Durban born and bred. Love the beach, the bush, the berg and almost all sport!

@i_trafficKZN Truck broken down at Spaghetti Junction N2/N3 interchange on the N2 glide off from N2 Southbound to join N3 West bound. Traffic at a standstill

@Lubabalo_GN If he can operate at 3 it gives our side great balance. On an unrelated note how good a keeper is Lhuan-Dre pretorious?

@ashfakmohamed @IOLsport @IOL @CapeTimesSA @TheCapeArgus @TheStar_news @pretorianews @TheMercurySA @DailyNewsSA do you know whether if the Warriors had applied for leave to field only two Black African players due to them needing to play an extra spinner and not having a BA spinner, would they have got permission with perhaps a directive that they play 4 BA players in a future fixture?

@imongamagcwabe There can’t be any real debate that there are different requirements for different competitions. Whether or not CSA can do anything about it or not, the lack of transformation in the SA20 has to be a concern. Also begs the question whether hard targets are working domestically.

Sobering stuff for SA cricket fans. Also interesting that it appears fairly obvious but hasn’t been addressed after all these years. https://t.co/rGpDfl68vy

@BoknRoll @bolandcric Hate this for Durban but have to agree. Would also love us to try follow a NZ type model of playing tests (except Boxing Day and New Year) at smaller grounds in general.

[Gareth Randles @Narrow87]

@KelRo736 @KassNaidoo I’m here in Durban and I think that’s it for today but I don’t think there will be any other rain delays in the test. If the pitch stays as lively as it looked this morning then that should be enough time for a result.

@Werries_ Been a very good tour for him 👍

Baker Street is a London Underground station and it's the world's first underground railway, opened on 10 January 1863.

Located at the junction of Baker Street and the Marylebone Road in the City of Westminster, its construction began in March 1860 using the "cut-and-cover" method to dig the tunnel.

Today it's the combination of three separate stations, with several booking offices throughout its operational years. Major changes took place in the years 1891-93 and 1910–12.

@Werries_ I thought Stubbs had pulled out of the CPL?

[Gareth Randles @Narrow87]

@Lubabalo_GN SA20 ambassador to India would be more accurate. I quite like DK definitely one of the more objective Indian ex players turned pundits

[Gareth Randles @Narrow87]

@MaxduPreez Hi Max. I am trying to buy your three books about interesting characters from the history of Southern Africa in paperback. Is there somewhere that I can order all three from? Thank you 🙏

[Gareth Randles @Narrow87]

@Lubabalo_GN Agreed. Would prefer him at 4 and Klaasen at 6.

[Gareth Randles @Narrow87]

I’m not sure how these contribution to win %s work but if accurate then the most startling thing about yesterday was how close Coetzee and Sky’s contributions were when Coetzee went 10 an over. Context is everything in analyzing performances.

@KelRo736 @sportbillysays You definitely have a point - I do think there is some value in Klaasen being held back to go nuts at the end but there is probably a sweet spot of like 30 balls for him to face. Also thought Soyinka played the situation quite well by just feeding Breetzke.

🗣️"He's still never really owned the ball-tampering scandal"

In his column for 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑊𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝐴𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑎𝑛, Mitchell Johnson stated that Warner's desire for a Test farewell on his terms reeked of the same "arrogance and disrespect" as the sandpaper incident
