Mark Nicholas…We are waiting for the apology

Thu, Oct 22, '26 at 10:16 AM

That blabbering bloke was a nattering nabob of negativism about Temba Bavuma’s captaincy throughout the test match..

He criticized Temba for his decision to enforce the follow-on. Said it would have been better for the Saffies to bat again. Apparently he forgot that the Saffies neeeded as many overs as possible at the Aussies as possible. Can you imagine if the Saffies had batted again and then lost the entire pre-lunch session to rain as happened today? The same Nicholas would have ripped the decision to shreds.

He criticized Temba for bowling Mulder instead of Rabada or Jansen. The very next delivery Mulder cleaned up Scottie Boland and then Cummins shortly thereafter. Nicholas didnt missed a beat. He immediately started talking about how great Mulder was…shameless..

Nicholas although not a Saffie is simply echoing a large segment of the apartheid descendants who refuse to accept that a guy with the pigmentation of Temba can be their skipper..and not only that - has the best record of any Saffie skipper in history…

That's usually a statement made by a racist.
