South Africa team selection

Durham is his club in England and who probably propelled his international career so I guess he was never going to leave. Considered an ATG there already with his stats.

Big summer for him for the Proteas though you imagine. Has plenty competition breathing down his neck.

Fair eough. Quite the gamble though.

Just an outsider making a comment. Surely, he is doing ok for himself to have regular red ball cricket/cricket in his off season as he isn't on the franchise circuit too much rather than several months of nets at best?

Absolutely. @andruid is touching on the competition & watching his hundred he made now where he hits medium-pacers off their length I guess is the question. But he would have had nothing else so I'm cool with it. He knows what he is about anyways. Just whether it is good enough.

That's a fair question, although it is not like there aren't a few international teams who have medium/medium fast nibblers around. Of course, there is always going to be a quality gap compared to perhaps coming up against Boland/Neser?

That's fair and to be honest if they getting a movement that is always challenging.

But damn, that Durham team is stacked. It should be Div 1.

International 12th Man
One brings two with Hamza going and Ackerman out for 4, and Qeshile shaky so far against turn... Senokwane heading towards his first SA A 4-day 100 though...

Kyle Simmonds showing what he is about with the bat.

He should enjoy bowling on this as the game goes on, going by Kaplan being bowled for 97 turning off the straight.
