    Marnus Labuschagne on course to be Australia greatest test match batsman

    Will Labuschagne ever score a 9 as good as Rob Quiney's 9?

    These matches don't count for the World Cup. It's just the two against the Netherlands which are still part of the Super League.

    We South Africans feel your pain when it comes to a lack of foresight with selections.

    *Official* Women's Cricket discussion thread

    Here's Google's cached version of the article. Fat shaming gets mentioned in the headline and the opening sentence, but it's never brought up again, although there is a mention of Lizelle Lee's weight and its connection to her retirement...

    Best ODI fielder in this list

    I think Ponting may have also been more accurate when throwing at the stumps, with more direct hits than Rhodes. Then again, Rhodes' anticipation and speed may have meant that he didn't need to go for the direct hit quite so often and could afford to take the slower option of throwing to whoever...

    While I don't disagree with that, he still can't go around saying things like that (if the rumour is indeed true). Demanding that they pick you is not going to end well..

    Cricketers who should have played a certain format in international cricket , but for some reason were never picked ?

    It was his own doing though. He would have played tests if he hadn't gone Kolpak. And Miller has a first class average of 36.32, so I'm not convinced that he'd have been too successful in tests.

    South Africa team selection

    I don't think any of us here have objected to the idea of having fitness standards which players are required to meet. What we have questioned is whether the only test she failed is an appropriate one when it comes to assessing fitness for cricket.

    Amla was indeed the last one, although Elgar and Faf have both made 199 since then. But yes, a double is very much on the cards for Bavuma. Obviously, all sorts of things can happen at the start of a new day, but we certainly have enough batting left to give him support, so I reckon there's a...

    Damn it. This has been an important knock for Mulder too, and hopefully it's the start of something.

    Rickelton has made runs in county cricket as well although I don't know what the strength of the opposition he faced there was.

    DRS

    Do they still go with umpire's call for pitching? That used to be the case, but I thought they'd done away with it. As for striking in line, I think there may be the complication of pads not being a flat surface, so Hawk Eye can't be completely accurate there.

    He left the field straight after the last spell he bowled. That isn't necessarily a sign of anything, but given that was the previous session and you'd have thought Bavuma would have turned to him to try to break the final partnership, it is a concern.

    South Africa team selection

    Are Zimbabwe available? It's not ideal in terms of the relative strengths of the two sides, but there's obviously less travel involved than with any other opposition, which could make it easier to fit something in somewhere.

    I think the stat I saw was that the average first innings score at the Wanderers is 314. So a disappointing collapse, but still a par score for the ground.

    I wonder if Rabada will be pushing for a promotion up the order given that he scored more than 8-10 combined.

    Didn't think you were suggesting that. It was just a comment on Ngidi's lack of batting ability (or lack thereof). He's not quite South Africa's worst ever number 11 - Neil Adcock has a worse average in more matches, but he's definitely close to it.

    I think this was the match. Australia went at 5.8 an over in their first innings. https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/australia-tour-of-south-africa-1902-03-61370/south-africa-vs-australia-1st-test-62470/full-scorecard Although it was at the Old Wanderers, not this ground.
