In my video this morning, I literally warned anyone at Newlands today who was supposed to be working and these two didn’t listen. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

25 kilometres away from the world's most picturesque ground lies the other side of South Africa. How cricket is trying to be a vehicle for change, helping keep kids away from social evils of gangs, guns and drugs in one of SA’s poorest towns. #SAvAUS aapnews.aap.com.au/a/vMALXfm…

How cricket is changing Cape Town's poorest township

In the heart of Cape Town where the long-lasting impacts of Apartheid are still being felt, cricket is helping to try to create generational change.

As a lot of people have told me (and thanks for the feedback), the beer would be more expensive here at Newlands than at St George's Park. BUT, R50 is $4.27AUD and I paid $10.50AUD (R122.92) for a 375ml can of Session Ale or Japanese Mid Lager from local brewer Running With Thieves (South Fremantle, WA) at the WACA Ground (which are still great drops btw) a couple of weeks, so still so so cheap!! A much better balance between the wallet and liver here🍻 #RSAvAUS🏏 #Beer🍻 #CastleLager🍻 #CastleLite🍻 – at Cape Town, South Africa

Mitchell Starc is 36 years old, and he's just bowled a 149km/h delivery. But Kagiso Rabada at 31 years must be tested for cranking it up at 154km/h?
