What a fantastic knock by Jansen today against India in the 2nd test... Got out for 93 in the end. Would have been so nice to see his hundred but nervous nineties did the trick in the end...

He is the spiritual successor to Morne Morkel. And actually has some ability with the bat too.

The way he went after Kuldeep and Jadeja, I don't think India saw that coming. They were a bit shellshocked probably. He played some eye-catching shots off Bumrah too. Mostly though it was great to see that level of confidence from someone who is known more for his bowling ability.

It is so hard for a left arm pacer in Asia when there is no New ball swing, no great reverse swing. But still he was so good. I wasn't expecting so much from him in that match.

He seems like a faster version of Broad actually. Morkel was pretty weak mentally. Jansen likes to go after the batters.

Benefits of putting hard yards in the nets and domestics. Something Shaheen should look to emulate as well.

South Africa finally have a left arm pacer. Can they weave the magic in ODI or T20 World Cup next time?

Nah Morkel was fantastic. Without Morkel that pace-attack with Steyn and Philander wouldn't have been as potent and effective. I always rated him much more highly than Broad, who was a confidence bowler that relied too much on conditions being in his favor. Morkel with the natural bounce he generated was always a nightmare for batters
The difference between Shaheen and Jansen as he so wonderfully showed in this match is that Jansen brings in other modes of dismissal when plan A is not available. The short ball ploy was executed beautifully
Shaheen is pretty useless if the ball’s not swinging.
For a tall guy, he just does not utilise it at all

Playing so much white-ball cricket has given Shaheen brain-rot. He even uses the short-ball defensively...when he feels a batsman trying to go after him, he bowls a bumper to keep them honest. Shaheen has shown very little respect for the game with the amount of red-ball cricket he has played in the last couple of years. And if you don't respect the game you get nowhere.
I don't see Jansen playing useless bilaterals. But when South Africa are playing an important match; be it red-ball or white-ball, he is almost always playing and trying to make an impact.

Unless he wasn't confident. Morkel without confidence was a very dispatchable bowler.

25-ball half-century for Marco Jansen as SA chase a 350-run target vs India in 1st ODI.
