I cannot remember how many runs made in the Australia series - but am sure it was not near to good enough. He was out for 8 runs again today against Pakistan.
Insofar as the shorter version of the game is concerned he did not get a single bit in the IPL to play cricket in India. So I he still of value in cricket?
Mike, Amla is surely getting close to retirement, but ATM, there is nobody really making a claim for his spot.
Not really - there are some very promising players coming through. I think of Van Tonder for instance.
There is another problem cropping up as well - what do they do with Duanne Olivier is al so a problem when Vernon Philander comes back. Hew is already 33 years old and I cannot remember when last he had a good game - he has been off with injury way too often over the last three years,
