Good to see @amlahash and @ABdeVilliers17 leading the resistance. When a team is in strife, the senior players must show the way.

As an Indian, I am glad this Newlands model of Hashim Amla decided to stay home for the India tests.

I wonder how many thousands of neutrals are delighted to see Amla making runs again. #SAvENG

Amla's return to form is best thing that's happened to South African cricket in some while. Actually, should delight all lovers of the game

Amla now middling them at the non-striker's end. Definitely back in nick.
