    Apparently Stokes was offered the most of any player outside the IPL. £800 000 or R18.8 mil. Not that for 4 weeks of work. https://x.com/LawrenceBailey0/status/1814347075905073320?s=19

    South Africa team selection

    Presume harmer is ineligible due to not playing any domestic SA 4 day cricket last season. Unsure whether it was his or skukri's call to end his international return. I doubt paterson plays ahead of the others in the squad. Presume nortje hasn't made himself available for test cricket. Will...

    The FINAL- South Africa vs India (D), Kensington Oval, Barbados-- June 29th

    SA's lack of depth in batting came home to roast. From 8-11 they are unable to go anything resembling an ok strikerate.
