*Official* Australia vs South Africa -2022/3

[Stefan9]

Are there better options back in RSA?

I mean like young guys. Also is there a possibility for Brevis eventually or he is too focused on the short forms. Still haven't played a fc game I see

There are younger players who could be picked and backed. This should have happened awhile ago and instead of picking the likes of van der dussen, erwee and zondo.

Channel 7 has offered to drop the legal proceedings in turn for keeping the rights next cycle. You just know the dumb c***s at CA are going to stick with Fox/Seven.

In fairness we don’t know just how much FTA cricket the 10 deal will have. If the ODI’s remain on Pay TV then the status quo is better.

If 10 is the only winner of the deal, then wont it all be on FTA?

Some will be on Paramount+ as CBS owns Ten

Yeah that'd be a disaster.

WTH was that? Green is pretty good gully fielder, it should be said.

 

[StephenZA]

I know there are genuinely big issues with it, but it still seems kinda weird that 2 wickets to genuinely unplayable balls has kickstarted this chat about SA’s batting

No years of poor selection policy started this discussion that has been ongoing for the last 3/4 years… just most non-SA supporters are unaware and/or uninterested in existence until now.

At this stage I feel like a broken record having watched and said the same thing series after series…

 

[Spark]

Was he trying to leave that?

 

[Spark]

Also I know this SA batting lineup is pretty bad but we shouldn't be talking about a side putting up 220 and having a shout of winning by an innings. That just shouldn't be plausible.

EDIT: And you can substitute in "this pitch is pretty green" for "SA batting lineup is pretty bad"; both factors need consideration.

 

[Starfighter]

Both quota picks now at the crease.

Nearly separated immediately too.

 

[Spark]

I mean with half decent bowling I don't see how you can score runs here let alone survive.

they better not ****ing do this or we march on jolimont lol

Shouldn't that be the other way around?

Remember Ahmedabad D/N Test between India and England?

It seems harder today. It was alright yesterday tbh. Especially when Head and Smith were going

 

[ataraxia]

Hmm this guy Green's an okay fielder

 

[social]

Have seen plenty of fielders allow the umpires to make the decision on half volleys like that one

 

[Spark]

Remember Ahmedabad D/N Test between India and England?

Well yeah I was pretty critical of that pitch too. I'm not impressed by this, we don't need a pitch this bowler friendly to know that this lot can bowl.

It's faster off the deck for sure, much more significant seam movement.

 

[Prince EWS]

Runs!
