No suprise that Dale Steyn is out of the whole england tour now...sadly it appears his days of internayional cricket seem to be numbered....In a funny sort of way, despite him being one of the all time great's, SA do have more than enough bowling depth to cover his absences and eventually replace him....i do hope we see him back on the park at some stage though

[bigfluffylemon]

No Philander either. Still, Morkel is a very good one day bowler, and Rabada is likely to do well in England. Agreed that SA do have the depth to cover.

[andy]

I think Philander just wasn't selected, they seem purely for test cricket. No suprise really...they have plenty of options in white ball cricket

Saif Zaib takes his first list A wicket, Faf du Plessis. Not a bad scalp. South Africa 98/2 in the twenty first over.

Chesney Hughes playing for Northants today.

Hughes out for 31.

N'hants about to beat SA.

N'hants about to beat SA.

Ah it was you that jinxed it. Not a great performance from SA against a much weakened Northants side.

[Arthur Crabtree]

No! They were walking it.

[braveneutral]

Jinx!
