A photo on facebook says that he broke the record for the longest measured 6. Apparently he hit this one 158 metres. No way to verify though

Obviously more to him than I give him credit for
He's a left armed Kyle Mills. He's never going to catch your eye ripping apart a team, but up-front he always does just enough with it to cause trouble and get a few scalps.

Mills gets much more movement than Lopsy.

I've definitely seen Tsotsobe get Mills-level swing with the white ball on occasion. Not often, though.

He's more Bracken. He has 3 types of slower balls and he verifies his pace.

No. He has a chip build in his head which verifies the speed of every single delivery.

Lobsy has a strike rate of 27.99. The 3rd best of all time for 50wickets or more. He goes for less then 5 an over. Since his injury return he has not returned to form yet.

de Kock rose to the challenge again last night, 73 off 40 balls. Why haven't they fully recognised this blossoming talent? Seems odd they have been keeping players around the squad like Ontong who never were and never will be instead of banking on the blossoming skills of de Kock,

He's too young to heap pressure on at this stage. We can afford to ease him in; why not?
