Proteas stay true to form

What is all the fuss? The Proteas are playing true to form in T20.

We have only 2 batsmen listed in the top flight: Graham Smith is ranked at number 10 and JP Duminy at No 12.

Our top bowlers, Morkel and Steyn, rank 10th and 11th respectively. Compare this to Pakistan: Gul, Ajmal and Afridi rank No1, 2 and 3 in the world.

Until The Proteas swallow humble pie and take T20 seriously, we will continue to be pretenders.
We live in a world where facts and fiction get blurred
