The Nyamandhlovu Cleft Stick and Messenger has been silent lately, in the
hope that Thabo Mbeki will learn that if he really must practice quiet
diplomacy, then the best way to do it is to shut the fuck up.
However, notes stolen from the desk of Mr Boundary Machaba, the cricketing
reporter, reveal that the South African cricket selectors have been worried
about the fitness of star fast bowler Alan Donald.
Donald has reportedly been suffering from a buttock strain, but has now been
declared fit.
Asked for comment, Donald said, "Ag, no man, it was just a pain in the
arse."
President Mbeki denied responsibility.
