With those 3 certain to play & Philander, Ngidi, Nortje out I wonder if they will call another quick up.

Nortje could be kicking himself, could have been a great opportunity for him.


They have played Andile before? Morris would be favourite. I don't really want to watch Hendricks hair for 4 days.

He's always been the fourth/fifth seamer, so if he were to come into the side it would more likely be as an allrounder in place of a batsmen rather than replacing one of the frontline bowlers.

Paterson also has had a decent run of late and back bowling in the 140's as an outside consideration. Hendricks would complete our attack fantastically if he can get some consistency - a left-arm medium-fast swing bowler ticks a lot of boxes!

Neil Brand come into SA Inv squad to replace Simon Khomari (called up to Cobras squad)

Surely Ruben Trumpelmann isn't opening because that would be embarrassing.

SA-XI 31/0 (13.1 ov, N Brand 14*, R Trumpelmann 17*, Faheem Ashraf 0/0) - Live | Match Summary | ESPNCricinfo

Other things of note. Both Bavuma and de Bruyn aren't playing the round 4-day cricket starting today with injuries.

Knights down to bare bones so Olivier allowed to play for Knights and already got 1 SA opener out and supposedly is unplayable at the moment from the venue.

Left-arm swing bowler. No way is he opening the batting. I think it is meant to be Josh Richards. Thought I would pop on to Pak Passion :D They losing their **** that an opener with a previous best of 23 has scored more already.

From Stuart Hess (who is at the Wanderers but knows someone in Bloem)

Also, Duanne Olivier is playing in Bloem against the Titans. Just chatted to someone at that game, and he's not sure how Olivier is playing - given Ottis Gibson said the quicks must rest this week - except the Knights apparently have no seamers.

Also Olivier then proceeded to hit both Markram and Elgar in one over requiring both to receive medical attention. So Duanne is doing a lot down in Bloem. Unplayable according to witnesses.

Well hash's form hasn't improved.

This is starting to become a bit of a concern. It would obviously be a huge call to drop him, but it seems to becoming more and more apparent that he's nearing the end of his international career. And while there are sentimental reasons to give him one last hurrah at the World Cup, you can't pick players based on sentimentality.

Olivier gets elgar for 37. Guess someone didn't give duanne the script that we wanted deano and aiden to get scores to prepare for the test.
