I stopped watching for about a week and they got through about 8 overs. I guess missing hardly any cricket is…the good part of slow overrates?

I wondered what you'd complain about given the scoring rate.

Did you actually wonder or was there just one obviously good thing and one obviously bad thing

SA bowler NZ domestic equivalents:
Paterson: Jesse Ryder, maybe a bit of Kieran Noema Barnett
Olivier: Michael Rae (grips ball hard, jerky action)
Moreki: struggled with this one but have arbitrarily decided it's James Baker
De Swardt: Angus McKenzie (slow)
Any better matches?

Did South Africa deliberately pick an attack of what they imagined NZ bowlers to be?

Well most Plunket Shield attacks are already a quarter South African so..

Yeah but I always assumed the South African quarter would be angry and somewhat pacey

Not enough people of colour playing in NZ for South African expats to really find that anger.

Yeah completely agree, they've made it difficult and have only been let down by catching.

Look on the bright side South Africa, if Nicholls was playing you'd have already dropped him 5-6 times by now.

Can't help comparing his record to Tickner's myself.

Absolutely disgraceful fielding, damn Ravindra really got the perfect match to debut.

Should be 160/4. Tbh this is a very professional effort from guys SA wouldn't normally be interested in. The system over there is still producing very solid cricketers to fill domestic squads behind the superstars.
It's just the catching has been a bit domestic as well unfortunately.

It was always going to be the problem. Prolonged and varied threat with our bowling. Can only really get wickets with nibble and or discipline. Barring Sipamla (who would be in NZL) these guys were all signed in the SA20 but a few haven't played with injury.
