And Philander pointed out that SA are down to 2 test series a year themselves.

What a ball from Rabada to get rid of Kohli.
This SA seam attack is something.

This has been very enjoyable.

Remember when we used to play Test cricket? I’m not entirely sure we ever will again, which is a shame.

Plus you'll also have guys like Muzarabani and Ngarava not wanting to play test cricket because they want to save themselves for T20 gigs.

And that's the problem with having 2 or 3 guys being internationally ok and the rest not. Those guys will be thinking to further their own careers and international duty invariably not only becomes a chore, but actually reflects badly on them. Its a disastrous hamster wheel

Afghanistan cricket Board will not give NOC to three of its players cause they wanted to refuse central contract and make themselves available for franchise gigs throughout the year like boult etc. I wonder how many boards have the guts to do this

And of course one of South Africa's test series this season (tour to NZ) coincides with the SA20 so they will be sending a C team down under.
Neil Johnson, Alistair Campbell, Murray Goodwin, Andy Flower (w), Grant Flower, Dave Houghton, Guy Whittall, Heath Streak (c), Andy Blignaut, Ray Price, Eddo Brandes
