You don’t have to like someone, to respect what they do.
And I don’t like Graeme Smith.
Not even a little bit.
I think in the past he has made runs against minnows, and occasionally England, and has been praised for good captaincy when I have seen none.
Having been in England for their summer it was hard not to see his good work.
Not as a captain, still rubbish.
But as a batsman.
He saved a match with one hundred, and then with another won a test.
You can’t argue with that.
Well you can.
Because it was pre KP England, but still, it was pretty damn good.
Now he has done it again.
This time he may not have seen it through.
But this one still feels better.
The last chase was less than 300 and he got half, this was over 400 and he has set them up.
Australia may still win.
But if they do, Graeme sure gave them a scare and a half.
And if South Africa win they can blame that big bastard for getting them over the line.
