Can we keep this in a tour thread.... we don't need a play by play in this thread.

Lovely Wisden piece with Simon Harmer. https://www.wisden.com/stories/county-cricket/simon-harmer-magazine-county-was-about-opportunity
Since he started domestically he became a favourite of mine watching how he plays the game and speaks about it. Honest and open there and disappointment about not being able to test himself against the best.

There will be different latitudes given to Smuts over somebody like say Philander. Rightly or wrongly, just they way it will be. Would not be surprised if each player has his own minimum rather than a team minimum to meet.

Supposedly Bavuma was on a intravenous drip.I was thinking the same thing. It worked.
Klaasen has had a good series.

Hopefully not to serious? Maybe a bit to much of the local cuisine?
Dendarii
International Debutant
It might not be because of his all round ability (although that obviously helps his selection chances). Maybe they've spotted something about him and decided to bring him into the mix sooner or later. After all, they did that with Steyn and Rabada and that's paid dividends. Although it didn't work with Parnell, so they do need to manage Jansen carefully.

Lizel Lee of the ladies team also got pinged for being unfit, although she got back in the team.
Is it being unfit or on the chubby side

It is a tough one as we don't know.
I've always seen JJ make a good effort in the field and he has good hands domestically despite being chubby. But he is no Smith/Kallis.
Take Tahir. Not the greatest athlete but made an effort and clear number one limited overs spinner.
Shamsi. Not kicked on as a bowler even if never got a run in the side and always shown up in the field. Big period coming up for him. Not sure if we can carry spinners who can't bat and can't field unless they are really really good.
Someone like Vern seems to always pick up niggling injuries. Is that diet or condition ? He always makes an effort though in the field.
Lots of things to "weigh" up.
