Yes I can look at his stats(as mentioned) but im more interested in his line,length,pace and adaptability after such a long time off. Unfortunately I missed the game. Thanks in advance.

He was ring rusty. Just going through the motions.

You missed out on a good game. Frylinck made the fastest 50 in the competition of 19 balls. When he came in they needed 12 to the over and about 70 was required. He hit them sick and silly.

Thanks Naresh. I read that one of the doc's said he will never grace the field again... so glad he proved that doc wrong, and pray all good health going forward. I have always been of the opinion that Steyn would not be where he is without Morkel (just my opinion ofcourse). I really hope he comes through with flying colours and joins the test squad and gets the overs under the belt with no more hiccups. Imo, with enough games under the belt and overs, we need him in the champions trophy.

Fark me, the Proteas are really trying to clinch defeat from the jaws of victory....

5 wickets lost for 37 runs, not too worried as Morris will win it with the bat.

The Champions Trophy has the Proteas name on it already. Best SA one day squad for a long long time.

Proteas made it difficult for themselves but nonetheless a win is a win. Phehlukwayo looks a good prospect and only 20 years. Hopefully he does not end up a slogger as he can bat, needs more batting time.

After that performance, Parnel wont be playing as an all rounder for a long time.

Could become the finisher like Klusenar.

Klusener was his coach at the Dolphins before he got fired. He did mention at that time the teenager can hit the ball a mile

All the big tournaments are being hosted by the so called big three from now on. Champions Cup in England then the 2019 WC in England then the next Champs Cup in Australia then the 2023 WC in India and in between all of that the 20/20 World Cups in Australia and England. Pretty disgusting that SA and all the other nations miss out

What a knock by Gunarathne of Sri Lanka 84 not out off 45 balls. Sri Lanka win series in SA and Australia within a few weeks of each other

What a cracking win by Sri Lanka against Australia. Looked dead and buried with 3 overs to go and 48 runs needed and 7 wickets down. Gunarathne was sizzling hot. They was high as 14/1 in running.
