    Pakistan Tour of South Africa 2018/19

    They persisted with Bavuma this far so I doubt they’ll ditch De Bruyn in a hurry.

    Pakistan Tour of South Africa 2018/19

    As if Ngidi has been winning matches for SA. He only had one good innings.

    Pakistan Tour of South Africa 2018/19

    Morkel was fantastic in the last 2 years. That’s the best, Morkel ever bowled.

    Pakistan Tour of South Africa 2018/19

    Ngidi doesn’t deserve to get ahead of Oliver in the pecking order. One bad innings doesn’t change anything.

    Your gutsy calls for 2019

    Like Gilly/Dhoni he was saving his best for the final but SA never got there.

    This Era Is Awesome

    This is what happens when NZ win more than 1 test match a series. The era is cursed.

    This Era Is Awesome

    Few years back the leading bowlers were Steyn, Anderson, Broad, Philander, Morkel, Graeme Swan, Roundess...so I don’t see how bowling has improved from previous years. Batting wise, there aren’t many great batsman these days. Kallis, Smith, Amla, AB, KP, Strauss, Cook, Clarke, Hussey, Sanga...

    2018 World Test XI

    No big deal. It’s just an imaginary xi.

    South Africa team selection

    Bit of an overreaction from SA fans to Markram. His first season and there’d be a lot of ups and down. He scored an important 90 vs India and some against Aus. Had his first away and really poor series.. just need a bit of time in the middle to regain confidence.

    Is Kohli better than Ponting?

    He got a hundred, offering lot of chances and made a few ducks in 2008 against SA. I believe it was the series against India that started his decline with all the controversy. Can’t remember maybe it was played right after The ashes.

    Pakistan Tour of South Africa 2018/19

    What about Bavuma? He always gets a pass. QDK has done more with the bat than Bavuma and QDK is also a very good keeper.

    Greg Chappell Vs Rahul Dravid - who was the better test match batsman?

    If he didn’t get dropped for being terrible.

    *Official* India Tour of Australia 2018/19

    Nothing wrong with that. You don’t go to Australia expecting spin friendly pitches the same way you don’t visit SL, expecting fast and bouncy pitches. SL were the better team in those conditions.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Guess Barry and Pollock would have taken it more seriously if they were playing for their country instead of random XIs.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    That was an obvious example. He dropped a lot in the drawn series vs new Zealand too in 2001. Hard to make up excuses given he was in prime in those times.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    He was the best guy to walk in when scorewas like 250/5

    Sorry. Watched ashes 2005.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Can’t imagine. Good/great bowling attacks will easily contain Gilly especially if he had to walk in at 75/5

    DoG's Top 100 Test Bowlers Countdown Thread 100-1

    Great effort DoG. Glad Steyn and Hadlee ended up ahead of Mcgrath.
