Just wait, it could just be a one off fluke.First time I've seen halba actually making some sense

Reminds me of a recent Associate JAMODI where they couldn't give out on an attempted run out because the square leg umpire was obstructing the side on view of the crease.Its not supposed to matter. I think Wilson went with the older interpretation but there has been a recent rule change. The soft signal is only supposed to be taken into account if they dont get the right camera angles or if there are technical glitches and you dont get the replays. That sort of thing. As long as you get a reasonable amount of angles, the 3rd umpire is basically expected to make their own call.
The rule change is good. Just think Wilson ****ed up interpreting it properly.
Jansen and Nortje can definitely hold their heads up high after this tour. Jansen hasn't taken the poles and ran out of gas, but he's always put in a shift and looked threatening at various sides, certainly more than any of the batsmen or more experienced bowlers (again, Nortje aside) have.Still has nosebleeds at 7,but no one can falter the way he has taken the job on. Plays a few rash shots here and there but gives it his all.
It was also stupid why Elgar almost never uses him with the new ball when it was clear from the Ind-SA series that it is his best skill.Jansen and Nortje can definitely hold their heads up high after this tour.

He bowled behind Ngidi a lot of the time too, and the latter was genuinely terrible from the most partIt was also stupid why Elgar almost never uses him with the new ball when it was clear from the Ind-SA series that it is his best skill.
Elgar doesn't seem to be on the ball in general tbh.It was also stupid why Elgar almost never uses him with the new ball when it was clear from the Ind-SA series that it is his best skill.
Ngidi was the difference between India and RSA in that series in RSA earlier this year, as the 3rd seamer. And Jansen took the newball then.He bowled behind Ngidi a lot of the time too, and the latter was genuinely terrible from the most part
yeah I was surprised he performed like he did. Expected much more.Ngidi was the difference between India and RSA in that series in RSA earlier this year, as the 3rd seamer. And Jansen took the newball then.
That India series it was the Proteas batting that surprisingly helped, with Petersen looking very assured.Ngidi was the difference between India and RSA in that series in RSA earlier this year, as the 3rd seamer. And Jansen took the newball then.
I think he was injured. But they did play 4 seamers and Ngidi was always first change after Rabada and Jansen. Dunno what made them reconsider this.yeah I was surprised he performed like he did. Expected much more.
Did they not play Nortje that series?
strange they are so poor down under. village. same ball is used as in SAF- kookaburra.I think he was injured. But they did play 4 seamers and Ngidi was always first change after Rabada and Jansen. Dunno what made them reconsider this.
Criticism for the SA team is warranted, but I'd advise you against making comments like this unless you understand how these racial groupings are done in SA.he is technically a 'coloured' player despite being of very fair skinned indian origin
I don't think there is anything at all that moron actually does understand. Should have been given his marching orders long agoCriticism for the SA team is warranted, but I'd advise you against making comments like this unless you understand how these racial groupings are done in SA.
EDIT: halba, not Maharaj if it wasn't clear
Looking at today's scorecard, perhaps Zondo is meeting the quota of having at least one bloke who knows which end of the bat to hold.Another quota filling selection. others include Zondo .........
His 81 runs across 5 innings is the third highest aggregate among these South African tourists...Looking at today's scorecard, perhaps Zondo is meeting the quota of having at least one bloke who knows which end of the bat to hold.
Not the first time he's top-scored in this series iirc.
Odds of getting a result with 10 less minutes wouldn't have changed.Only if you view individual milestones as being more important than trying to win the game.
