They should interview John Wright after this game and ask him how he feels.

But on serious note, how much you blokes miss players from the generation about 10 plus years ago like Flem, Astle, Mc Millan, Cairns, Parore, Nash, Allott and so on.
We may remember that era with slightly rose-tinted glasses at times - fact is there were plenty of times when teams including those players churned out scores like the one Flem quoted.

Tbf most of those guys would walk into the current team we have. The opposition bowling attacks back then were a fair amount better as well.

Just part of his development and getting the opportunity to bat time and impress. Has great potential with the bat.

As for Albie, he is playing for his ODI Protea future I hope! Looked so scratchy.

Australia- Lee, McGrath, Warne, Gillespie
South Africa- Donald, Pollock, Ntini, Klusener, Kallis
Sri Lanka- Murali, Vaas
West Indies- Still had the last years of Ambrose and Walsh
Pakistan- Akram, Younis, Ahktar, Mustaq

India and NZ not much difference and England was worse but still had Gough etc.
