SA squad for tests and limited overs in India

Surprised to see them leave de Kock out of the tests for a much older Vilas given his stellar from in the 'A' series in India.

Because it's in India?
Four if you include Duminy. But yeah, I guess you're suggesting it's not South Afric's strength, and quick bowling has won them tests in India in the past.

Exactly. SA has the best record of any team touring India, and it was done with quick bowlers.
Remind me, how did Warne go in India?

Hopefully this makes sense to someone.
It may be difficult to find a spot for de Kock in the T20s, especially with the inclusion of Zondo, who will take up a middle-order position. Zondo, who bats at No. 5 for his franchise, was South Africa's second-highest run-scorer in the A team triangular series in India, behind de Kock.

A bit apples and oranges, though. India's batting against spin is nowhere near what it was with Tendulkar, Dravid, Ganguly and Laxman.taipan wrote:Remind me, how did Warne go in India?
3 spinners does seem too many, and doubt Tahir brings anything to the test team.

The point is you won't be batting against spin.

Ah, the Allan D tour. Although that was a bit bananas, wasn't it.
