Maddinson out. That was a ridiculous experiment always doomed to fail. 2 fewer Tests for Australia to actually find a proper opener. The parallels to England selection are not lost on me. #SAvAus #Newlands

Steven Smith, Kylie Minogue, Rolf Harris, Wolverine, Evonne Goolagong, Dawn Fraser, Matgot Robbie, Greg Norman, Jason Gillespie (201*), Mick Dundee, Sir Les Patterson, Rupert Murdoch, Kelly Slater, Pat Cummins. Your boys took one hell of a beating. #SAvAus #InningsDefeat

Will we get a snow stops play scenario? I know the women had to deal with frost last year.

This really is a fabulous Test Match at a wonderful ground. I can't believe I'm going to say this but there has been some great banter from the Aussies here at St. George's Park. Not often you see the Aussies 99 all out. #SavAus

You've got to love the Pakistan "club" team's names, eg. Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited v Oil & Gas Development Company Limited. Far better than anything like Super Kings v MI Ego.

I'm not exactly close up but this pitch looks like a bit of a shocker and it's been getting wetter and wetter. We could easily lose a day and a half to rain but I wouldn't bet against a result, in Australia's favour. Good toss to win. #SAvAus #StGeorgesPark

Does anyone know what George Hill has done to totally piss off the England selectors? Not even in the Lions squad.

So play today finishes a bit later today but well over 30 minutes before close. Why did they make the 1st 2 sessions longer knowing full well that 6,5 hours play when starting at 09:30 is totally unfeasible?
Test cricket again shoots itself in the foot. Everyone knows that there is no chance of play after 17:00 in Durban. In previous years, play has started 30 mins earlier to make up lost time to light/weather. But not for this #SAvAus Test which means we're looking at 65 overs/day.

Dear @abcsport Any particularly why you're not broadcasting commentary for the #SAvAus Test online?

Good to see Italian BAD Manenti (not to be confused with the good Manenti) score his maiden 馃挴 in any format. 馃嚠馃嚬 @FedCricket #SheffieldShield

Isn't the point of ECB contracts to have some kind of control over those players? Why do they keep giving a contract to a player who has zero chance of being picked up in any franchise competition & very little chance of playing any actual Test cricket unless maybe it's in Asia?

Rant incoming - 1/5 Richard Gould's comments on @sticktocricket regarding having at least one men's Test Match in The North up to 2039 have been reported by almost journalists as a good thing for Old Trafford & Headingley. Rubbish. Let's deal with the obvious vagary first.

4/5 every 1 in 5!/(3!2!) = 10 times or 40 years. 1 of them holding a Test 6 in 10 times and both holding a Test 3 in 10 times. I haven't found 1 journalist who has reported these numbers (I don't read everything) Is there one out there?

5/5 I don't really expect the likes of Vaughan, Cook, Bumble & Tuffers to be able to do the maths on the spot but come on everyone else, it's really not hard, just adding 6+5+4+3+2+1 or with 2 set in stone 4+3+2+1

I probably should be "grateful" that neither the BBC nor Cricinfo isn't using "Retired hurt" which doesn't exist in the laws of cricket but one of them is definitely wrong!
