Pitch report | Dirk Nannes: This is a belter of a pitch. Might see a little bit of sideways nip. But largely, this is a great pitch. Going to see some big scores I expect. 70 meters straight, 73 on either side. Can feel the humidity. Will be hot, but it's going to be a run fest

Markram: Managed to get a nice series back at home. Can't control the rain, hope we get a good game in today. Don't want to blow up the competition (regards to the hype). It's a game of cricket. Bavuma has had to pop home, will be back shortly.
