David Bedingham

I notice they promoted him up to number 3 after getting runs at 5 in the first match. It's not his position,

They may not be an opening at 5 for SA and his chance to play is further up the order. At 30 i doubt he can be to fussy especially with the likes of Stubbs and Brevis declaring they want to play test match cricket.
 


Well done Bedders. He’s done the right thing, as I doubt he’d have been picked for England at 31. Will only improve his game playing at the top level. And he’s a pretty decent player as it is 😁

Disgraceful squad that. Handful of test caps between them so the rest can play hit and giggle bollocks

It’s not, I assume that’s the India series

This is the NZ squad

Delighted for him. Would have been good to watch.

Could be a match winning knock in a completely unexpected win.

I watched up until lunch, he looked in imperious form right the way up until then - came in with SA in bother but never looked troubled, much like when he plays for us; he seemed to be batting on a different pitch to everyone else.

Hope the SA bowlers can bring it home tonight/tomorrow, pitch was turning very sharply on Day 2 so Piedt and von Berg will be key.

pretty poor he didn’t get a SA deal when you look at some of the names

He has undoubted ability to play consistently at that level

Bonus for us I guess. Needs to play T20 for Durham, they’ve got most things right but I thought that was a really poor decision, if he was fit
