***Official*** England in South Africa 2015/16

I hope rabada does well because I was so disappointed that mfuneko ngam was unable to get to his full potential due to injury. I hope rabada continues what should have been his legacy.

 

[Pratters]

Rabada impressed me. I am sure he will do well in the long run. Has a nice action and can bowl at a fair pace as well.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Yeah think Rabada will do well and I'm excited about him as a prospect. But I want to watch Steyn dammit.

Just carries on the Steyn misery against England. He always seems to be off form, injured or coming back from injury when they play us. Guess we have dropped lucky in that respect.

50 wickets @ 31 against us. Woeful in comparison to his overall record.

Then how come they've only beaten Australia once (2012-13 doesn't count) in the entire time I've been watching cricket. And never in South Africa.


just sayin

i'm talking for entertainment value lol i'm australian

 

[Compton]

I see South Africa have brought Graeme Smith in to help the batsmen for the rest of the series.

They'd be as well asking him to open the batting, seeing as he's around.

What is the connection between Ngam and Rabada? I'm really looking forward to this second Test, I'd like to see Bavuma and de Kock do well

could be that they're coloured players? idk

Guys I had a dream that Salamuddin called South Africa 06-15 one of the 'great' teams up there with vintage Windies and Australia

Imagine if he'd actually written that

Not losing an away series for nine years is pretty damn good. Even the vintage Australia (95-2008) never managed more than 4 years without being beaten in an away series.

 

[Stace]

Not really

It does, when Root can only hit Morkel for 6's on his way to a hundred he wont receive as many ranking points to get back his rightful place of no.1 Test batsman in the world.

Skewed a little by his debut series though.

Hardus Viljoen called in as cover for injured Abbott | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo

From this article it seems that hardus viljoen was on the verge of going to new zeeland.

 

[Kippax]

Yeah back in April in the NZ domestic thread we were leaning towards that being a bit of a ruse to get a better contract out of the Lions, which is exactly what happened in the end.

Any NZ posters who want to watch this on YT tonight, let me know with a VM.

England batting.

 

[Kippax]

Oh Morris is in rather than Hardus.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Peeps in India, which channel is broadcasting this? Haven't found it on Star sports 1-4, Ten cricket... Watched the first game on a ****ty stream, and I have a TV this weekend so was hoping to watch it properly.

 

[Kippax]

Should be on Ten Cricket or Ten Sports for you.

Guess I'll just watch the stream then. Tensports is showing some cycling **** and tencricket some old lame ODI.

At the risk of asking silly questions.....

God Save the Queen? I figured anyone around the world was done playing the Anglo-Scottish hymne? They don't do so in England, right?
