Under 400 to win. Nice. Reckon we can pull this one off.....
If we pull off a draw it would be fantastic achievement. Not sure if 400 let alone 500 has ever been scored by the side batting fourth to win.

Highest chase is 418 from West Indies against Australia I think.

Arse, Pietersen gone at 129, not long before the close.

Saffers had de Wet to come in, who do we have? Carberry seems to be next in line, would he do better?
And besides, Pietersen has the highest average of any of our batsman by a mile, despite a rather poor series so far. Form/Class and all that.

I'd go with 5 bowlers or play Lukey Wright, given we're gonna have to win to win the series

Actually, so would I- I strongly dislike playing 4 bowlers only unless you have an all rounder of Kallis' quality, which lets face it, only the Saffers have, or it's a complete minefield. I just don't think there's any chance of our Selectors going with a 5 man bowling attack- a drawn series away in South Africa would be a respectable result. I just wouldn't drop KP for the 5th bowler (You'll never guess who I would drop ) Slightly off topic, but what are people's thoughts on the increasingly likely possibility of the Bangladesh Tour resting a whole lot and sending a team captained by Cook and minus Strauss, Pietersen, Collingwood, Anderson et al?
