Saim injured fielding on the boundary.

Getting to the WTC final would be a fluke due to easy fixtures.

TBF that's not the fault of South Africa. These were the fixtures they were given.

And they did play India in this cycle, drawing1-1.

[andy]

SA cruising 215-3 in the 3rd session..rickelton 122 not out and bavuma 66 not out

[mikesiva]

Bavuma gets his century too!

[backfootpunch]

Bavuma as captain 3 hundreds in 9 games at 58

When not captain 1 hundred in 54 games at 35

Safe to say he has become significantly better as a batsmen with the added responsibility of captainct
