Glorious.

I felt so bad for them last year in that day-night test. At least there is none of that torture this year.

That was pretty difficult to watch admittedly.

So looks like Faf will be back from injury to play in the T20Is, will he?

The press release said they hope he will be.

Saw that he was with the Proteas group yesterday as they joined up. Don't forget he has to take kid Breetzke under his wing :D

Pretty sure it's the broadcaster that needs to foot the bill for drs.
I think the broadcaster organisers but the CSA needs to pay nowadays. It was to try unify a minimum standard. That was one of the main fights regarding DRS implementation that not all the boards could afford it... but somebody else to confirm.

Reeza & Dean at 2nd and 1 st slip on their old home ground probably saying where is Rilee because this could have been like old times when knights were really strong.

No reviews? Is super sport so pathetic?
If you haven't noticed they have been cutting costs for years. It is the state of economy.

They used to show 6 football leagues (Premier League, Championship, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1) but they cut the last 3 about 4/5 seasons ago and Serie A only returned this season. I am most pissed off about lack of Championship coverage from last season as my club is in there and its a great league. They also cut all European Euro & WC qualifiers about 6 years ago.

For cricket they used to show every international game and definitely been cutting some in recent years.

I am aware of the poor serie a coverage for years. Had to watch my Inter on dodgy streams for quite a few seasons.

Doesn't excuse them for not having drs. Should be compulsory for all international games.
Will probably netflix, seems their new scapegoat...

Reeza back-foot punch :wub:

Moments later why he hasn't nailed the door down for selection. That ball didn't spin much.
