Because you want a fast scoring Miller than the Alviros at No.6 or 7.Alviro's really done well as an opener....
Why is he not in the ODI side ahead of someone like David Miller?
Well when we beat them in the summer it felt hollow as it wasn't a full strength team and then the extra stuff in the last test made it even worse.Feel for South Africa here tbh, they could put in the performances of their lives and I'm not sure if anyone would really care, given the state of Pakistani cricket atm.
Wow, Boucher's only 33??
That guy seems to have been around forever.
Oh, and apparantly Kallis has more test runs and test wickets than the entire Pakistan team combined. Holy ****.
I've just checked.
Probably more catches too.
Wow...To be precise,
Kallis Runs : 11,176
Pakistan Team Runs : 10,363
Kallis 100s : 35
Pakistan Team 100s : 25
Kallis Wickets : 266
Pakistan Team Wickets : 169
Kallis Catches : 158
Pakistan Team Catches : 148
So its Jacques KING Kallis > Entire Pakistan Team
Would have been so good to see Amir, Asif and Gul having a go at this SA batting lineup.ball is swinging and i am already missing Aamer and Asif.
Cricinfo notes that Kallis was visibly annoyed after hitting an aerial boundary (well clear of a fielder). That man is scary.
Anyway, enough circle jerking.
Called it.personally I've never been convinced by Rehman. Perhaps if Hafeez is there, it'd make sense to play Tanvir Ahmed as a third seamer?
