Looking forward to this. Obviously more so for the Tests but so glad to see Linde back. Definitely the best batter from all the spinners we have available.

Not even a day's break between this and SA's previous test series makes the LO series less exciting than they should be. Looking forward to the tests though and glad to see Linde back.

Shaheen being rested for tests cause of workload management is hilarious. Bowl all the time on unhelpful pitches then a tour with great pitches for fast bowlers come and you get told to rest.

Shaheen and naseem dont have fitness to bowl 20plus overs a day. They are more suited to bowl 4 overs in t20 matches

They have seamers who know how to pick up test wickets , Abbas and Shahzad have brilliant records in test cricket will be a handful

Abbas was awful last time he played in SA and shahzad has only played 3 tests.

Anyway their biggest issue isn't bowling its their batsmen have never been able to score runs on SA pitches. Their last effort on bouncy tracks in aus in 2023 doesn't suggest anything has changed either when they get faced with those type of wickets.

Ferreira will play for Breetzke I think. Unless the latter left PE earlier. Which might have been smart. As they could have used Muthusamy if there was a batting injury.

I hope we are prepared for those two spinners who wrecked the Dodgers earlier this year.
Although I am sure Cullinan prepared hard for Warne and we know the outcome :laugh:

We haven't faced them yet so they aren't in our heads like warnie was in Daryl's. We still got a chance.
