Got around to the SCG. Had zero access to the South African players due to the construction work at the SCG. Only managed to get some in the nets and others after the game as they were leaving. Here's some of what I was able to get
I am going tomorrow and I am hoping I can get Donald, Kallis and Kirsten. I was assuming it would be hard to get to them due to the construction, so may be a long wait at the end of the day......
Did they leave via the back of the members area near the nets?

Yep, that's where I got those guys Some of them dashed out some other way, but the main ones basically hopped into cars outside the members area you described.
Well done on the sigs Naz. Shame about the construction. Hope the rest of you guys going cope ok with the different access.
Think the two you are unsure on are faf du plessis and Rory kleinveldt.
Think that's steyn, but looks slightly different to the ones I got this summer over here though.

Thanks Alex. Yeah, I compared Steyn's signature and it wasn't like previous ones I've seen, but I'm 100% sure I got him to sign, so he must just have had an awkward time with his own signature
Another person who had an awkward time was Hashim Amla. Poor bloke was trying to personalise items for people, but he couldn't understand the spelling of their names and fluffed a couple. When he got to me, he didn't even bother asking my name lol
Poor Hashim. He was an absolutely top gentleman over here. Scored heaps of runs but took lots of time to sign and pose for photos for everyone. Could not speak high enough of him
Not sure on steyn. Sigs do vary at times though as we all know.
Thanks man. I'm hoping there will be a trip some day to your neck of the woods. I heard some mates did really well at Manuka Oval when the Indians were there last, plus you guys did pretty well yourself, didn't you?
