Herbert Sutcliffe's sparking display with the bat played a big role in his team's 8-wicket win.
 
This is the second time I lose and the worst lose :facepalm we will probably bounce back and top the order and win the cup too , Wally Hammond is the key player , I was afraid of ICC Wisden XI because they have Bradman and I knew that if my batting fails , their batsmen are going to give me an enormous lead wich they gave but I , I mean my team should have batted well in second innings to give them a defendable target , a high defendable target so our bowlers could easily draw or bowl them all out if my bowlers were willing to do it .:facepalm A huge batting collapse I can say .
 
Herbert finally came to the party and how! It was his innings that stabilized things in the middle for us with other playing good hands at the other end. Proctor, the RSA version of raging bull, added vital runs down the order to swell our total. Most bowlers were right on the money which helped us gain a huge first innings lead before Sutcliffe ended the test in style.
 
Keith Miller and Charlie Turner out, Warwick Armstrong and Clarrie Grimmett to take their places respectively. Last 4 to bat as per their batting expertise. Warwick to bowl spin.
