No. The SA batsmen were distracted by a glass window that was in line with Flintoff's release point. Smith asked if they could cover it up, but both captains have to agree, Vaughan said no. SA win the match and series, Vaughan steps down as captain. Mother cricket!

Was this from @flintoff11 one of the best overs ever!? 😍

In most team events like the Ryder Cup, support is polarirising. But in #LIVGolfSouthAfrica Bryson, Rahm, Southern Guards - everyone gets a cheer. It's a celebration of quality golf on the African continent.

Stating the absolute obvious, but @livgolf_league has done to Golf what T20 did for cricket. New fans. Modernised (and god knows it needed it) playing conditions. The world's best talent, Mass appeal. Talking to today's audience in their own language. Sportainment, at its best. And the show, is wild! PGA politics aside, there is literally no downside to this for the sport. Bravo! See you at Steyn City!

Was going to clip this and share but SSS did the job. This is Outemiqua scrumhalf Fagon Hendriks scoring a brilliant individual try against Nico Malan!

@ManusLeRoux @adrian_slabbert Du Pont can pass from the base when he needs to. Getting quick ball to your fly-half and drawing defenders are 2 different things.

@SaffaStrachan @adrian_slabbert I saw Aaron started this and Du Pont basically mastered it. They do it to pull defenders and then open spaces. See how many time Du Pont passes on the run and him and Smith basically got that down to an art. Reinach is also doing this but breaks more himself.

How many top players does the DPWT bring to those three events? Answer - zero Growing the game can be many things, including taking some of the very best players in the world to regions starved of seeing elite players. LIV does not claim it's reintroducing "pro golf" to South Africa but rather is bringing elite players back to South Africa and elite players from other parts of the world as well as the South African stars. The DPWT is to be congratulated on their global vision. They just don't have the best players competing on their tour, outside the few Rolex Series event, none of which are in South Africa.

LIV’s “Lion’s Den” concept in South Africa this week. Feels like SA has a chance to be LIV’s next Adelaide. Market starved for top, top tier golf. Reportedly 90,000 tickets sold for the week

@CaptSpringbok There's a difference between the opposition knocking it on and winning a scrum/turnover penalty. The latter is worthy of a celebration.

When did English players start celebrating every turnover, scrum win and penalty? I can’t remember a time when they didn’t do this, but I’m fairly sure they never used to. Is it about getting in the opposition’s heads, or just hyping themselves up - or both? Are they actually instructed to do it?

WELL WON Team #India 🇮🇳 👏🏏 🏆 Plenty of discussion though around the pitch this morning and how it gave the bowlers literally NOTHING! Just how much of an influence does the @BCCI and did the Indian Coach have on such is the question…🧐 Many strongly suggest that the @ICC = @BCCI or ICC = BCCI - including some rather strong words from #NasserHussain and others over the last 24hrs… Even some of the players have weighed in on some of the sentiments… When a nation has now won 🏆 the @cricketworldcup already, it can easily be seen as ‘sour grapes’ so one needs to be careful, as not many are really brave enough to say 🗣️ too much because of the power around the world which Indian Cricket holds… Very easily one can find themselves ostracised from the #IPL and other areas of the game like commentary and coaching roles etc… I’ve said it for a while now, other countries all have a VOTE at the @ICC and so the question needs to be asked if there is a concern, as to just WHY 🤷‍♂️ the countries are not asking questions and voting together if needs be… For now #India are the CHAMPIONS and well done to them!!…putting aside the pitch and power off the field, there are some great players in the team and in my mind deserved to be the winners…👏 #cricket #INDvsNZ #T20WorldCup

🚨 Just in: Igor Tudor has left Tottenham Hotspur with immediate effect following the 3–1 defeat to Crystal Palace F.C.. The Spurs fanbase labeled him worse than Thomas Frank after three consecutive losses without a win or draw since his arrival. With Tottenham now closer to relegation, tensions reportedly rose among supporters in North London. Tudor has informed the club he will not continue in the role and does not want any compensation.

@damienmartyn Difficult to predict, but I do think England has a fair chance with an unbeaten record. They have also managed to win a few close games in last over finishes.

@SardieqWP I'm sure he will learn. It can't be easy for a youngster going between wing and fullback at URC level

@SaffaStrachan Young man, Jaco Williams. Such an exciting prospect. But involved in a couple of Bulls tries. This one, and the Papier one where Papier skinned him on the outside.
