“Bad luck.” It seemed the decent thing to say to Kyle Verreynne as he trudged within earshot, carrying his batting gear, across the St George’s Park outfield towards the nets on Thursday. He stopped and asked, “For what?”
“For losing the gloves.”
It would have been too harsh to add the greater loss, so that remained unsaid.
The day was dazzlingly bright and - rarely for these parts - all but windless; a perfect day for cricket. Verreynne won’t be playing any in anger over the next few days, even though the second Test between South Africa and Australia starts on Sunday.
