[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 159140"] Well SA haven`t been too convincing in test cricket since Arthur took over the reins from Jennings as coach. Our top order has been suspect for the last 18 months, and only some very good form from Kallis and Prince in 2006 papered over those cracks. A fully fit Bond, on the faster and harder SA surfaces, might just ask a couple of very interesting questions if Smith, Gibbs, De Villiers and Amla don`t get their obvious technical flaws sorted asap. So I don`t think it`ll be all smooth sailing really. If Arthur can build on some of the bolder selections for the Pakistan tour, give Harris, Steyn and maybe one of the Morkels or Philander a bit of a show with the ball, we might be in for some fun. But I suspect that it`ll be back to the tried and tested, although last really effective in 2000, Polly to take the new ball at home. And that`ll be a mistake. [/QUOTE]
