I will bite :)

I'm sure quite recently you mentioned don't run a player at the beginning of his career as Amla was terrible and look at him ;) I will even add another one to the list who I am sure (could be mistaken) got dropped at the beginning of his career as he wasn't cutting it... Kallis.... :) unlike the 2 mentioned, Markram is atleast getting starts... Give him some time, and I know he will prove you wrong :)

Where is my remote. Ah here it is. That Ferrari mouth a Haysman is on again. I truly believe that that microphone is super glued to his mouth.

All Amla and Miller have to do is pick up 4 an over for the next 10 overs which will take them to 120 which will leave them 155 to win off 24 overs which should be very gettable. I would drop Duminy and de Villiers for the last match as both are out of form.

I agree with you about Duminy... I would not drop AB as the Aussies are coming now and he had a year off cricket... He needs as much time as possible in the middle as he can get... The only issue about dropping Duminy, is who the hell do we replace him with??? Imvho, we are very limited and once we get an injury or two, we are in trouble... We just don't have the depth...

Stick Markram in at 3 and bring in one Henricks as opener. He has not been given a fair crack of the whip imo. De Kock and du Plessis have been missed, yes de Kock has been awful with the bat but he is the type of player that only gets his form back by playing and not by sitting at home watching Gommorah

They did exactly what i posted and then Miller goes out to a school boy shot playing in the backyard. Thats why SA will never win the WC.

Kohli is a wonderful player but his actions whenever India get a wicket leaves a lot to be desired. He just goes over the top and interacts with the crowd which is wrong.

India has given us a hiding in our own backyard and alarm bells should be ringing loudly as to the structures of the cricket in sa otherwise we will be 5th 6th in world cricket very soon ...its simple either all teams are picked on merit from under 10 level to proteas or accept our fate
