SA A end successful tour of Zim

SA A ended their successful tour of Zimbabwe as the last unofficial test was called off due to covid19 cases rasing in Zimbabwe. The SA A side won the unofficial One-day series 3-1 and the unofficial test series 1-0.

There were a few shining stars to come out of this tour. The future stars to come out were Zubayr Humza, Ryan Rickelton, Sinethemba Qeshile, Edward Moore, Senuran Muthusamy, Migael Pretorius, Glenton Stuurman, Daryn Dupavillion, Lutho Sipamla, Tony de Zorzi. This proves that SA have a good backup and also their bench strength is as good as the first team.

The manner in which they dominated and won each match as they were all one-sided affairs shows that South Africa are not far from becoming a powerhouse in cricket again. Providing no more political interference and players being awarded on the exceptional performance they put in over the season to get selected for the national side.

The Proteas also started a new era under captain Elgar with a dominant win in the West Indies and also this gives a chance at finishing 5th in the world test championship.

The future for South African cricket and its stars are bright and if the teams are selected right I have no doubt that out of the 4 ICC events that will take place from now to 2023 Proteas can be considered favourites to win all 4 tournaments.

Hopefully, we see more SA A tours alongside the Proteas in future so that we show the world we still have so talented cricketers and that South Africa is still a strong team. The more cricket the players play in the different conditions the more experience they will gain and the more prepared they will be when they get to make their debut for the Proteas.

These were my thoughts on Proteas and their future do share yours in the comment section below.

World test championship final

India vs New Zealand is where the focus of most cricket lovers is right now as both teams get ready to clash in the final of the world test championship. With the final set to happen in England at the Southampton cricket ground both teams are planning r they will make their way to England considering the testing times we in. Both teams will have to go into a quarantine of 10 to 14 days after reaching England before they can start practicing. New Zealand will be going to England before the end of this month as they have a test series against the English starting on the second of June. India, on the other hand, will only reach England on the 2nd of June in order this giving them enough time to carry out their quarantine and also gives them about 6 days of practice ahead of the WTC final. Everyone is saying New Zealand will have an advantage going into the WTC final cause their players will have had some game time where Indian players would only have net practice and inter-squ...

CSA 4 Day series Review

The CSA 4 day series has come to an end with Titans being crowned champions of division 1 and Northen Cape Heat champions of division 2. There have been some great performances through the season with both divisions going into the last round with 3 teams still having a chance to win the tournament. Division 2 was most dominated by Northern Cape Heat for the first couple of rounds until the loss to South Western Districts in beating Northern Cape South Western Districts kept their hopes alive as well as the Tuskers going into the last round any of these 3 could have been crowned champions.
