Correct Frodo, however it need not interfere with the curent calenders as Ireland , Scotland , Netherlands Afganhistan are not playing that much cricket and the extra couldnt hut them either . The local tournaments could also maybe include this team in the current set up for T 20s 1 dayers and then leave the 5 days to the aforementioned.

The quota system works for the England cricket team. They have to include 4 South Africans.

Apparently he is doing pretty well in his provincial matches and if Peterson does not do well in the next test then Tahir may well face Pakistan next month. That is going to be one hell of a series as the Pakstanis have cleaned up their act and are playing some good cricket.

I agree, it's going to be a great series - if the PAKISTANIS can get rid of their travelling blues.

And I would be very disappointed if Tahir gets selected - rather look for a younger spinner (Phangiso?) imo

We need to employ Warne for a 5 year span as part of the academy to teach and coach our up and coming spinners.

SA history shows that we have never had any world class spinners. Must be because we have always had great quick bowlers and kids want to emulate their heros. Besides our present quick bowlers are good enough to bowl most sides out at home and away (exception of Sri Lanka away) that we dont really need a top class spinner to bowl sides out. If we had had a Muril then that would be an entire different story as every pitch in SA would turn heaps.
