I hope England use some common sense and let him play all possible games in the Bash. The focus for England's limited over side should be the t20 world cup coming up in a few months and competitive knock out franchise t20 cricket even if it is in conditions totally different to the world cup is fantastic for Rashid and England. They aren't asking him to miss the arm up game game anyhow, just fly out a few days later, not exactly the end of the world really.
I'm a few kms from Wanderers now.
Cook maybe?
Or maybe the two stupidest guys from each squad have to fight to the death in the middle of the Bullring to see who gets KP.
Its Vilas, De Kock is injured.
Surely that would result in Pietersen v Pietersen?
Yeah, Sky Sports have this on breaking news ticker. Knee injury apparently.Its Vilas, De Kock is injured.
Advantage England.
Vilas flown in to play in this test. De Kock injured. Reports...
He was horrid in India, maybe home conditions may bring out the less crap version of himself!
highly unlikely QDK would be opening and keeping
They may have considered it for this test, how do you get Duminy in the side otherwise?
Exactly. I would never open the batting with your keeper in a Test, but if you want to keep your four POCs in the side, that would have been the only option. They're proper screwed now, Van Zyl will have to open. Can only see three POCs playing in this Test.
