    *Official* South African tour of England and Ireland 2022

    Strongest batting xi for sure... Mulder hasn't had as good a time with the ball in County but if he keeps a tight off stump line he could create pressure.

    IPL selections are always based on hype and marketing factors...

    South Africa team selection

    Parnell 5/30 in his last t20i outing. Only South Africans would consider that underperforming... And his hitting in domestic t20s, particularly the 80* off 29 vs knights, is just gravy..

    South African Domestic 2022/23

    Most excited to see how Mpongwana. Beyers Swanepoel & Codi Yusuf (who was remarkably effective for a seamer of his frame) fare... And if E Can't find any schedules. I really hope (but don't expect) they cancel one of the other T20 competitions because 3 would be a cruel joke. Where are Rilee...

    Keep them out there and make Stokes toil... Best outcome for us for the series...

    Well played Crawley! Shaping up to be a great match... Wish I wasn't at work!

    Will likely be Harmer, but they're both 8s...

    Surprised Potts got the axe not Broad. At some point England have to play for the future?

    At least it's not like England 89 where they played the entire county championship over the course of one test series...

    There were so many careers that got derailed at that time. Wish Pommie Mbangwa had more tests, and Andy Blignaut as well...

    Mulder is right arm, and playing county. De Kock is a mid 30s test player who was part of a lot of collapses. Verreyne and Rickelton both have potential to be far superior test bats than de Kock.

    But are they making plans for life without Broad and Anderson? There are a lot of quick, but fragile bowlers around, but can Archer, Wood and co. be available often enough?

    Or each individual player either being GOAT-level or worse than club level - no in-betweens.

    Add Zondo to column c and Rickelton to column b. I kinda hoped Zondo was going to get a go in this match, because he looked in good nick in the Lions game. Markram feels like late 90s Gibbs at the moment. That 15 had some amazing strokeplay in it followed by a braindead waft. I hope we're...

    It was a pretty comprehensive win, but I see England coming back strongly and our current batting is super fragile with no-one in the top 6 poking much above 40 and Maharaj at 8.

    But preferably the Mulder smashing it for Leics not the one with a highest score of 36 after 10 tests.

    Sucks to be say... Gerald Coetzee in that current setting. Still think Shamsi can be a top test bowler as well, now that he's getting more control, but it's such a gamble because he may be worse batter than Ngidi...

    Has Dom Sibley fallen off the map completely then? Was looking tidy enough when they toured here?

    Ben Compton had a good Zim provincial and Eng county season. Which countries is he eligible for? I'd love to see him in for Zimbabwe though...
