Some good teams…

By Neville Smeda

This is a team of Kolpak/expats that would probably beat the current SA test team:

  1. Jacques Rudolph
  2. Jonathan Trott 
  3. Martin van Jaarsveld
  4. Kevin Pietersen
  5. HD Ackerman
  6. Dale Benkenstein(c)
  7. Lance Klusener
  8. Nic Pothas(wk)
  9. Claude Henderson
  10. Ryan McLaren
  11. Garnett Kruger

How about an all-black test team:

  1. Alviro Petersen
  2. Goolam Bodi
  3. Hashim Amla(c)
  4. JP Duminy
  5. Ashwell Prince
  6. Robin Peterson
  7. Vernon Philander
  8. Tsami Tsolekile(wk)
  9. Charl Langeveldt
  10. Makhaya Ntini
  11. Monde Zondeki

And what about an all-white test XI:

  1. Graeme Smith(c)
  2. Andrew Puttick
  3. Dean Elgar 
  4. Jacques Kallis
  5. Neil McKenzie
  6. AB de Villiers
  7. Mark Boucher(wk)
  8. Morne Morkel
  9. Paul Harris
  10. Andre Nel
  11. Dale Steyn

What if we apply the franchise regional rule to the 90’s?
