Sport24.co.za | PCB deny Arthur’s anger toward senior players
Cape Town – The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has denied reports that coach Mickey Arthur had heated exchanges with some of his senior players on the second day of the first Test against the Proteas in Centurion.
Reports had suggested that Arthur had a go at the experienced batsmen in his team including Asad Shafiq, Azhar Ali and captain Sarfraz Ahmed after Pakistan collapsed from 101/1 to 190 all out to hand the Proteas the initiative in the Test.

However the board has come out and said that Arthur had his normal briefing with the players and any reports of angry behaviour towards some players is “grossly exaggerated”.
The PCB said in a statement: “The Pakistan team management, led by manager Talat Ali, strongly refutes the baseless allegations levelled against head coach Mickey Arthur on his supposed angry behaviour’ at the end of day two of the ongoing Test match against South Africa in Centurion.

“As per the norm, Mickey held a debriefing meeting at the end of the day’s play which was held in a cordial atmosphere with inputs from team members and management as is the usual practice.
“Any speculation about coach’s angry behaviour towards the players is grossly exaggerated.
“The head coach, team management, captain and all team members are totally united with a singular aim of producing positive results.
“The team manager and rest of the management hopes that media would refrain from speculating on the matter.”
The tourists went on to lose the first Test by six wickets on Friday to go 1-0 down in the three-match series.

Sport24.co.za | Proteas: Ottis’s ‘four quickies’ hint
Cape Town – Back to four pacemen, and a five-strong overall attack?
Don’t write that off as a possibility for South Africa in the second Test against Pakistan at Newlands.
The Proteas on Friday completed a comfortable six-wicket triumph, well within three days, in the first clash at SuperSport Park so will be aiming to kill off the three-Test series early, in the traditional New Year fixture.
They did it in game one with a balance to their XI – on a pace-friendly surface; probably overly so – of seven batsmen and four bowlers.
But with Centurion revelation Duanne Olivier, trumpeted afterwards by captain Faf du Plessis as their “enforcer”, duly handed the player-of-the-match mantle for his figures of 11/96, the SA brains trust have a pleasant but pronounced dilemma over team composition for the next Test.
That is because Newlands-relishing bowling all-rounder Vernon Philander will almost certainly be fit for recall.
A straight swap between Olivier and Philander will still be near the forefront of discussion, cruel though it would be on the former, but head coach Ottis Gibson also dropped a telling hint when interviewed pitch-side at Centurion by the SuperSport pundits shortly after the win had been sealed.
“We want to play with four fast bowlers (whenever) we can,” he reminded, while adding the proviso that “we’ll see what we see when we get to Cape Town and assess conditions”.
That could just mean that the Proteas take the step, while not without certain risks, of trimming their batting line-up by one to ensure a seam quartet of Philander (also assuming the No 7 batting slot, with Quinton de Kock advancing to six), Olivier, Dale Steyn and Kagiso Rabada plus left-arm spinner Keshav Maharaj.
While there is still a discernible skittishness to their batting unit as a collective, positives at SuperSport Park included Temba Bavuma’s pleasing authority and technical tightness on the tricky surface, Dean Elgar’s typically gutsy second innings and – perhaps most importantly of all – veteran superstar Hashim Amla ending the game unbeaten on 63 from a 224-minute vigil that will have done wonders for his confidence after a very lean period.
If South Africa do opt to sacrifice a batsman at Newlands, the likeliest candidate now seems Theunis de Bruyn, who scored 29 and 10 in the first Test although he played some crisp, bullish strokes, while he lasted, each time.
With the batting department not exactly a notable strength for Pakistan at present – either in quality in the premier positions or depth through the order – the Proteas’ masterminds may feel that they can engineer enough runs to eclipse their opponents on that front even with one specialist left out, while giving their pacemen, especially, a lot of freedom and freshness to bomb the tourists into submission if they do go the four-strong seam route.
Bear in mind that the pitch at Newlands should be a fair bit truer for batsmen than the one presented on the Highveld over the last few days.
That would be a welcome development both for watching purists and the South African stroke-players themselves who have had to deal with a few just too lottery-like home strips over the last couple of Test seasons.
If the Proteas cut their frontline batting to six, it would be a repeat of the formula used to outsmart India (by 72 runs) in the equivalent New Year Test at Newlands last summer … which may be simply another reason to seduce them into adopting that policy again.
Likely team, if they favour that six-five formula, on January 3: Dean Elgar, Aiden Markram, Hashim Amla, Faf du Plessis (capt), Temba Bavuma, Quinton de Kock, Vernon Philander, Keshav Maharaj, Dale Steyn, Kagiso Rabada, Duanne Olivier.

News24.com | High praise for ANC’s Khabisi Mosunkutu at memorial service
Former Gauteng MEC Khabisi Mosunkutu was praised during a memorial service held in his honour in Pimville, Soweto, on Friday for his hard work and commitment.
Mosunkutu, 68, who served under several portfolios as an MEC in the province, died on December 24 after a long illness.
Among the accomplishments he was remembered for was quelling taxi violence in the province during his time as MEC for community safety.
Many taxi ranks around the province were shut down and Mosunkutu ordered taxi associations to negotiate and find common ground to end the violence.
During his 11-year tenure at the provincial legislature, from which he resigned in 2011, Mosunkutu served as MEC for community safety, public transport, roads and works as well as agriculture, conservation and environment.

Cosatu general secretary Bheki Ntshalintshali remembered Mosunkutu for his role in the formation of organisations including the United Democratic Front.
“He was also there during the formation of Cosatu. When doing these things there was no price. He did that for his love of his people. Trade unionists are not exposed in corruption and tender scandals. He will rest in peace because we all know that his name won’t be mentioned in the Zondo commission [of inquiry into state capture].
‘Courage and commitment’
“He loved the taxi industry and ensured that it progressed,” he said.
Former MEC and friend Mary Metcalfe said it was a great honour to have worked with Mosunkutu.
“I am happy that both his families, which are his family and the ANC, are here today. Mosunkutu and other leaders played a vital role in the formation of Gauteng province. It is indeed a great honour to have worked with him in the legislature where we spent sleepless nights.
“He had huge courage and commitment to liberate South Africa. He was among many leaders who gave us the opportunity to build this country for all of us. He worked very hard to understand the frustrations of our people and turned those frustrations into expressions of hope,” she said.

Metcalfe added that Mosunkutu was a trusted leader who sacrificed much without the thought of being rewarded.
ANC Women’s League provincial chairperson and MEC for sport, arts and recreation Faith Mazibuko said they had a lost a gentle giant, a leader and a father who raised many young women in the ANC.
Mazibuko said Mosunkutu never discriminated against anyone in the party.
“He was able to assist us as young women in political teachings. He was able to recognise oppression against women. He fought for women to have maternity leave with full benefits. Unlike today, where maternity [leave] is only paid for four months, the other two months are deducted from UIF (Unemployment Insurance Fund) contributions.
Representative of the people
“We want fathers to be entitled to receive payments for paternity leave too. Today, as women we are proud to have been served by him in the ANC. He represented everyone,” said Mazibuko.
ANC provincial treasurer in Gauteng Parks Tau said Mosunkutu was a representative of the people who fought for their freedoms, but that the battle was far from over.
“We can’t say we are there yet when there is an absence of opportunities which are determined by gender, race and class. We are not there yet when the African race earn a quarter of an income earned by their white counterparts,”he said.
“We are only free to vote but not free from hunger, poverty, premature mortality and illnesses simply because we are black and poor. We will only be free when we know that opportunities to prosper are equitable.”
Tau praised President Cyril Ramaphosa for bringing change and said the country was witnessing a new dawn as promised by the president.
Mosunkutu’s provincial official funeral is scheduled to take place on Thursday, January 3, in Soweto.
