Now this seuntjie bowling attack really is pretty toothless. It’s a dead pitch which requires a bit of guile, but as the commentators point out Maharaj pretty  much bowls the same ball every time. Rabada is somewhere else. Nortje is trying, but again seems to have little variation. We lack deep experience in the attack and are being carved up by these thirty plus batsmen like Smith and Khawaja.

No we don’t need experience at all Nortje, KG and Maharaj have more than enough experience The problem is obvious. The bowlers are done - they never have anything to work with They know their bats are utterly useless and any good work they do is undone by the bats There is a limit to how much you can fight . No point in flogging a dead horse It’s like being part of a great backline and having a miserable pack of forwards in front of you. Without the ball you can’t do shit
