Marsh says it’s a good surface and feels it’s a hard ground to defend. Zampa comes back in, Neser in for Abbott. Interesting balance between winning the series and trying out players. So much cricket ahead, guys need to get game time. Taking wickets with the ball is key as batters take off late after they’re set.
Markram says they’d have chased but it wouldn’t matter ‘cos it’s a good wicket. Says they batted well in the last game and hopes that the batters to do well again. Lots to balance, Temba misses out. Shamsi’s being rested. KG and Lungi are back in. Anything around 300, 320 would be a good score.
