*** Official *** South African Domestic Season 2019/20

Tiaan van Vuuren seems to have something about him. Be nice if he could add an extra yard of pace.

Any one else stand out ? Haven't been able to watch today.

Roelofsen looked alright. Frylinck stood out as always! Qeshile should not be playing the T20 stuff yet. 2 games dominated by one team early. Nothing really exciting.

Watched the highlights. There is a lot to like about Roelofsen. Must focus on the batting and lose the gloves possibly.

Talking of van Vuuren - another young SA u19 playet in Michael Booth also has a bit about him. No chance of him going back to Zimbabwe.

We talking about these KZN players but they one province who only gets the 1 team so I wonder how that will effect things. 1 or 2 players may have to say if I want to further my career I may have to leave.

Nice from Easterns, really good game in the end. Much better than the semis. Quality innings from both Marshall and Roelofsen.

With Northerns not producing players near the ability of their golden era it is no surprise the Titans were using players from Easterns.

Great memories or maybe not say great but under Ray Jennings back in the day they competed with the big boys. Andrew Hall, Dereck Crookes, Zander de Bruyn, Pierre de Bruyn, Albie Morkel & Andre Nel big behind it.

As a WP supporter I will never forget this Super Sport Series Final. Some quality players.

Ant Botha moved to play in England. Think he is assistant at Notts now.

That WP top 5 is quite something

Always created issues when the SA boys came back but I think we all miss that now with our domestic cricket. International stars playing a lot of domestic 4-day cricket.

HD Ackerman left WP at the end of that season & Puttick had to be left out too. No Kallis on top of it. Crazy batting depth.

It's insane depth. Pretty much the South African equivalent of 90's NSW at full strength

So I just saw that the 3-day provincial competition starts next week, and then noticed that the 1-day match between the provinces happens the day after the the 3-day match? Is this normal or is this a new idea to save money?

Always happened.

I wonder how contracting is going to go.

Take Qeshile. Border boy but does he feel better off at a test ground with Eastern Province ?

List A - everyone will play each other ? FC there will be 2 divisions but how do you split ?

They have finally gave Walters his marching orders. About time.

Definitely a long time coming.

The signs were there last season. Not sure how good Glenton Stuurman is but he put the numbers down and looks like he is replacing him.

How dare you. I recall us having a Test in East London against India in about 2002...

 

[StephenZA]

Looks a good squad overall. Unfortunately can see losing some of the better players quickly to the Proteas sooner rather than later.

There is the problem. If we gonna have Tests out in East London then we make it the English and Aussies.

Nice and all to big it up being against India but it was the Bangers wasn't it....

Think Biff got his first test double in that game.

Definitely a squad that has a mix of guys seriously pushing for higher honours and some of the best young talent in the country.

Jonkie Jonker must have had a 2 year contract to still have one.

Was never a fan on any level... maybe he can do a job at 5/6 in the LO team this year, but won't hold my breath.
