West Indies Men Tour of South Africa

Doesn't solve the issue of a sixth bowler. Also with a wc coming in India you need to get shamsi confident as you are definitely playing 2 spinners.
Should be giving Linde more game time IMHO.

I'm a big Shamzi fan, but honestly, there deficiencies in his game which can't be overlooked at national level...

Linde is persona non grata at the proteas. Rumor goes he refused to tour unless he was guaranteed playing time.

Markram is our 6th bowler. I was just saying that Parnell on this occasion would have been a better choice. (he knows the EC conditions better than most)

All good and well to give the new players a chance, but not fair to the public who paid for tickets to see the Proteas go down.
 
SA fielding first

"We have Aiden Markram for the toss and the news is that Temba Bavuma is resting after a hamstring issue."

Brooks gifting his wicket... eish...

Something as silly as an unnecessary run out can trigger a mini collapse. How many times have we seen it before in cricket?
