another great day of cricket in store. But with more players going down with this gastro bug it’ll be a miracle that it won’t affect the result, but it’s Friday so I’m being optimistic and saying we’ll have them out quickly and runs from Burns and Root today . The problem is that we said this in NZ and we folded, so we’re fragile. So it’s as likely (all out as) – 5, I’m afraid.

Graeme Smith,South African’s new interim director of cricket, ischatting to Ian ‘n’ Mike. His shoulders could have their own chat show.
“I was looking forward to being in the comm box, but South African cricket has got into a lot of challenges into the last while and I wanted to get in and see if I could make a difference and help. The biggest challenges? I’m still working to try and add a bit more intensity, a bit more experience, a bit more leadership.
[re Kolpaks] I think it is always difficult to stop guys going to earn a good living that comes their way – in many ways its a good thing for them but for us it is a big challenge. We’ve got to be able to give our guys a good living, the strength of our cricket willthen improve, and then work out transformation, how we brings really talented black Africans through. ”
