NO! They are fielding the best team they have at this point in time. It doesn't become a B team simply because a few players are injured.

Well, I don't have a dog in the fight, so I just enjoy a good close battle without caring who wins.

I wonder if it will help at all, with the first test against India in less than 3 weeks.

Should be an interesting test series. Cricket really is a weird game when it comes to home advantage. In other news, Captain Cook steps aside ... Root incoming? |

Well, South Africa back on top in the ODI Rankings after whitewashing SL 5-0.
A tougher challenge awaits them in NZ. |
Re: The Cricket Thread
Excellent effort by the Aussies; India's last 20 tests at home, 17 wins, 3 draws and no losses. It's looking like the sequence will be broken barring a miracle. Nice pitch for Ashwin and Jadeja - and O'Keefe!
