In the Independent Online, Zaahier Adams says that when an individual within the Proteas ranks does get caught up in the spotlight like JP Duminy has over the past two months, it really is something to behold. In a rugby-mad nation, Duminy's every performance in the Indian Premier League will be scrutinised with a microscope.
After his heroics in Australia, everybody now expects him to score at least a half-century when he walks to the crease.He probably expects nothing less from himself, but the pressure will mount when he doesn't. And, yes, it's rich coming from a media representative who calls Duminy a "superstar", but that is also why I'm writing this column.
