Motera curator promises sporting track for 2nd Test
2008-04-01 13:56:00 Virender Sehwag, Rahul Dravid, Neil McKenzie and Hashim Amla turned out to be the heroes in Chennai as runs flowed from their bats in the first of three Tests.

Bosman Binned
2007-09-04 15:00:00 Poor Loots Bosman a man with so much to offer in this format has not recovered sufficiently to take part in the 20/20 cup. My money is on Amla to replace him, any other ideas? I am assuming that CSA is looking to keep their minimum quota number at 7. If not will Kallis get the ...
