Did anybody watch SA v Austrzlia last ODI how Botha replaced Tsotsobe with Morkel in the second last over just after the guy had taken a wicket in his previous over. I thought that was bad captancy or unfair. Wotchu think?

Unlucky because it denied him a chance at a 5-fer, but I don't think it was bad captaincy. Morne Morkel is a class bowler and as it turned out he took the wicket.

Botha is obviously doing something right, he's led South Africa to a 4-1 victory away from home.
