Buvama is promised king for Proteas' fire. Lol
Won WTC, won against Aussie at home and now secured the ODI series against England in their own backyard. Hope they don't this " promised king" literally and stage his comeback in T-20 too.
His individual stats are not that great, BTW. But now CSA has backtracked on their radical racial transformation targets and therefore I am not going to focus on that a lot. They have a well balanced team at this point, and the team bonding also looks quite good. The batsmen are in good form, and pacers are also taking wickets and being miserly. Keshav Maharaj is also in his career peak. And most importantly, they have a lot of players in their 20s, unlike the case with Australia. I am talking about players such as Matthew Breetzke, Ryan Rickelton, Tristan Stubbs and Dewald Brevis.
In red ball, if you look at overall batting unit of Proteas' then he's not misfit and does provide some assurance in the middle order and in ODI he's not that bad.
Not going into their retarded policy but overall, with new talent showing up. Their team seems to building up nicely so they are surely on uptrend.
