Fellas
I'm a bit worried about our side in general.

1. Steyn hasn't performed much at all in the past 18 months. I hope its purely injury based and nothing else. Most quicks go on until 35 / 36. Morkel is like a puppy! I wish someone gave him a set of teeth and a louder bark!
2. We really do rely heavily on AB. QdK and Amla. Further than that, we rely on the prodigy of Duminy and Miller, but their consistency is under the spotlight.
4. What is going on. Where have all our all rounders gone? We are now calling Morris,Wiese and  Parnell allrounders. LOL. Compared with what have come and gone before, thats a bit of a joke!
5. We do have a few shining lights that may bring home some silverware, but we are certainly not what we were when GS was at the helm. Say what you want, but to date he has been our only captain to TRULY believe that we were bette than Oz, and look where that got us! TO NUMBER 1!
6. Successful SAFFA teams in the past have had some players that do not step back for anyone, even if they lacked brains and talent at times! Symo, Schultz, McMillan, Donald, Kirsten (G), Smith, Nel, Steyn, Klusener, Hayward are just a few thay  come to mind. In my opinion, that is where we are falling shortest now.
I hope that Morris can find some consistency. He has the grunt.

Whatever the case is, come on boys! Come back with a 100% record!

My team:
Amla
QdK
Faf (hope he finds some form quickly)
AB
Duminy
Miller Rilee (if Rilee plays, id have him at 3 or 4 )
Parnell
Morris
Rabada
Phangiso
Tahir

Our tail starts at 7, scary!

Forget Miller and Rilee.  Say Flash is it now officially ok to post cricket up top? Just asking.

 Miller isn't part of the squad. Moz, Flash has always posted his cricket posts in the rugby section....no problem.

Okay, not surprising....Miller is great at scoring runs when they aren't needed.  We are getting full coverage on our Indian/USA Chanel. Looking forward to this series.

 Moz, lets not forget Miller getting us out of jail in our 2015 World Cup opener.

But yes, i do agree, his form hasnt been great at all.
A technical weakness has been spotted and exploited.
