Shades of Grey

Stupidity is contagious. Ignorance is a choice. The M in masses is silent.

@ProteasWomenCSA What Mlaba can do with a ball sometimes borders on sorcery.

@SABC_Sport Quite possibly the most dominant female ultra distance runner of all time.

@thomasmlambo Bafana needs to win here. We need Mbeumo back, the sooner the better.

@ProteasWomenCSA Wolvaardt being done dirty here. That wasn't even out with the old one-bounce-one-hand rule.

Being wrong got renamed “my opinion.”
Knowing the facts got renamed “your bias.”

And that’s exactly how a society talks itself into stupidity.

@goolamv Our paths crossed occasionally when he was ANC Chief Whip. We had a little ritual. I'd greet him with "Mr Chief Whip," and he'd bow his head slightly and respond with, "Mi'lady." I always found him a true gentlemen.

@ProteasWomenCSA Not great opposition,but we can see SA is much more balanced with Dané at 4. Wolfvaardt, Britz, Luus, Dané, Kapp, Tryon, Nadine, Jafta, Klaas, Khaka, Mlaba. 3 of the top 7 are frontline bowlers, Luus can spin,& we get to pick 3 more bowlers. No more Bosch and Dercksen experiments

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

Fantastic run chase by the Proteas. So glad Maharaj kept his head right at the end. Corbin Bosch must be the find of the season. A man that knows and trusts his game, Bosch has had a remarkable 2025. Kudos to Conrad for roping in a veteran international newbie. #INDvSA

@ProteasMenCSA Neither Stubbs nor Markram has any idea of where their off stump is. The Proteas got lucky that for two days in June, Markram inexplicably found it, and we won the WTC.

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

@Trishen_C @ProteasMenCSA Agreed. Make Rickleton keep and pick another batsman. The way Verreynne stabs at everything with hard hands way in front of his body makes him a walking wicket in these conditions anyway, even if he doesn't throw his wicket away like he did this afternoon.

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

@ProteasMenCSA What in the actual fcuk was that? Nobody except for Bavuma looked like they were willing to protect their wickets. Some good balls, yes, but what were especially Verreynne & Jansen thinking trying to smash every ball in the fading light? Should've sent Harmer in at 7 to stonewall

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

@SuperSportTV Dire "batting." Nobody except for Bavuma looked like they were willing to protect their wickets. Some good balls, yes, but what in the actual fcuk were especially Verreynne and Jansen thinking trying to smash every ball in the fading light? Brain dead batting.

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

@ProteasWomenCSA For the love of god, please shelf the reverse sweep. Value your wickets. We cannot afford to get three players bowled off poorly executed reverse sweeps again today.

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

@AfrikanChefZA @ProteasWomenCSA Yep

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

@ProteasWomenCSA Oh, FFS. Can someone send the message to management to get Dercksen out of the inner ring. England has 24 runs. She has dived over 10 of those runs.

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

@ProteasWomenCSA This display just shows the difference in class between Australia & England & the rest. Then you look at how easily Australia got past England after also wobbling at 68/4, & you have to admit Australia is a class above.Even so, as sort of the best of the rest,this is humiliating.

[Shades of Grey @XennialEyeRoll]

@ProteasWomenCSA The chasm between Australia and England and the rest of the world clearly evident today.
