Cricket season

It wont come as a surprise if AB retires from international cricket after the champions cup and test series against England to pursue a 20/20 full time career.

Theunis de Bruyn is a new cap in the Proteas Test squad for the three-Test series against Sri Lanka. Prove your mettle and you will be selected, let the number do the talking.

He has an outstanding first-class career average of 48.73 (6 centuries) and has made 423 runs at 60.42 in this season’s Sunfoil Series four-day competition.

Compare that to Keaton Jennings record...

If he has been called up naresh then he will play. Who will be the unlucky player dropped

replacing rilee rousow in squad who is injured

Looking forward to the Australia v Pakistan series which starts tomorrow. Just hope that the Pakistanis dont wilt under the pressure of the Aussie quick bowlers (NZ was a nightmare for them on green tracks).

Im really happy for Theunis... A couple years ago, he had just made his debut for the titans, and I said he will be a Protea (doubt anyone remembers lol). Yes, he might not get a run in the series, but he is one step closer.

One person playing for the whole team? That was pretty much the case for Mpumalanga in their T20 game against Easterns during the Cricket South Africa (CSA) Girls Under-19 Week in Pretoria on Monday.

Mpumalanga opener Shania-Lee Swart smashed 160 runs from 86 balls while the other batsmen contributed a grand sum of zero. Besides Swart's 160, there were nine extras in her team's 169 for 8 from 20 overs.

Swart hit 144 of her runs in boundaries, with 12 sixes and 18 fours. She saw eight of her team-mates get ducks, and an opposition bowler take 5 for 15.

Mpumalanga won the game by 42 runs.

If Pakistan want to hold onto the faint chance they have of beating Aus, they have got to take their chances. Fielding mistakes are costing them. Havent seen such a poor catching display for a long time...

England will have no excuse if they don't post 500 in their first inning. The pitch looks great for batting. At 109/2 they are very well placed

Let's see if they have the balls to fine Root for his petulance after been given out.

I think they should fine the umpires... Root is NEVER out...
