What is clear is that almost every major tournament is going to be won by Australia, India, or England unless something drastic changes. Cricket is going to get pretty boring without stories like the Sri Lanka ODI team of the 90s or the West Indies team of the 80s.

That 2004 squad was quite something.

Quite interesting to see how this Proteas squad does against New Zealand. Bowling attack actually looks quite decent so far with Dane Paterson, Duanne Olivier (remarkable to see him without a T20 contract somewhere), and Tshepo Moreki who I haven't seen before.
