Well ive always like AB opening, don't know why they ever moved him down the order. Id have Smithy, AB and then Mac!!
AB couldn't buy a run while opening last year, kept edging it. I like him lower down, he seem to bat quite well with the tail.

50 up, and nice to see another decent opening partnership. I hope Gibbs doesn't come back for the next match.

Although I don't know who should.
Earlier on the TV had Pollock coming in for Steyn and Boeta replacing McKenzie for the Durban test. I couldn't catch whether it was the commentators' opinion or some sort of official announcement.

Terrible terrible stuff here from the bowlers. Credit to the Saffies for putting the bad balls away, but it seems like they're getting one or two every over.

Well if thats the case, what was the point of McKenzie playing in this test!
As it has been said, McKenzie got injured during the test. He probably would have played in the third test if it wasn't for the calf strain he picked up.

AB gone, self-destructed.

He's injured. They were discussing possible replacements if he didn't recover for the next match.
Considering the third test is next week and McKenzie is out for the next four to six weeks, one suspects South Africa will need a replacement…

Gibbs was meant to be playing for the Cobra’s next week but presumably he will comeback straight away for McKenzie.
