Marumani persisting in hitting or trying to hit everything behind square leg. Lost his offside game

Bennett off to a flyer. Almost holed out 3 times, but has ridden his luck and playing well.

Bennett contributes with the ball as well which Marumani doesn't do, and overall Bennett just looks a better player.

Do Bennett and Campbell come from a better school googly who have had better exposure as compared to their counterparts? I mean overall they have adapted well to international cricket quickly and look better players than the likes of Shumba, Marumani, K-Long, Munyonga and the likes.

They went to good schools, so did Marumani, I think he had a scholarship at Falcon.
Shumba was Churchill I think. Not sure about TK and Tony.
Churchill went south just after Shumba's time.

Our school cricket is so shit in general, but it gives them a better start for sure.
Both Campbell and Bennett come from serious sporting families. Bennett's parents were fantastic sportspeople, very very talented family.
