South Africa team selection

Big day ahead for de Zorzi & Verreynne.

Siboto is basically retired & Yusuf hasn't looked threatening.

Bjorn key for the Lions. Bowled it quicker than Simmonds and looked more threatening.

Thank goodness I talk crap most of the time 🤣

So pleasing we get to see a last day pitch and the challenges there. Expectation and pressure for both teams.
Saffas have no killer instinct it seems, wp threw this game away and chance of hattrick of titles this season.

T20 probably WPs weakest format now but it would have been great to carry the momentum in with the double.

What is going to be interesting with it going back to domestic format is how the SA20 shows it up.

Bold played SA20 but if bold red leaving for IPL into the comp.

Boland have a training squad game today before picking their squad. Loads of new names including seamer all-rounders Lehan Botha, Ethan Cunningham and Juanrico Vorster.

I don't understand why he is in direct competition with Verreynne instead of being seen as a batter.
Agreed. Seemingly wanting a 5th bowling option but I hope they aren't too rigid with that thinking. Maybe different games, conditions need different things.

Interesting last season Ethan Cunningham local wp boy had a jnr contract with wp but didn't come off in the t20s.
I reckon Boland could have been in serious trouble if Tuskers weren't so bad. Just have a look at this T20 squad chosen. Full of FC, old, slow and fat players. With all due respect. None of the new names like Wege, Botha, Cunningham, Jacobs, Vorster chosen. The new player Adriaan du Toit is a 30 year-old spinning AR and they have 3 spinners before him.
