Rabada looks talented with the bat too.**** this bloke looks like a genuine bat
Put him in the top 6
The problem with Maharaj is that he only appears to have one way of playing. He could definitely do with being a bit more judicious in his choice of shots.No matter what happens next have a look at the variety of these 3 4s! This boytjie can play.
You know you are having a bad series when you have to give yourself a thumbs-up for TV for getting one right, especially when he hit the ball, it was missing the stumps and he was halfway down the pitch.Dharmasena looked so happy to finally get one right
True but relativly easy to fix.The problem with Maharaj is that he only appears to have one way of playing. He could definitely do with being a bit more judicious in his choice of shots.
Rabada being made the nightwatchman looks a very under-rated captaincy move in hindsight. Not only did he give South Africa nice runs, he also ate up some key overs and allowed the tail to come out at a better position than what they otherwise would've IMO.These runs from Rabada/Philander/Maharaj more or less make up the difference at this point.
Under-rated that there are 5 days in test cricket anymore and keeping bowling attacks out in the field to toil.None of this would have happened if Elgar and Amla hadn't batted the entire second session yesterday
