    If this was Kohli then I agree totally. What was he whinging at the umpire for? He’s my least favourite cricketer comfortably. He replaced Tendulkar as a great batsman, but as a person he’s not half of what Sachin was

    It was mate, I also have him top of my dislike list, and I was once a fan of his , but his antics are pathetic and have no place in the modern game.

    I like him off the field - when you hear him talk about the game, his passion shines through. On the field however - he's up there with Warner, Labuschagne and Smith as faces you'd never tire of punching

    There's a few single tickets (probably returns) come up for the SA T20 at Durham, might be a couple next to each other in different rows if you know what I mean. If you go on the website it's all greyed out on the stadium map but if you go to the drop down for each section on right hand side you can see where they are in each section. Got myself a couple, really looking forward to it!

    Is that on the 19th? It's 50 over rather than T20 isn't it?

    I agree, as long as they manage his workload.

    Shhhhh! We’ve started pretty well. It’s certainly doable. Tough as, imo, these have the best bowling attack in the world (or very close to). Going to be great to watch and I can’t watch it tomorrow as I’m training a group of hospital consultants all day!!

    That'll be fun. I thought they all got their secretaries and underlings to do their IT for them, unless it affects pay etc.
