I for one don't rate them a bit. Kallis looks unlikely for the 1st test and the selectors have brought in Peterson as an extra batsman. This move is hardly logical when a youngster like Elgar is showning amazing form who can open the batting and bring an extra bowling option. In turn Peterson can take the place of Dumminy who will no doubt fail at least half of the test matches due to his technical issue. Surely Prince should not open in the absence of Kallis and move down the order to strengthen it? Whats more is a guy like Mclaren makes the squad ahead of Philander who i back to score more runs, bowl faster and is third highest wicket taker in the domestic four dayers. Ntini is also aging and in horrible form and keeps Tsotsobe out of the squad, who must be feeling that he has better chance going kolpak :P
A string of recent selection scandals needs to be answered: Kuhn in better form than Boucher for a couple of seasons. Tsotsobe never making the squad again after a four wicket haul on ODI debut. Albie on the other hand had almost 6 games in a row of sub par performances before being dropped.
Yes I am ranting but why are SA selectors so hot and cold?
