Cricket season

Ashes starts 16 JUNE - just fear the white ball commentary will spill over to test cricket - if I have to listen to one more "HUGE WICKET" garbage I will puke - LESS IS MORE - hope someone will tell the morons that

don't think England will win one test in the series

Heath Streak RIP

Ngidi, very lucky to make the squad.

100% he is over weight and out of form although I suspect that he won’t be starter in India

This is the starting XI tomorrow against Australia. This is the best line up for our World Cup matches but Nortje to replace Ngidi. If its a spinners pitch in India, then one of the quicks to make way for Shamsi. Coetzee needs to be in the side. We do not have a genuine allrounder but Coetzee can muscle the ball.

@naresh...don't forget the impact of CSA's "quotas" / " targets"...

Interest article I found from about a year ago and likely still applicable today...Rabada picks himself but one of Bavuma and Ngidi must be picked irrespective of form and that creates other balance / form issues in the team...

I hope we do well but I don't care anymore when social engineering comes before playing to win...at that level, it's the only thing that really matters...

Bavuma brilliant knock. Good to see Maharaj playing again after doing his ankle when celebrating a wicket.

SA might as well stay at home as they have no chance of even making the super 6 at the WC. The spinners of Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka will bamboozle them.
