now if they were playing in Scotland then the game would not have even started. Going to be overcast on Monday which is bad news for SA as the ball will swing plus the ball will turn heaps so best to forget about this match and move on to Trent Bridge on Friday and hope that the ball does not swing like it usually does there otherwise its nag for the proteas

We have a professional cricketer,with an outstanding record and one of the best of this modern era
who has decided that he is going to be selective on which future matches he plays.For sure he won't be selective over the IPL.
We have the Captain back home changing nappies but for sure will pitch up one of these days.
The story with Dale Steyn I'm not sure what is happening.
Our Manager waited till the very last minute to throw his hat in the ring.There is now a selection process for a new Manager.
Mixed feelings over Rabada.I am no fan of Stokes,surly bugger, and he is on record of having a go at Bavuma last year.However the rules are the rules and Mr.Rabada has to sit the next Test out.

Why do we make life hard for ourselves.

KG had already accumulated 3 demerit points for a "shoulder charge"(should be shoulder brush)against Sri Lankan batsmen Dickwella,when Sri Lanka toured SA.Therefore the one match suspension.

If these demerit points were place in the era of Warne, McGrath, Waugh, Hayden etc then Australia would have had to pick fans to play to fill the team.

Another wicket. Why does it take the first three days for the team to wake up.

Makes for an interesting selection conundrum for the next test.....

Faf will be an automatic entrant, and Rabada and given exclusion...

So,I see it as Faf comes in for either JP or Be Bruyn. After the 1st innings, De Bruyn surely gets in ahead of Duminy. Added to this, we have a turning wicket and we still are yet to see JP turn his arm... he is clearly not being used as the general mentioning of he gives us the bowling option..... please selectors, make the right choice and drop JP, NOT De Bruyn...

With Rabada out, its either Morris or Olivier... with our obvious batting frailties, I sincerely hope we select Morris and he does add something to our batting department...

I wait and see to be amazed.....
