Shebeen Posted January 17, 2018 Share Ngidi you biscuit. Poor selectors when Steyn is fit againhttp://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;debut_or_last=1;filter=advanced;orderby=bbi;team=3;template=results;type=bowling Very good problem to have. Steyn and morkel are at the end of their careers. future is looking bright indeed. Piston ZA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted January 17, 2018 Share another unsung hero of the cricket for me is Firdose Moonda @ espn cricinfo. She's the SA correspondant, has ALL the eyes of bosses and other indian journalists here and has been churning out some excellent pieces all series. http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;debut_or_last=1;filter=advanced;orderby=bbi;team=3;template=results;type=bowling GLuvsMtb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe De Beer Posted January 17, 2018 Share And with that, what’s the team for the next game? Presumably a fast pitch so keep it unchanged? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably a fast pitch so keep it unchanged?Markram is apparently struggling with a niggle, so Cook may possibly come in for him. We can also play the extra batsman and give Morkel / Vern / Maharaj a rest. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted January 18, 2018 Share Marais erasmus wins umpire award, again. but remains our only test level umpire https://www.icc-cricket.com/news/596794 Markram is apparently struggling with a niggle, so Cook may possibly come in for him.

It's 4 test matches in a month, but we seem to have enough bowlers currently to rotate/cover injuries. In both Cape town and Centurion we have not had the pitch/conditions our way yet still won. If there's some pace in wanderers we should really blow them away easily. The batting really needs improvement. Currently we're playing a batsman light, and this won't work long term if QdK doesn't get runs.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro With 5 bowlers none of them are being bowled into the ground especially if one get's injured so if we want to rest a bowler it would make sense to bring in Morris or Phehlukwayo to share the load. Also building for the future it would be nice to give Bavuma a game if Markram is injured since he is already in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would not be fair for Bavuma to be expected to cover opening bat as cover for Elgar and Markram. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ProCook is not in the squad, I think his career is done before it really got started. Time was always against him. Only got 2 openers in the squad. Would they slot Temba or Theunis in, like they have with middle order batsmen before with not much success? Not sure who the next best opener in line is, the Sunfoil Series was played earlier in the season but a massive amount of games were rain affected so not much cricket was had. (imagine if played their fielding coach?!) GLuvsMtb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted January 18, 2018 Share good to see that Bavuma got some game time in 1Day Cup yesterday, even though the test was still on. he got 65. JPD is in fine form with the bat, topping the batting runs and averages. and he helped himself to a 37run over too 36.66Leie to Duminy, SIX, finishes it in fine style, once more into the oaks for a bonus point win, 37 off the over36.65nbLeie to Duminy, (no ball) FOUR, drives thru extra cover to bring the required runs down to 136.52Leie to Duminy, 2 runs,36.46Leie to Duminy, SIX, once again sails onto the grass banks under the oaks36.36Leie to Duminy, SIX, slog sweep into the oaks once more and brings up his 50 off 33 balls36.26Leie to Duminy, SIX, straight drive over the umpire and onto the sitescreen36.16Leie to Duminy, SIX, slog sweep into the oaks once more, Duminy keen to finish this quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
