- I desperately hope Steve Smith stays strong, recovers and returns to international cricket. I desperately hope Cameron Bancroft is not scarred and, like his captain, is able to make best use of a second chance.
- Who's idea was it for Temba to stand between Morkel and Markram?
- The BCCI 'requested' that India should have an extra weeks rest after an arduous IPL...@NeilManthorp how is it possible that we're playing our 3rd match when India are playing their 1st? In a World Cup with an even amount of teams.
- 4,97,4,64,145,0,4,74,97,13,79* = 581 runs @ 58.1. Khwaja last 11 Test innings. Dropped. For two Marshes. You deserve it, Australia.
- Not just knew about it. It was THEIR plan. And none of them had the guts to carry it out. Used the least experienced player in the team. That is cowardly and truly pathetic.Leadership group knew about it ? What the hell
- Temba Bavuma should have been made Test captain. Not white ball captain. Should still take over from Elgar, now probably. It’s his format. Said all this ages ago. Nice 65 today. Ask him how much it means to him. Ask him about accountability for two run-outs. He doesn’t shy away.
- This is Art. We met on the Jubilee Line. Art says he is ‘very nervous’ today.
- “No doubt people from aboard will say ‘but you had an easy draw.’ Well, I’m not going to apologise for that. We are very excited about going to Lord’s next year.” - SA Test coach Shukri Conrad
- Jaw-dropping stat: @usainbolt has run 9 of the 30 fastest 100m times, inc top-3. The other 21 were all by athletes who tested positive.
- one of my all-time favourite players playing my all-time favourite shot. Nobody played it as consistently well as @BrendanTaylor86 - look forward to a retirement drink, BT.
