Smith's Crew in SA

[ElwoodBlues1]

Cummins will come in next.

The pitch is slow, no question. Rabada - who had had big wraps on him almost since debut - was only barely, sometimes cracking 140kmhr.

Warner reckons the spinners will come into play. The pitch is already variable with not a great deal of bounce....i think Starc's yorker will be a real threat. our lads seemed to have trouble picking up the line - whether that was the light or movement (defintely a bit there but variable), the SAffers won't like it when it's their turn.

Need Marsh to make a big half century or more.

Without Steyn, I think our pace attack is vastly better than theirs and their batting line up is not what it was....

If we can get 300+ *(ideally 350+) they'll be thinking twice!

Surprised they didnt play Hendricks the left arm quick who swings the ball who played in the A game.....Morkel is on his last legs IMO.
A few more to retire in the SA team, politics and quota's have reared their ugly heads again and there is unrest off the field
which has also led Morkel to retire.
Our batting has more depth, they rely on their big 4 to make the runs.......ie Amla, Faf, DeVilliers and DeKock.....dont think that will be enough...
