Makhaya Ntini claims he was dumped unfairly out of the SA Test side

You hear Afrikaans over the stump mic because the players speak Afrikaans to each other so their opponents won't understand what they're saying to each other.

Won't make sense if they don't understand themselves, right?

Speaking/understanding a few cricket-related words doesn't mean you speak the language. Especially when it's part of a team tactic, so you'd invest the effort for that but not much else.

If you understand and speak German, does that automatically make you a German?

Most white South Africans are pretty fluent in both languages, and can certainly understand both.

Not what I meant.....

That was my point.............

Anyway, silly discussion. My fault, I guess.
