    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    Northern Gauteng Ladies... 7/16 locally produced, with 2 each from Boitsepo and Prestige College, both in the Hammanskraal area. It's odd that in both men's and women's cricket, of all the areas around Pretoria has been the main source of township talent, rather than the larger Atteridgeville...

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    Northern Gauteng Men's. I'm sure they forgot about HPCs? 9/24 Locally produced. 4 of those 9 at Pretoria Boy's High. Then 3 NW players, 2 each Central Gauteng, WP, KZN Coastal and Boland. Their bowling seems paradoxically weak, as most of their best bowlers aren't going to be available much, and...

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    Brett, Engelbrecht, Phahlamohlaka, Selemela and Stolk were all HPC/Rookie contracts last season. Is it possible they were just omitted? I'm guessing elsewhere was calling Lion-Cachet that he went from no contract to full contract?

    Left a message on dragons page too. We'll see if it works again. No point posting on Warriors page, there's just tumbleweeds, although they do update their instagram.

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    But while Rossouw and Harmer weren't contracted, they weren't selected. It seems to be an unofficial rule? Nortje too it has to be said, and he claims he was fit to play and not selected, but it's crazy to play a test seamer bowler who isn't playing regular 4 day cricket...

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    I left a message on Titans' Fb page and an hour latee they were posted. Is Shamsi then not playing domestic cricket?

    Impalas report signing a Matthew Hollard. Can't find much on such a person beyond plays for uj and has a brother Jordan?

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    I think a lot of teams are waiting for the WTC final hubbub to die down? Here's NC men's, but only xi announced. There may be HPC/Rookie Contracts missing? Only one Northern Cape local, and 3 from the Union South-east of the Vaal... NC was a union where several players "disappeared" - I'm...

    *Official* WTC FINAL Australia vs South Africa 2025

    Whatever happens, a one-off test match still feels more like a post-season exhibition game than a final.

    South Africa team selection

    To be fair Zondo for SA A in India, looked so much better than the likes of de Bruyn who Axar Patel made look very silly. For better or worse, Markram isn't being dropped for a long time now...

    *Official* WTC FINAL Australia vs South Africa 2025

    From an Oz pov, the very few overs Webster has bowled this test has placed strain on the other 3 seamers. If Cam Green was fit, the other bowlers may have been a lot fresher (and if they weren't carrying the batters in the second innings). I've always thought Mitch Marsh was neither a test...

    Has my strategy of being insanely busy at work and barely being able to peep terrifiedly at the scores worked well today?

    I doubt it. We won't be so meek second time round and make the same mistake twice. We'll probably make some new ones though...

    India. Ngidi nearly had 2 in 2. Webster is certainly one to keep the bowlers keen.
