Conrad has had way too many inconsistencies in selection, Muthusamy was randomly chosen at No.7 then discarded , Jansen was the new no.7 , then De Swardt was the no.7 and actually does okay with the 2 tests he gets but gets dropped..Ha! It's like we've gone the opposite way after having Jansen at 7 when we felt like we went in with a batsman light.
According to cricinfo Rickleton is keeping. Ofc that could be wrong but if they're right I can't say I'm a fan of a specialist #7 bat when good allrounders are availableStill feel Verreynne deserves some lee-way too. He is a better gloveman than Rickelton. Many are calling for Rickelton to replace him as wk bit I like the fact both are playing here.
BBC has verrynne as keeper. hope someone knows.According to cricinfo Rickleton is keeping. Ofc that could be wrong but if they're right I can't say I'm a fan of a specialist #7 bat when good allrounders are available
Very optimistic considering that this is Stubbs first official red ball game since February..BBC has verrynne as keeper. hope someone knows.
Stubbs at no3 does seem a bit optimistic, i guess it was bat there or not play. For windies fairly tight bowling
in the absence of the joseph twins.
Scary to think that tour was over a year ago, so in about 14 months since that knock he's had zero opportunity to bat at no.3 before today, these players have their work cut out for them with such a lack of preparation.He scored his SA A hundred in Sri Lanka at 3 too.
Personally would go Bavuma 3, Bedingham 4 & let Stubbs ease in but maybe this has been lined up for a while & Conrad is just genuinely backing him there for long-term planning & considering we play such little test cricket. He was talking more about Stubbs' psyche being prepared for the challenge.
Seales is very impressive, I would love to have him in our side, lots of potential..Seales! You beauty. That was smart bowling to a field set.
You guys have a lot of impressive pacers. Seales fits that mold too.Seales is very impressive, I would love to have him in our side, lots of potential..
He has a very good bowling action and an excellent follow through similar to Dale Steyn..You guys have a lot of impressive pacers. Seales fits that mold too.
I read an article about him where he said he re-evaluated his life after he was in a bad car accident. Cricket is a part of his life, not his whole life kinda mindset. He has a really carefree style of batting though. Love to watch it!Bedingham is his own worst enemy, he's got that KP syndrome where he kind of thinks he is too good to get out playing these Hollywood shots ..
Yeah he's brilliant, it's a shame he had to wait so long to play for SA but better late than never ..Want to see him in the odi side aswellI read an article about him where he said he re-evaluated his life after he was in a bad car accident.
