Nikhil_cric Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 2 hours ago, express bowling said: Nortje, Burger and Ngidi, all are missing. Injury ? Why would Burger play when they already have a left armer in Jansen? Lungi is no longer first choice and Nortje has not signed a central contract Link to comment
Nikhil_cric Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Unusual 9:30 am start for a Test in South Africa. It's usually at 10:30 out there. First time Im seeing such an early start in a Test outside of India Link to comment

Burger and Jansen played together in both tests vs India in 2023. You see there is no single spot limit on left arm pacers in tests. If considered the best then all 4 can be right armers or left armers. Link to comment
javier26 Posted November 27 Author Share Posted November 27 Markram playing 20-20, confident start from SA. Link to comment

You see there is no single spot limit on left arm pacers in tests. If considered the best then all 4 can be right armers or left armers. And that is generally a poor decision. 2 left armers in Tests is too many. Left arm seamers are very dependent on movement and you are better off playing right arm quicks in this format.

javier26 Posted November 27 Author Share Posted November 27 Both the openers dismissed, SL making the most of the overcast conditions. Link to comment
Nikhil_cric Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Keep them to 300 and below and SL can actually win this. Link to comment

Lone Wolf Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 So a 1-1 result here and NZ dropping a test to England suits India I assume @Nikhil_cric Link to comment
Lone Wolf Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Lankans have a brittle tail this time. They have gone all out Pace attack. Kumara will be interesting even though its Durban but there will be some pace and bounce on offer Link to comment
The Hound Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Markram is an inferior version of KL Rahul express bowling and Vicks57 2 Link to comment

Sgattick10 Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Pitch looks slow. They make spicy pitches when India travells. express bowling 1 Link to comment
Lord Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Arshdeep is better version of this Fernando. Should be tried in SEN conditions Link to comment
Vicks57 Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 (edited) We should win a test series in South Africa and get it over with. They are shell of themselves. We missed a chance last time. Edited November 27 by Vicks57 Link to comment
