    The Best Wicket keeper?

    Bob Taylor was the best, better than Knott, just not as good a batsman, he stood up to the stumps with fast bowler Ole Mortensen bowling really quick. he was a genius behind the sticks, if he had played for Surrey or Middlesex he would have got more recognition,

    *Official* South Africa in Bangladesh: Two Test Series, 21-25 Oct, 29 Oct-2 Nov 2024

    While i applaud the Proteas for their performance i have to say Banga have been abysmal , the Saffers batsmen had so little experience of Asian conditions but looked far more comfortable than the Bangas did, as for the bowling, the figures speak for themselves. big plusses for South...

    Really pleased for de Zorzi and Stubbs, along with Verreynne they have nailed down their spots for an extended run.

    *Official* South Africa in Bangladesh: Two Test Series, 21-25 Oct, 29 Oct-2 Nov 2024

    Good performance by the Proteas, but awful by Banga, they will improve in the 2nd test i have no doubt, ZA one change probably, if fit Bavuma returns, although a disappointing game Piedt will keep his place.

    *Official* South Africa in Bangladesh: Two Test Series, 21-25 Oct, 29 Oct-2 Nov 2024

    I think Van Jaarsveld and Jack both got a raw deal from the selectors. both could have and should have had more tests, although for Jack, it was how and where to fit him in,

    *Official* South Africa in Bangladesh: Two Test Series, 21-25 Oct, 29 Oct-2 Nov 2024

    Bangladesh will be difficult to beat on home soil, they are not minnows any more, the Proteas batting has to score big or they will lose the series,

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    Latham Conway Young Ravindra Mitchell Phillips Blundell Santner/Bracewell Henry Patel ORourke. at some point got to give Sears a go too, pointless sending him to sit on the bench for 5 tests,

    South Africa team selection

    If de Zorzi is ruled out of the Test Series, would Brand be a good call, a genuine opener with useful spin bowling, get Jansen back in to replace Burger, should not have been rested in the first place,

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Should be easier to drop him now, Sears and O Rourke are the future, along with Henry and Jamieson when fit.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Never understood why they chopped 2 games from the Plunkett Shield, you dont learn to build an innings in T20 and ODIs, the domestic calendar imo is wrong in every way,

    All-Time South Africa XIs - A re-run

    Van der Bijl and Le Roux would have taken 100s of test wickets between them , Rice would have had world class all round stats. McEwan and McKenzie would have scored many 100s, playing along side Cook, Richards, Kirsten etc, they would have been a formidable team, the rebel tours and world...
