What's the keeping situation like in South Africa? What are the chances of Tsvanhu touring?

Tsvanhu is currently 3rd in the pecking order of keepers but only by a very small amount. So to answer your question all things being equal he won't tour but if form of the 2 ahead of him goes south and his goes north then I will pick him as our 2nd keeper to tour given his talent and the opportunity to get extra experience into him for next season

i met up with Osborne Hammelman in a Pub last night, seemed to have wanted to drown his sorrows after not being picked. :cry:
and then his girlfriend broke up with him because she not getting a Holiday on the subcontinent :twisted:
Haha he was definitely unlucky this time. We have a few batsmen that are very close in skills and summary so someone was always going to be unlucky to miss out. On positive note he can now go out and live the single mans life 8) :lol:

Was a great performance 1st up. Hopefully we can knock off CGM's mob today. The 7 players that didn't play yesterday will be getting a run today so we won't be anywhere near full strength but should be an interesting contest regardless
