1   Hendriks

2   De Kock

3   Van der Dusen

4   Du Plessis

5   Miller

6   Pretorius

7   Phehlukwayo

8   Rabada

9   Tahir

10  Ngidi

11  Shamsi


The latter is not a bowlers arse and they still have only four real batsmen in the team


Holding selected in his WC 15 two strange selection, namely -


*   he is leaving out Amla; and'

*   includes Klaassen

*   he includes Shamsi

*   he include4s Chris Morris,


Two players are for the birds - Klaasen (Mozart will not agree with me - he at one stage wanted De Kock out d Klaasen in the squad)  and Shamsi.   The surprise omission is Nortje - whom I think is a must.   


Most commentators have by now agreed that Amla will be a liability and he should ty and get his batting on track in test cricket - where his future in cricket lies if indeed he has one.

And we have Hendricks again.   In the ODI's he played in thus far against Sri Lanka and in total made 4 runs after acing 10 balls - another dismal failure.

It is now having made 34 runs facing 55 balls.   not to offend Chippo I will reflect the strike rate as 61,62.   Is that sufficient?   To make it simple it is 3,7 runs in every 6 balls he faced,

Should be replaced by Markram in the squad - but they still have to find two extra batsmen  aside from that.

Faf gone for 36 after facing 27 balls.   So one dummy and one batsmen of the five batsmen in the team gone.

De Kock is soldiering on 78 runs from 58 balls.  

Wonder whether Mozart still want to replace him with Klaasen?????????? .
