SA v England - Wickets

By Chris Shillington on 13 January 2010 at 06:37

As far as bowlers paradise’s go the Wanderer’s Ground in Johannesburg at present is as near as utopia as they’re going to find. My man at the ground last night tells me that the stormy weather will make it swing, the green service will make it move off the seam and the pitch itself is always a bit bouncy.

After a series for the spinners it’s time for the quicks to roll up their sleeves. Here at extrabet.com we have a sports spread bet market on how many wickets each bowler will take in the Test match:

-    J Anderson 4-4.5
-    S Broad 3.5-4
-    G Onions 3.5-4
-    D Steyn 4-4.5
-    M Morkel 3.5-4

Remember BUY if you think more and SELL if you think less. My man tells me word back from the SA camp is that Morne Morkel is the man who they expect to lead the attack to the English in a Test Match they need to win. At 6 foot 6 and able to move the ball you can see why! If SA take all 20 of England’s wickets he should have a fair share of them.

No news for the England camp except you’d expect this to play right into the hands of Jimmy Anderson. With 16 wickets already in the series he’s in form and when the ball swings he can sometimes be unplayable.
