**Official** South Africa in Australia T20s/ODIs Tour 2025

Well that was skinny. I'm kind of curious to hear Julian commentate just to sample how bad it is.
Like what was said before, he kept on saying things like "Ooh thats just over the fielder" as it gets smashed out the ground. It was as bad as those "Did that carry" lines that is used to death

Im sure Brendon Julian was on comms for Supersport when the infamous situation at Newlands happened...

I think he was the guy who chimed in with “looks like a glasses case” or something. Should have just kept quiet even then 😅

1.Makram (C)?

3.lhuan/reeza/? (Rassie could bat here if Lhuan struggles).
4. Brevis
5. Stubbs
6. Miller
7. Bosch
8. Jansen
9. Spinner
10. Rabada
11. Mahpaka

I’d have Stubbs at 3 and move the rest down one each but that’s what I’d go for. If they want to #batdeep they need to commit to Linde because I don’t think Muths in this format contributes enough with the bat to outweigh Keshav being in.

There is a case for test selection. I think South Africa's next test series are away Pakistan and away India, and Brevis is a better player of spin than some of the regulars. I was going to say the incumbents, but Brevis played in South Africa's last two test matches. He averages 40+ in FC cricket. He ain’t no Fraser-McGurk.

Yes, that was weird. I only caught parts of the series but there were sixes from David and Brevis that instantly off the bat you knew were absolute monsters, out of the ground stuff, where he was questioning if the fielder has a chance. Same with Maxwell hitting the winning runs yesterday, he was questioning that when you knew as soon as he hit it that was the game.

I think that was aimed at the poster rather than the content of the post
