Albie Morkel has finally, signed a long-term contract with PUMA. He will be wearing PUMA footwear and full protection gear, as well as wear PUMA sportlifestyle ranges off the pitch. Now PUMA has both Morkel brothers on long-term contracts. Morne Morkel having signed a similar deal with PUMA in December 2008. He has joined some other Protea players, Herschelle Gibbs, Makhaya Ntini, Ashwell Prince, AB de Villiers, JP Duminy, Robin Peterson and Neil McKenzie, who also associate themselves with PUMA.
“We are extremely proud to welcome Albie to the PUMA family. His exceptional performances over the past seasons have certainly drawn our attention and we are excited to have him endorsed by PUMA. Albie will promote the Iridium cricket line,” says Brett Bellinger, Marketing Director PUMA South Africa.
Why couldn't PUMA be the Proteas' new kit supplier. Honestly, the Reeboks look terrible.

Birthday boy, Titans & Super Kings player. Morne Morkel's big brother. South Africa's Player of the Year 2008 and claimed by Amy S.
I think Albie Morkel is South Africa's best all-rounder/ saviour since Lance Klusener. The big 6 hitter. He has the record for hitting the biggest 6 in the IPL. That is 124m.
Albie's best friend is fellow Titans & SA teammate AB de Villiers. He married his first crush and will become a daddy December this year. Pretty sure the baby boy will be called Albertus. Looking forward to seeing another Morkel in the Protea team.

Cricinfo has a great Albie interview:What did you tell Morne when you were told you were replacing him for your debut Test? I didn't really say anything much. Obviously it was a big disappointment for him, but on the other hand it was happiness for me. He was supportive of me on my debut and I was supportive of him since he was dropped. We never really had any sort of competition growing up, as we are different sort of players: he is more of a strike bowler, while I'm an allrounder.

He got his knee scanned and it revealed that he has tendinitis. Which is basicly inflammation of a tendon in his knee. Albie says that the day off made a huge difference and that he is willing to play in the semi-final against the Challengers. He also said that he was in a lot of pain and that it became almost unbearable. At the end of the last 3 games he had played he struggled walking off the field.
I wonder what Mickey Arthur has got to say about this. Is it really worth it? Shouldn't he rest some more? We expect him to be in top shape for the World Cup. Michael Hussy seems to be available. Could this be the reason why Albie wants to play the semi?
Here's an interview with Albie by cricinfo.

The reason why Albie has decreased in awesomeness is because he is suffering from a knee injury. He will get a scan later today to determine the extent of his injury. He says that he has been in pain for the last 3 games. It was so bad that after each game he struggled walking off the field.Albie should rest a bit before the T20 WC. The Proteas will have a training camp on Tuesday and on Friday they will leave for England. Their first game will be against Scotland.

Looks like the Chennai Super Kings have left out Albie Morkel. I don't blame them. He hasn't been in form lately. But even though he was capable of getting some early wickets, his last 2 overs was always being hit around the ground and filled with wides and a no ball.
Not looking so great, Albie.

So finally the Kolkata Knight Riders won a second game. I have really been feeling so sad for them. They have played 10 games and only won 2. But darn it! Did they have to beat the Super Kings? Shit!!!!!!I am not impressed. WTF!? Albie? He has not been in the best of form. Well done to Brendon McCullum. A win well deserved. He played brilliantly getting 81. I love watching a game where the captain is actually taking the lead and showing his worth.
I can smell a win.

Watch out..next year your mine, baby.
Albie started drinking as soon as he knew he was doomed.
Stand up straight, shoulders back. Nobody will notice, right?
