1St Test: England vs. South Africa July 19

This summer’s sporting action continues at a frenetic pace. After the failure of british football, rugby and tennis it seems that we are looking to cricket and cycling for sporting success to cheer us up and help us get over the summer blues. So with ni furtehr adue we will move onto the cricekt review: Started  on 19th July 2012 from Kennington Oval At the end of the first day england is in a strong position, loosing only 3 wickets for 267 runs. thinsg were looking up for South africa when they tookt the wicket of Andrew Strauss in just the first over but they havent been able to maintain this and his openeing partner, Allaister Cook has been the star of the show so far. It has clearly not been a bowlers day as they effectivey conceded 267 runs for just 2 wickets, with England looking to set up a solid partnership things look onimous for the Africans however as we all know a test is a 5 day affair and the fat lady has not yet sung!
