Although he can occupy the crease (something nobody else seems to be able to do), he can't dominate and doesn't look good enough to make daddy hundreds. He has averaged 30ish, having toured India and New Zealand (before they kicked on a bit), and that average is inflated by back to back 100s against NZ. In his 8 innings against India, he made one notable score - 57. I suspect he'd be completely owned by the South Africans and for that reason would prefer to take the more experienced Carberry who hasn't been given anything like the opportunity afforded to Compton.I fancy Nick Compton would be ahead of him in the pecking order. The fact Compton was born in South Africa and started playing there, his father and uncle both playing for Natal, makes this a good fit.
