Even with England missing a few regulars, at the start of a World Cup year, this series undoubtedly meant something to both sides. England, woefully out of ODI form, needed to start gathering momentum. South Africa needed wins just to automatically qualify.

The Guerilla Cricket PodcastGuerillashire - Duncan Hamilton
Neville Cardus’ two great passions were music and cricket. He described how one majestic stroke maker ‘made music’ and ‘spread beauty’ with his bat. Between the two wars, he became the laureate of cricket by doing the same with words.
In this latest Guerillashire, Tony Bishop interviews multi award winning author Duncan Hamilton, who in ‘The Great Romantic’, casts a new light on the enigmatic Cardus and demonstrates how he changed spots journalism for ever.
Along with Annie Chave, the discussion also covers Hamilton’s life and work, including ‘Kings of Summer’ a treasure of a book that takes us back to the final game...2020-01-201h 08
The Guerilla Cricket PodcastWhy Is KG The Only One?In the first Guerilla Cricket Podcast of 2020, we have some big questions to answer. In matters purely of willow and leather, there's the vexed issue of mandatory 4 day Tests, and a South Africa v England Test series heading into its 3rd Test finely poised.
But we don't have the luxury of keeping it inside the boundary - with the Proteas' commitment to transforming what was for so long an all-white cricketing culture under question, host Nakul Pande and (live from Port Elizabeth) Daniel Gallan work out what's gone wrong and how it might be put right.
