That would require some selectorial competence and consistency. I think we can now tell that left the building along with Bruce Edgar.

Was there ever one? I can only think of the NZ flag thread or NZ John Key resigns thread.

There was also a 2014 election thread. Could just start a 2017 equivalent.

Yeah absolutely. I don't have any issue with the idea that Jeets might be a better ODI bowler than Sodhi, particularly if the focus is on the CT.. but if this is the case now it should've been the case for the last few months as well. Sodhi has actually bowled really well in all his limited overs internationals lately so it's harsh as **** to drop him now.

Yes, were they kinda hoping Sodhi would just bowl badling and they could drop him, or does Patel's selection arise from recent thought bubble because they hadn't thought things through in the first place? Neither is a very impressive approach.
Very much agree that Sodhi has bowled well. We are likely overestimating the importance of Jeets having prior experience in the UK too.

Pretty hilarious to hear King saying that there was no external pressure on her to stand down.

Yes another fine knock from Duminy.
South Africa's batsmen this series having a problem converting their starts - highest score 85 to ABDV and there's been lots of 30s, 40s, 50s ,60s that then leave the lower order a fair amount of work to do.

I mean, if it's a raging turner a finger-spinner is generally better than a wrist spinner, as the theory goes.
But Sodhi has been good in LOs.
