South Africa in England

[mal]

ROOSTERMARTY
Its a matter of availabilty
EG is a different team if and when Flintoff/Harmison are in the team as a duo and bowl well
SA didnt have SSSSSSteyn for the last test
When EG have 4 quicks fit and firing they can be awesome [as in 2005 v AU]
Word hazit than Simon Jones is due to resume as well.

Maybe not Mal

Simon Jones has pulled out of the England Lions squad which will play two one-dayers against the South Africans. Jones is suffering a 'slight hamstring strain' and will be out of action for at least a week. Steve Kirby, the Gloucestershire fast bowler, will join the squad in Jones' place.

QUIZ
How many games has KP lost as Captain of England
Whatta captain ...

[RoosterMarty]

He wins a dead rubber and a few one dayers and he's an amazing captain?

Your love affair with him is sickening.

[mal]

England win a dead rubber and rant and rave about it, where were they for the rest of the series?

Everytime they win a meaningless game it's "watch out Australia".

KP AS CAPTAIN

1 TEST 1 WIN
5 ODI 5 WINS

Dead rubber .....
