Why morkel was dropped

Should he be charged for the same offence — a Level 2 breach of the ICC Code of Conduct — Rabada, who has already been suspended one Test and has five demerit points on his disciplinary record, would be suspended for two Tests and miss the remainder of the series.

Warm-up match : Australia beat South Africa A by five wickets. Report, highlights. First Test Australia won by runs. We feel that the best thing for Morne Morkel at the moment is to go back to the Titans and play a few rounds of domestic cricket.

He remains very much part of our plans going forward. The selectors have included new caps Yusuf Abdulla, the Dolphins' swing bowler, and Roelof van der Merwe, the Titans' spinning all-rounder, in a man squad for the two Pro20 internationals against Australia. It is not just a question of seeing how they do in matches but also to give the management team the chance to assess all aspects of their respective games.

I was not there then. I cannot say. There was no tension in the team. There was no choking. I just think we need to learn as a unit to play smart cricket in such situations," Simmons said. I think we have young players in certain areas and they are growing up. In that way, we will become a better unit in different conditions. We need to find balances in these aspects. I must say that we did not choke, but we were not firing in the last two games," Simmons added. In summing up his team's performance this season, Simmons said: "I must say that we showed what we can do.

I think that there are one or two tweaks that we need to make and then we will be a team to win in all conditions. That is the next choice. We take lot of positives from this tournament. The thing is to learn to bowl well in crucial and big overs. That is what champions do.
