So South Africa have arrived. Getting a bit of a spanking from Somerset. Morkel 9-0-76-0. First Test on the 19th, ibuleve. It ought to be a very good series. Couple of selection posers for either side.

Boucher is to have surgery after sustaining an eye injury today.
Boucher, he's slipped off the radar lately. They should let ABdeV the keeper. Their middle order is stronger than england's but their openers seem to be much weaker. Can't even recall who they are. G.Smith has been injured a lot. Quite a reversal from when Kirsten and Gibbs were there.Originally Posted by McNamara That Ghost...

G Smith, Rudolph, H Amla, J Kallis, AB de Villiers, JP Duminy, MV Boucher†, M Morkel, RJ Peterson, DW Steyn, Imran Tahir, VD Philander, LL Tsotsobe
Fair play, that is a ridiculously good squad.
Morkel, steyn, philander vs Anderson, broad, Finn ----- draw
Tahir vs Swann -------- England
Smith, Rudolph, Kallis vs cook, Strauss, Trott ---------- England
Amla, de Villiers, duminy vs Pietersen, Bell, Prior ---------SA
...concludes my championship manager analysis.
Smith is a bit of a fatty now, I mean he was never exactly slim but now he is the white Santos. They need Kallis to perform I think, though weirdly he has always struggled in England. Amla is fairly reliable having said that.
You can usually rely on Smith to shit on England. They're good but they're prone to dodgy collapses. Certainly in England I'd back England's batting to be more consistent. But then again SA did win last time round. And they haven't lost an away series since 2006, I'm reading
I hope the Inglish bowling attack is what Syn has posted. Finn needs a go.
Boucher won't be able to play international cricket again due to the eye injury.
He was going to retire soon anyway but still. Hope he hasn't lost the eye.
South Africans 187/4 (55.4 ov)
All SA's apart from the openers got starts - and I think that's what all they were after. Kallis stopped after reaching 40 odd.
He must have lost sight in it at the very least. Damn stumps.
