Ooops :?

Good to see Keegan Meth in the wickets again, 4-51 so far today, he's a lad who must be within touching distance of a recall to the ODI squad, surprising he didn't get at least one Intercontinental match

Me too. I think he might be quite a good option as a 3rd seamer in the ODI side, and he would bat ahead of Utseya & Cremer.
