*Official* South Africa in India

[Sir Alex]

Loved how the umpire called off negative line from Harris. However regardless of the wides it almost got the desired result from Sehwag. This is test cricket at it's best. Both teams doing stuff to justify why this is a championship clash.

You still feel if SA can snuff out a wicket, anything could happen. They'd take a 100 run deficit probably, and just bat India out of the game.

Huge final session here.

 

[silentstriker]

Definitely, India need much more than a 100 run lead.

Reckon that's a given. If India lose 8 for 120 South Africa would be so pumped. Will not happen.

 

[R_D]

Agree..

Ideally India would love to score 550+ here... So they aren't chasing a big score to win... its always tough to bat in 4th innings here.

**** you for jinxing us.

If a wicket falls now *shake fists*

Steyn needs to take another 5 for 3.

 

[Jono]

I don't mind Steyn taking 5 for 3 when India have a 300 runs lead

[Burgey]

TBF, he's summed things up pretty damn well....

 

[social]

Saffies are bowling absolute garbage now and seem to be relying on the batsmen losing patience as their only means of taking a wicket

Sachin now has 6000 runs in India at an average of 56.07.

Role reversal from the first test.

 

[Jono]

Viru averages 91 vs. South Africa in India. That's ridiculous.

 

[Shri]

13th 150+ score for Sehwag in test cricket.

 

[Briony]

Both tests seem to have been mismatches to date. Poor batting from SA though on what looks like to be a good strip. Their middle order maybe was a bit brittle without Boucher to bolster them and Prince, JP and Smith are all in disgusting form.

 

[Jono]

13th 150+ score for Sehwag in test cricket.

What's the record?

 

[Xuhaib]

can't wait for the highlights tonight.SA without Steyn firing were always bound to struggle those who are watching how is Parnell bowling his fighures look ****e but that Veeru can do to any bowler.

Watched him bowl a bit just now. Didn't see him bowl when the ball was new. He just looked flat to me in the over that I saw. Hit a good length and was bowling not too special deliveries outside off.

Wow Gavaskar reminds me of SilentStriker so much.

Sachin picked up the ball for Parnel.

Gavaskar says "why do that, the bowler may injure his back trying to pick it up. They're then one bowler short"

GAGF!
