Faf: Boucher extinguished my Proteas fire

Former Proteas captain Faf du Plessis says he "got no love" from coach Mark Boucher and CSA director of cricket Graeme Smith towards the end of his international career.

Faf has made himself available.

There is a lot of lying around this issue. It's not like Faf is being screwed over due to quotas or that the selectors don't like him. There is a rule around domestic participation that guys like him and Tahir do not fulfil and therefore they are not eligible.

Had they been playing domestically, they would be eligible but it does not make sense for them as they could just earn more and have an easier life playing in leagues around the world.

Some countries do select freelancers occassionally but SA does not.

exactly... how can you believe someone that puts this in his book.

For reals Tim? no one in the entire dressing room knew except for those 3? and then you wished youd supported the wrongdoers better? lol.

The Australian team has long been accused of having widespread knowledge of their own ball tampering, a claim that Paine denies.
But he felt the team could have taken more responsibility to help the three accused - Steve Smith, David Warner and Cameron Bancroft.
"Cricketers keep a lot to themselves, even in the happiest teams - coaches and support staff do the same," Paine wrote.
"Everyone out there was shocked when they looked up on the big screen and saw Cameron Bancroft with a piece of sandpaper in his hand. I was stunned. We all were.
"Steve and Cam were alone.
"Things were tense and horrible. I think Davey felt abandoned and that nobody was looking out for him.
"Everyone was a part of it to some degree — would it have worked out better for those three players if we had owned it as a team? I think it would have."
"On reflection all three of them should have had more support. Maybe we could have done more as a group or organisation, not enough people put themselves in their shoes."
