216-9. Presumably it's now time for Bucknor to ask for the light metre?

Oh please god, let the light deteriorate.

The last time I saw a batting collapse like this was when I was playing for my primary school team and we lost against our arch enemies.

Hell.

although to be fair, that 9th looked like a dodgy lbw.

Is that kinda like a light year?
Or the time it takes light to travel one metre?

No way, what about when we rolled the Windies over in the summer, they went down like a two dollar whore.

Exactly like that 😉

Oh God, no - 2 catches down in one over and Smith fancies the win!

Well practically no-one thought SA could be bowled out by England in 2 sessions. Everyone pretty much resigned themselves to a draw - including the SA batsmen - ha! what a wakeup call.

Smith going for the runs? Who knows? It's only improbable, not impossible 😉
