Sixteen years later, another of their pupils is ready to represent South Africa. His name is Richard Levi. To say he has big shoes to fill is an understatement. "Jacques is probably the best cricketer in the world today, it is amazing to see a pedestal," Levi said. "We are totally different players, but which are farmed in the culture of Wynberg, we have both appreciate and respect the game. Unfortunately I will not be able to play with him, which I was really excited, but I hope one day soon. " Levi is the only player without a cap Twenty20 squad in South Africa and is an award-winning home run charts at the end of the third and twenty of the competition, where he made 258 runs with three half centuries. He too was impressed with the Cape Cobras first match in the Champions League T20 with a fluent 43 off 27 balls. His international career was threatened, even before you start, when he was struck by Wayne Parnell bouncer during training on Monday. "I had seven stitches on his head, but the other guys, and everyone else gave me I'm fine now," he said. Although Levi was not told what his role would be, if it is in the starting lineup, he could open the stick with Graeme Smith and Hashim Amla is or bat at number 3 or 4 AB de Villiers absence. This is an exciting prospect for a beginner and some hope Levi enjoy. "If I am chosen over the next two games, it will be an incredible experience. I will try to gather the youth and exuberance and the setting as much energy as possible. " While South Africa could be a bloody new operator of Levi, the series could also teach the old hands with new skills. Morne Morkel is to lead the attack rate as Dale Steyn is an international Twenty20 rest, and Morkel says he is working toward a leading role for some time. "It 'one of those things, which I directed," he said. "If one day something happens to Dale, I must be ready to lead the attack. In the last two seasons that I grew up, then you are ready for this." Morkel has played in two first class matches since the start of the season, throwing a ball short of 57 overs and took six wickets.

With the superior bowler Morkel fast an interesting contest is expected between him and his partner David Warner Delhi Temerarios, who comes back to centuries ago in New South Wales in the Champions League. Morkel is ready to accept battle. "The most important thing is not to step back and fight fire with fire," he said. "Let's see who can win this battle here the conditions are completely different. This is something that Australians have to get used to the preparation and, especially after India played, so hopefully we can get the upper hand there ". One of the bowlers who will support Morkel is left Arm Lonwabo Tsostobe. He made a positive impression of the series against India earlier this year and want to make it grow. Tsotsobe said he sees the new season as a chance to make a "fresh start" and that the culture of the South African team has created the conditions for it to do so. "We have guys like Morne Morkel and Dale Steyn;. Whatever you do wrong, they always support you up is the team culture that people you raise, "he said. "They want you to be your own manager, so you do not have to wait for the captain to tell you something, you must be the leader of your own space."
