricket, going on holiday to a game reserve and, of course, Dungeons and Dragons style magic.

Australia are touring South Africa again and we have to level with you: we aren’t entirely sure what one of them’s playing at www.kingcricket.co.uk/australia-ar...

Getting all nostalgic about "Disgraced Smith a sad sight drinking alone in New York".

I choose to believe the 'Dragons v Badgers' contest they're advertising between deliveries is a literal fight between those animals. It's South Africa. There are all manner of beasts there. Some must fight. Some must do so on television. #SAvAUS 🏏

"For fairly obvious reasons, King Cricket can't do anything about the obscene and unjustifiable levels of AI funding we're seeing at the minute." Not with that attitude you won't. Kyle Reese must be rolling in his upcoming cradle.
