Rain led to the abandonment of the first day with South Africa losing two wickets in 12 overs
Still waiting for our start. There’s very light rain at the ground, not enough to bother many of the spectators, but you can’t start a game until it’s perfectly dry, so say the playing conditions.
I like all the changes for South Africa. It’s great that Tristan Stubbs wants to be a Test player, given all his attention from the franchise circuit, but he didn’t look up to speed in Durban, where Breetzke really did take it up to the Aussies in the one-day series, and looked to have a lot to offer technically as well as in attitude.
