Changes to my cricket dream team

As mentioned I had expected Eoin Morgan and Wayne Parnell to play in the first test match and picked them in my "Dream Team". With two 0's against their names I finished the first round of the competition with a global ranking of 1530.

I have made two changes to my side with Graeme Swann replacing Parnell and Ashwell Prince replacing Morgan. Hopefully they can come to the party in the second test match.

Dear Dream Team Manager,

This is a reminder that Round 2 of the Proteas Test Series Dream Teams starts at 10:30 SA time (08:30 GMT) on Saturday 26 December with the second Test taking place at Kingsmead in Durban.

South Africa go into the second Test with a slight upper hand after coming agonisingly close to snatching victory on the final day of the first Test. Only a desperate last stand from Paul Collingwood and Graham Onions helped England to save the match as the pair were forced to block out the final 20 deliveries of the match.

Debutant fast bowler Friedel de Wet initiated the collapse as England lost five wickets for the addition of just 13 runs after the second new ball was taken. De Wet sent down a superb final spell that saw the debutant pick up three for 11 off just seven overs. Despite this fine performance, his place in the side is not guaranteed with the likely return of premier fast bowler Dale Steyn and controversial retention of Makhaya Ntini in the side. England are likely to stick with the same team for the second Test with no changes expected.
