The last 25 tests in England have produced 21 results and only 4 draws.
The last 25 tests at the Oval have produced 7 draws.
Why the complaint about English pitches.
Unofficial test championship starts tomorrow

LOL this match has been MURDER to rhatid!! 
, i hope South Africa can get a 300 lead with around 20 overs to go today, that would really put England under pressure, if Sa are gonna press home the advantage it's vital they get at least 2 or 3 wickets by the end of the day, because England are more than capable of hanging on if they have all eleven wickets tomorrow,
This has been their first genuine challenge against a good team at home and look whats happening? and yet the english media was trying to compare their team to the great WI and Australian ones?
,
Another thing is look at Swann today? ABSOLUTE GARBAGE, and people think Narine struggled in England? , that is the kind of pitch he had to make his DEBUT on, it was damn tough for the yute man, a world class attack could make things happen though, England have just accepted defeat here, their bowlers have totally run out of ideas, that's why when Narine reaches his peak we're gonna be very lucky because a spinner with his variations will be able to get something out of roads like that, just like Murali and Warne did.

I dont know why everybody come down on Narine fuh dat game.
narine was a victim there..first of all from Gibsons incompetence then of the media all over him for not running through the english batting..which was not at all possible although Gibson..like Goddard with ram and val..thought it was
englandscan be ridiculous when it comesd to cricket..very chaunivist and chupid. deh made this jackass pitch to blunt the saffie attack and end up getting it good.
its hard fuh dem to beat the saffies anyway... but they have no chance on a wicket like this if thet cant bat for 3 days themeslves. we will know how world class the saffie bowling is when england bat again.
if deh blast england out again they may be called the best.

I have no idea whether England prepared this pitch to blunt the SA attack. Given the English attack that would make make no sense - at least not to me.
England will have to bat to save the game and we will see how good they are.
That is what test match cricket is all about!!

I believe Narine will only be stronger after that experience, infact one could argue that he's already a better bowler now having seen what he just done to NZ, hopefully he can put the iceing on the cake in the tests,
The Sa bowlers are gonna be really hyped up when they bowl and word is the pitch is gonna take turn and bounce by tomorrow!! , if true that would be terrible for England, i wonder how our 1980s attack would have coped on this track? would we have allowed Sa to score this many runs?
I'm really glad to see England get a beating, they are just far too cocky man, "oh we've got the best attack in the world"..."oh WI were just warm up games, no challenge at all"..."we can compare this team to WI 1980" etc, just rubbish man
,
In the end they just might get away with a draw here, but mentally they will be very down about this and SA are running things right now.
