I found him annoying everytime he went against India. SS everyone is right, you seriously are acting like a troll, sorry to say.

We have 45 mins left. I say another 15 mins of pace then go to spin...so yeah 10th over sounds good

My motivation is this cricinfo comment, which tells us that umpires did ask the 3rd umpire who then asked the scorer, who said that there was one ball left, so it is not an umpiring mistake but the scorer's mistake.
"There has been lot of feedback about why the 7th ball was bowled. Well the answer is that we have humans doing the counting. Neither umpire was certain as to how many balls were left, and so they consulted the tv umpire, who turned to the scorer, who said that there was one ball left. Therein lies the problem. Thats sad, really"

Surely you can understand why people are annoyed though right?

Lol.
What I've found in my time on this board during Indian losses (particularly the ones that hurt the most) you've got a whole lot of different members who react differently. You have some who make excuses and blame umpires to release their frustration (sometimes justifiably, sometimes not), then you've got others who have a go at people who blame the umpires (sometimes justifiably, sometimes not), that being their way to release frustration. Overall you end up with a whole lot of angry people.
Ah well, life goes on. I've always found that during an Indian cricket loss, the worst thing is to actually be with or talk to a fellow Indian fan. There's almost always going to be an argument.

Wait guys we might have hope...

"There have been only 13 successful chases at Newlands down the years, and barring an exceptional Australian side hunting down 331 in 2001-02, no side has pursued in excess of 179. If Smith and his men are to pull off a remarkable come-from-behind series victory, they'll have to overcome the weight of history."

Even before the 10th over...things must be more dire than I thought.

Yeah you're really scraping the barrell when you bring on a bowler with 546 test wickets.

Not when he's a leg spinner and he's bowling the 8th over.
