This really needs regulating. If a league overlaps with another league, you can only play in one of them. Would be better for fans, easier for teams to plan, improves the integrity of the cricket, more clarity for broadcasters, I could go on

And another 🔥🔥
Yes Steve smith’s catching is great but his anticipation and the way he reads the game so well is what makes him so incredibly good in the slips.

South African pitches having this huge range of how they play is a key reason why the cricket there is so engaging. Raggers, green tops, occasional road - just so much more interesting than conditions where the main debate is whether you can get by without a spinner.
Can I say how excited I am that South Africa are playing two spinners in a home Test against Australia? I was getting so tired of all the no-spinner greentop Tests we've been seeing outside Asia and the West Indies of late.

Shortlisted for the auction at a R200,000 reserve price ✅ Qualifies as a rookie. Great prospect for any team looking to invest in a middle order hitter 👀
Blake Simpson, 21, looks a real prospect. Tall, powerful hitter, bats at 5/6 & also bowls decent leg spin. Contracted with NC for this season. Expect plenty of interest in the SA20 auction given his skillset. Should qualify as a rookie for next year's comp.

Matthew Breetzke earlier this year: “I had a brief with Patrick Maroney on my future with the Proteas and it was basically that for the foreseeable future, they don't see me in the T20 and Test side because there are batters ahead of me,” "With regard to the One Day side, he basically said my spot is not secured." WOW. Wonder if Patty has changed his mind?

SA A batters making huge claims for test caps: Marques Ackerman (1, 219 runs from 12 games at 71.7 and 102SR) Sinethemba Qeshile (1,010, 16, 56.11, 62.88) Zubayr Hamza (1, 553, 20, 57.51, 64.78) Strongly believe all 3 should play against Bangladesh. Ackerman must play every test of our summer.

Not sure how we've not found space for Brevis for the Australia ODI series. Sure he hasn't set the world alight in ODI's but ask the Aus bowlers who they'd least like to bowl to and most, if not all, would say Brevis. Man of the series last week as well.
