After their defeat in Durban and the loss of Steyn because of injury, South Africa replenished their squad with

Quinton de Kock, Chris Morris and latterly Hardus Viljoen.

De Kock is expected to keep wicket, such is the resistance of AB de Villiers to fulfilling the role once more,

although the details were still under discussion the day before the match.

"The word consistency has already come up. Can we do it again?

We have to be careful we don't get carried away.

There were times when we didn't quite get it right in Durban and we managed to drag it back with absolute hunger and skill."

Alastair Cook, England's captain, is making no promises for Cape Town.

EXCELLENT. REALLY REALLY STOUT OF Abd . HE HAS WON A BIT OF RESPECT FOR ME FOR THIS.

Making ABd keep in the first place was ridiculous. it seemed an attack on him personally...to make H'amla captain then hamstrung your best batsman with a pair of gloves. it was as if they wanted to reduce AD, to make sure he would not rise to challenge H'amlu as captain ever again..to keep him to busy in the game to have any other focus.

dat seemed straight out of the mind of Lorgat to protect his bwoy H'amlo.

it shud be clear by now dat I doh like Lorgat and H'amli. H'amle is not the best captain for RSA. captaincy looks like an imposition that may have cost Amloo his own batting form already

Re: 2nd Test: South Africa v England at Cape Town - mapoui - 01-02-2016

by one stroke Lorgat seemed to have ripped up the heart of Saffie batting..making H'amli captain and strapping the 'glubs' on ABd

but dat allyuh see is none of my business or problem. that is a Saffie problem. I have my own already ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL::

I jess love the fact that ABd has put his foot down.....[size=24pt]'no glubs'[/size]

A very entertaining start to Test cricket for 2016.

As it stands, Rabada is the leading wicket-taker for the year

Stokes the leading run-scorer.
