bowl_out Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Agree. I thought they would play Morris in the XI ahead of one of the quicks. Good for them, they have decent batters all the way up to No10

Steyn has played only one test the previous two time he made comeback and then got injured again. This happened against us in India and against England/ Aus. So his body is clearly past it when it comes to handling the rigour of test cricket. I see him retiring from test cricket imminently. Steyn 's heel injury is no big deal. It happens to Starc frequently. Whether he wants to play test cricket or retire is his decision. But I think his body will hold good.

Since Sep 2015 (almost 2.5 years) Steyn has played in only 6 tests of which he got injured out mid-match in 4 tests. All of them were also first match of the series where SA had to play with 10 players mid-match due to his injuries in 4 of those 6 tests. Clearly his body is not taking in the rigours of test cricket if it is breaking down almost every test he is bowling. He will retire either soon or after a test or two to go past Pollock's record. Will probably start concentrating on T20s and the WC next year, just my two cents.
rkt.india Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Morris will be a welcome relief as a bowler. He is a boundary leaker.
