Steyn gets smashed around by England in ODI cricket so i doubt England were too worried either way.Good news for England. Steyn's failed a fitness test, and is out of the game.
No, they've gone with Finn.Swann and Bres out. Tail looking poo. Please don't be tempted to play Woakes.
Maybe. I'd take Swann ahead of Tredwell, even allowing for the latter's good performances lately. And Bres has put in some very good performances, albeit with some occasional dross. I still think Finn couild go either way, whatever the rankings might say. I think the impact on our batting > than any possible improvement in our bowling.The bowling actually looks stronger now. We're relying on Morgan and Buttler actually doing something, though, although the tail can't do quite as badly as they did in the last match.
I've imagined how you might get around the anthem-singing if like me you're not a fan of the Queen, God, or even that big on saving people. But I suppose if you're an international sportsman it must grow on you after a while.South Africa's anthem is quite jolly isn't it! And Morgan was clearly thinking "she's not my queen."
Supposed to be hot later, but good bowling conditions for now.
