SA t20 tournament

I dunno why you'd have a 13 man squad lined up and then pick the 11 based on the toss, so I don't think it'll change anyhting. In a test match, maybe you change the bowling attack a bit depending on conditions, or maybe you play a more defensive bat if you're put in. But in a T20? It's not like the pitch is changing in 90 minutes' time.

Royals have a good team. Roy, Jones, buttler, van Burren, Adams vilas and Bosch is a top 7 that picks itself and Ngidi, shamsi, fortuin and McCoy is a solid 4 man unit. Batting down to 8 with fortuin aswell. Only issue is Bosch as the 3rd seamer. Anyone know if Jones can bowl upfront ala Washington Sundar?

I wish Brevis in playing xl today

I think on paper very good team under Rashid khan. Afghanistan also announced Rashid will be their T20I captain

Only real thing I could think of was weather... if they only need to pick the team before going on then if weather intervenes between toss and play it could make a difference. Also maybe bat first vs chasing might change things...

It could be that they're testing it out here with a view to see whether there's any merit in trying it in other formats, even if I don't know how well you can judge its success since I agree that it's not going to have a huge impact in T20s.

What on earth is this mumbai batting lineup? Poetgieter-Curran-Linde as the 5 6 7 in a t20 batting lineup is filthy. Especially when you have liam ****ing livingstone sitting on the bench.

Royals lineup looks better but starting the raymond guy over mccoy feels weird with both being windies internatiols, also no idea why there not playing one of bosch or jones, both are better cricketers than wihan lubbe.
