Spock, disrespecting a quality opposition player and clinging to death cheating is just fine.

All out 119, oh dear. Always a deadset hiding to nothing here, but disappointing the likes of Renshaw and co couldnt cash in here. Perhaps our attack has been overrated a little bit?

Or bowlers, did every one miss the 800 scored? Draw was the best result hoped for.

Its pretty obvious that the players dont want to be there but we are producing fast bowlers.

But we have really struggled to produce first class batsmen. The only guys who average over 50 in shield cricket is smith and khawaja i believe

3-1 is a fair result, RSA are tough to beat at home, the young opener looks the goods, ABDV is still one the best bats going around. They have quality bowlers, just ask India.

We as Pete pointed out need better batsmen, our bowlers except for Cummins were disappointing.

Starc wasn't right after the first test, he had niggles

Cummins bowled out of his skin, Haze was consistent but not great

BUT Our nemesis once again is our batting, Warner and Smith didn't deliver as they had in the past
and the others other than MMarsh in the first test didn't look likely. Once the fiasco of the ball tampering in middle of the 3rd test we were doomed even further

Clarke saved our ass last tour with that ton when he was getting battered and bruised by Steyn and co
We had no one close to that class and courage on this tour

Congratulations and goodbye to Morne Morkel, one of the good guys.
We will see him a bit in Australia id assume
