De Kock needs time in middle

Quinton de Kock must be backed to open the batting in the Proteas’ final pool match against the UAE.

AB a freakish talent

The Proteas will win the World Cup if AB de Villiers continues on his current batting course.

SA can turn things around

While the loss to India exposed some flawed tactics and selections, there is still time for South Africa to set things right.

Proteas must take fight to India

The South African quicks will need to be more aggressive against Virat Kohli and company at the MCG on Sunday.

AB inspires confidence

AB de Villiers’s leadership and man management will stand up to scrutiny at the World Cup.

Stick with the best

The Proteas’ best XI must be backed to adapt to the varying pitch conditions in Australia and New Zealand.

Rilee’s the man

The Proteas must bat Rilee Rossouw at No 7 and back JP Duminy to bowl a full quota of 10 overs.

In with a shout

They’re co-hosts of the World Cup and, let it be noted, Australia is a difficult place to tour.

McLaren’s CWC absence will be felt

The omission of Ryan McLaren from the World Cup squad is a bad choice. He has been good over a long time.

Harmer’s fine start

The Proteas have a gem in Simon Harmer and would do well to polish him in the coming years.

Morkel’s the man

The Proteas must bowl first in the third Test at Newlands and give the ball to the red-hot Morné Morkel.

Alviro must deliver

Another mediocre summer should see Alviro Petersen making way for Quinton de Kock at the top of the order.

Test squad unbalanced

The Proteas’ selectors have missed a trick by not picking David Miller, Rilee Rossouw, and Imran Tahir in the Test squad.

Show must go on

I, like the rest of world cricket, am very saddened by the death of Phil Hughes. He was a superb cricketer.

Keep things simple

South Africa’s ODI series loss to Australia is disappointing. The games were close but the Proteas are losing too many.
