We'll know a lot more about them this time next year, when they've played in England and against Aus.<BR/><BR/>Having said that, it could be reasonably assumed that Aus will start to come back to the pack in Test cricket with the loss of Gilchrist, Warne, McGrath and Langer, with Hayden and Ponting also coming to the end of their careers. India are also going to lose much of their batting soon, so the SA series with England could tell us a lot about where the strength in cricket will lie over the next 5 years.Richard Lakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12305428361656401297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37251922.post-17411840078990958792008-04-09T19:25:00.000+01:002008-04-09T19:25:00.000+01:00SA have looked very impressive of late although I ...SA have looked very impressive of late although I am not as worried about Steyn as most of you seem to be :) Personally I don't think they can hold a candle to Australia ... but then neither can we...Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05153704692133983969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37251922.post-10377663726346245782008-04-09T18:28:00.000+01:002008-04-09T18:28:00.000+01:00With a Test bowling average of 21.41 and s/r of 35...With a Test bowling average of 21.41 and s/r of 35.60 I am worried too! It's a big year for them.<BR/><BR/>I still can't quite believe that although Smith, McKenzie and De Villiers have scored double hundreds, but Jaques Kallis hasn't. Hope that it doesn't come this summer!Chrispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17116768172493122694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37251922.post-32932508944247369282008-04-09T16:53:00.000+01:002008-04-09T16:53:00.000+01:00I can now see that the second figure is the strike...I can now see that the second figure is the strike-rate, my bad!<BR/><BR/>Gather they play Aus at the end of the year (away I think), now that should be a brilliant series!Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09215417891130654291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37251922.post-81774353923059924582008-04-09T14:19:00.000+01:002008-04-09T14:19:00.000+01:00Top stuf Chrispy.

Just a quick question: what do the bowling stats, eg Ntini's 27.78 / 51.60 refer to?<BR/><BR/>I fear for England v Steyn and co!Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09215417891130654291noreply@blogger.com
