Shamsi & Ngidi now available for first game on Monday. So 13 players to pick from. 15 when Kesh & Klaasen arrive for 2nd game.

Corbin Bosch is Coetzee's replacement who was Nortje's replacement.

Baartman's injury who is also quite injury prone like the guys above might have made the selection easier.
Good decision ..Bosch adds a bit of batting depth something which has cost us in tournaments

I do like the idea of the package he brings but with Ngidi & Shamsi in the squad capable of very bad days with the ball it puts a lot of pressure on Rabada (still trying to perfect white-ball), Jansen (still has 1 too many bad days as still developing to his peak) & Maharaj.

Boast got a bit of tap in his SA20 game but wasn't as bad as the figures. But it was exciting that he was hitting 140. Hopefully he keeps working on the skills because he can bat too. I expect with all the Titans players away he may start the first game for them in the one-day comp starting this weekend.

Didn't get to see CJ King's one appearance and the speeds he was hitting.

Luus got it to 143/144 if memory serves me correct in his one game.

King was hitting 135-140 on the regular in the one game he played for DSG which is promising..

For me, Rabada, Nortje and Jansen are without doubt the top 3 Proteas pace bowlers.
after that their is a bunch of about 7 or so all of a similar standard, all good enough to be chosen,
Nortje is coming towards the end of his career hence he's behind Coetzee for me, Gerald has a high ceiling ..Jansen , Coetzee and Maphaka are the future of our bowling with Luus and hopefully another talented player of color prospect coming through soon

Nortje is not 32 till December, a good 3 years left providing he doesnt keep getting injured, Rabada is 30. providing they do not bowl him in to the ground he has another 4 or 5 years, Jansen only 25, should be around for years. i agree Coetzee, Maphaka and Luus are the future, but not top 3 yet, just my opinion,
