Cricket season

Poor performance. The selectors and Boucher are weak they must act and drop those not performing including Rabada and Markram. I would also drop those who have chosen IPL over tests. Yes they earn life changing sums at the IPL but it’s not as if they are in the poor house.

Disgraceful performance by South Africa. Beaten in every aspect against Bangladesh.

It's going to be between, Afghanistan, Ireland, Sri Lanka, West Indies and South Africa for the automatic final position to qualify for the next ODI World Cup.

Dont be surprised South Africa lose the Test Series as well. We got the batters but the bowling department is weak. All our premier bowlers will be at the IPL.

Boucher has to be shown the door as it’s just jobs for the boys. He couldn’t even take a dog for a walk on the lead let alone lead an international side. Bring in foreign coaches. Players who are on there way to the IPL were just going through the motions to avoid any injury. SA cricket just like the football team are below average.

In theory I agree 100000%

The reality is any decent foreign coach would not accept the political interference that goes with the job

Betway are a bogey to them

Do they use the same model as they do in cricket and rugby when selecting the football team and if not why not?

Australia has set Pakistan 350 to win in 120 overs. That is very gettable.

Going to be an interesting.

That was a very sporty declaration and Pakistan 73/0 going into the last day. They were high has 40/1 to win but now below 2/1.

Early wickets for Australia might set Pakistan back but Pakistan should push for the win.

West Indies running through the England batting line up with ease 67/7

Khwaja really taking full advantage of his recall. That’s 4 centuries now I think

The last time that the Proteas played a test in Durban they were beaten by Sri Lanka. If the pitch takes spin then Bangladesh will win with ease.

No...it has long since been "transformed"...the ANC's obsession with demographic representivity / social engineering shows them to be the true racists...some segments of the population just don't take too well to certain activities in sport and other fields of employment but the ANC continues to try to force outcomes that cannot be...with the resultant acceptance of mediocrity...

Once they have destroyed team sports, they will move to individual sports to force demographic representivity...

They are great at displaying PHD (Pull Him/Her Down)...like crabs in a bucket that pull each other down such that none can reach the heights needed to escape...excellence is eschewed as it just shows up their incompetence...

Very sad...
