Faf isn't a great ODI player yet. But yes, Taskin will be a blow.

Fwiw

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

interesting. good stuff kiwivictor

my prediction (considering conditions) :

faf to score most amount of runs/centuries
abbott to take most wickets;

tamim to score most amount of runs/centuries
mustafiz to take most wickets

Results 2-1 to Saf

Everytime we are in the subcontinent south africa "will struggle against spin"... Ask pakistan how well that works out. Then again if we win it is only because the pitch was flat.

 

[cnerd123]

Soumya is such a gem

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

another disappointing performance in t20 by bd. horrible at this format of the game now for years. SA already made a good judgement of the conditions.

 

[SeamUp]

Glad Leie took his chance. Still not convinced about Phangiso.

But it is good to see so many spin options for once getting chances here, in the 'A' squad or not even in any SA squad this winter.

Talukdar seems like the sort of name you'd expect to find on a Computer video game that doesn't have the money to use real names.

Talukdar seems like the sort of name you'd expect to find on a Computer video game that doesn't have the money to use real names.

It's a relatively common surname in Bengal (not as common as Ganguly or Chatterjee or Sarkar though).
