South Africa - most over-rated team?

Sounds like another chav South African we all know.
Well if you are talking about KP then I did a poor job of explaining myself as they are very different.

Duminy is fluid and is a pleasure to watch and you would always think he looks like a quality player.

KP struggled to make his mark because his technique is not orthodox but he has succeded due to knowing what works for him and through force of personality.

Duminy looks great but flatters to deceive whereas KP was held back due to looking awkward at the crease and maximises his ability.

Players like Duminy will always go far because coaches love to watch them. In all sports a lot of how far you go comes down to how you look (Im not talking race here) rather than how you perform.
