That's a bizzare schedule. T20 warm ups? Four ODIs?

England will win the Test Series 4-0 after thrashing Australia 5-0. Kevin Pietersen will score a hundred in every Test match, with Ian Bell making a double ton in the first plus another 2 hundreds later in the series. Stuart Broad will take 4 5 wicket hauls, and Steve Harmison will have found his 90mph+ form and bounce the Saffa's out for under 100 on at least one occassion.

What? We've got to be optimistic :p

There should be more than one else Joburg will get each and every t20 every time. Good to see Centurion gets 3 international games on this tour.

BTW. There were initially 5 tests but England asked SA to cancel the 5th test.

Especially not a two different venues!
Not agreeing with you here Lee. If you are going to have 2 matches at the same venue then that is a waste. It might seem pointless to you when you are sitting in your armchair watching on Sky where it makes sod all difference where they play, but at least it gives Local fans a chance to see more matches live. Pity they aren't at different stadiums to the One Day games though.
If I don't go on holiday this year (have plans but nothing firm) then might have to look into popping on a plane and heading south. Not so far south though or I might end up watching those flightless birds instead, penguins?
