Was a ridiculous decision to bat him so low.

Beyers Swanepoel leaves One-Day Cup final to fly to England
Lions all-rounder Beyers Swanepoel left Sunday's One-Day Cup final against the Titans in Johannesburg, while the match was still being played, to travel to England.

Qeshile to Titans confirmed as well.

The Swanepoel incident has made me wonder about something. His being overlooked for the higher honours has seemed strange, especially given how many players the Proteas have tried of late, but could it be that he's a bit of a problematic character off the field?
Leaving in the middle of the match is not something most players would consider, but what else might someone who's prepared to do that have done? If he does have a history of poor behaviour then he might have got away with it at domestic level because he's a good player, but that sort of thing wouldn't fly for the national side.

Lions may not sign his NOC would be just rewards.

He's basically another Robbie Frylinck, no great loss to SA cricket, hope the punishment is severe for doing that to the Lions in a final.
We will gladly take him to the cape knock some sense into him same time

First game is Friday so obviously wants to be in the mix but still.
If I was his team mates or just everyone involved with Lions cricket I would be fuming.

Titans very busy.Beyers Swanepoel leaves One-Day Cup final to fly to England

E Bosch & Parsons leaving Dolphins for them.
Neil Brand leaving Titans for Knights.
More on the Beyers story. He apparently told someone at the titans before he told anyone at the lions.
The county provided the money for the flight but neither them nor the agent booked the flight. Seems it was Beyers or someone close to him.
He needs both CSA and the lions to sign his NOC currently neither is signing it.

More pleasant news Codi has replaced Jadon seales at Hampshire.

Telling Albie Morkel and him concocting a plan to tell the match officials is diabolical
Eathan bowling at Centurion makes me happy.

Yup. Seems like extra cash freed up with Pretorius, Brevis & C Bosch moving to CSA contracts during last season.
Imagine Sibz definitely follows Brand out the door.
Does Jorich and Schalk stay around as young players ? Imagine Janco Smith may want to move.
For the Dolphins. That is a bit of a blow. They have young players but I'm not sure they can count on Smuts and Zondo as senior players anymore so interesting if they maybe bring back someone like Dupavillon.

Leus du Plooy to Titans

Wonder if Du Plooy is making a bid for the Proteas again. I feel he would have played a number of games if he had been consistently playing and not vacillating.

Senokwane back to Knights maybe?
Sibz is barely 30? I've been critical of his career but to retire would be a surprise.
