Disappointing SA batting first.

Great touch with the Benaud coin for the toss. Quality.

Be very interesting to see how Shamsi goes. The last SA wrist spinner to play here didn't go too brilliantly.

Both teams now have a long tail partly due to the changes done. How times have changed. Earlier SA and Australia teams had strong lower order/tail while India/England tail was pretty weak. Now it is the opposite.

@ Blocky. Half of them haven't played a game. How would we know?

Can't be as bad as the 1985 6th test Ashes line up:
