Will be hoping the earlier version of Ngidi turns up to Zim because the later one will be running circles all over Zim

At the moment Bennett is Raza 0.5...one shot pony. If Bavuma packs the offside with a couple slips, gully, point, cover point, cover and the bowlers bowl back of a length on the 6th stump line, you can keep Bennett quieter than Elon Musk's tweets against Trump.

Re: South Africa vs Zimbabwe | Minor Multi-Day Match | 03 June 2025
Exactly how I would line up with Tsiga ahead of Madande. Wes and Nick aren't competing for the same spot. Campbell is probably Wes' direct competition in this format for next few months.
The "surprise" will probably be Tanu for Kaitano. Which I don't think is extremely controversial
