    ***Official*** England in South Africa 2015/16

    Ja that's the thing, in sa cricket simply doesn't have the same stature as rugby. Ii sometimes feel like the average south african doesn't really care one way or another. The only solution I see is to bring the games quality up and televise it on sabc where everyone can see it . None of this...

    That's probably true as well. Sir I have a question for you regarding dale steyn. Does dale steyn have to bowl fast to get the ball to swing ?? Can he bowl a little slower and still get the same amount of swing ?? I get the impression that he always has to bowl close the to the limit of pace...

    Yes but I believe that finn broad and anderson as a unit is better than steyn morkel abbot as a unit AT THIS STAGE. Steyn has gone pass his best(he is over bowled) and morkel fails to get the very best batsmen out. Abbot still has to learn a lot as must rabada morris viljoen. Therefore I...

    Your guess is as good as mine. The players have asked for a batting coach. Apparently they use lance klusener as a batting coach for the tailenders. Maybe they have already appointed a batting coach. Who knows.

    People this is interesting . Please read. I quote from the following link: Week 1 - SuperSport - Cricket Start quote: December 31, 2015 Well, what could he say? ¡°Yes, Graeme is quite correct. Several of the senior players are increasingly doubting my methods and beliefs and there might be a...

    Thanks I just think test cricket in south africa will never be again what it used to be , why?? firdose moonda recently suggested they use stephen cook as an opener to help stabilize the batting. But only as a temporary solution. That's why players leave to go play overseas. I recently heard...

    When was the last time sa played a 4 test match series ?? Let alone 2 consecutive ones ? There was a period when sa didn't play a test match for 11 months in the last 5 years. I feel sa simply isn't used to that level of pressure over such a short time. I guess it boils down to money.

    Why is Joel Garner so underrated?

    i consider him the best fast bowler after marshall that WI ever produced. superb control bowler. he could get the best batsmen out on a regular basis.
