England post heavy earnings, crush South Africa & complete a stunning comeback!
A worthy $422 gain by Kallis along with a savvy $355 from Kirsten ensured a crushing victory for the visitors.
Supporting the South African bull market were Hall, gaining 23% ($234) and Boucher 19% ($285).
The English earnings were mainly supplied by Stewart gaining $252, Flintoff with a gain of 18% ($235) & a $208 gain posted by Butcher.
After a whirlwind start to the earnings season, Graeme Smith has had a "cool off" period, moving 2%, posting only a marginal gain of $36, while Gibbs gained only $12.
Many Captains are now forced to rethink their investments, given the current market volatility before the final test starting on Sep 5
Blistering performance by James Kirtley, earning $354, devastates the South African run chase, as England completes a stunning reversal.
Supporting the English earnings were 1st inning heroes Hussain ($246), Butcher ($214) & Anderson ($242), while Pollock gained $427 keeping the South African earning season in a bullish mode.
Mark Boucher gained 34%, increasing his value by $385, while Stewart managed to return $162.
Investors in Dippenaar & Rudolph were in for a rough ride as they lost -$29 & -$15 respectively
South Africa crushes England behind a bullish Smith!
South Africa completed a easy innings victory behind impressive performance from Smith & Ntini.
Smith posted record earnings, gaining $659, to see his value increase by 69%, while Ntini gained $400, to see his valu sky rocket by 40%.
Kisten posted a sedate $273 agin, while the lone earnings result for England came from Flintoff, who posted a 28% increase to earn a sentimental $273.
Market might see some major selling in Alec Stewart, after a shocking earnings display, which saw him post the only negative earnings of the match.(-$38)
South African captain blasted an early warning to the market, with a handsome performance, that would have gained him $737 for the match. Following him was Vaughan & Gibbs with a theoretical gain of $398 & $388 respectively.
If Smith continues his current form, he would certainly be grossly undervalued @$950, making a mockery of his valuation and also making him a VERY ATTRACTIVE BUY on everyone's portfolio.
Market has been warned and the real earnings will begin on July 31st.
