Careless South Africa show their subcontinental frailties
Their batsmen struggled yet again to strike a balance between attack and defence on a turning pitch

https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/pak-vs-sa-1st-test-careless-south-africa-show-their-subcontinental-frailties-1249321

"When South Africa assess what went wrong they will have to acknowledge that only one of the 10 wickets that fell was to a ball that turned. Faf du Plessis was on the receiving end of a beautifully flighted Yasir Shah delivery, that drifted in and turned away as he pushed at it. Everyone else could have done better, and they know it.

"It's an under-par score on that pitch," Dean Elgar said.
...

But de Kock had only faced 22 balls when he decided to try and take on the bowling more aggressively and hit Nauman over cow corner. And he got it wrong. If South Africa had been 330 for 3 on the second morning and de Kock had played that shot, no matter, but they were 133 for 3, and not even halfway through the second session on the first day.
...

It's almost as though Bavuma's approach is the opposite of de Kock's. "Stay in until you get out," which means he is prone to batting himself into a standstill, literally. He does not put away poor balls that deserve to be hit and he needs to rotate strike more so his scoring increases and he can avoid dismissals like the one we saw today. Bavuma was run-out having miscalculated a second run..."

I must check Shah's overall Test record. We know Steve Smith is his bunny (Shah's seven-fingered salute reminded everyone), but has he taken 100s of other Test wickets?

He seems not bad with the bat for a number 11. He did score a Test century against Oz on a standard very very flat Oz pitch last time they toured Oz. 38*(37) here was probably an equally good innings. Wink
