I honestly think the Indian pacers have just tired. Harbajhan is still ok, but this was always on the cards after three tests at the end of a hot day.
They really needed to wrap up this innings quickly.

SA won't go for it either; Smith is their captain.
Drawn series a fair result. For many reasons tbh.

No...they don't. Have them bat as long as possible into tomorrow. They can't win anyway - the last thing you want is Sehwag to have to come out tonight.

Mate, we played for a draw when South Africa got to 170.

Can't be the finest anything when it comes against Ishant Sharma and Sreesanth.

Are you being facetious or just attempting a jinx? The best batting line up in the world will always have at least an outside chance to chase down 300.
I agree its very unlikely now, but to say there's no chance at all is just wrong.

Basically, India aren't at a point where they can expect to beat SA in an away series. They need a bowler of Steyn's caliber, or another one of Zaheer's caliber. Just need to accept that fact and move on with life. Steyn will show us what we're missing tomorrow.

No, not being facetious. Because:
- Dhoni won't go for it.
- Chance of Sehwag in the second innings in SA is basically nil
- If they look like they have a chance, Smith will go defensive
- If it looks like they're getting close, the overrates will slow down

Lol, just following on from the "KALLIS YOU'RE THE BEST SINCE BRADMAN" comments above.

Seriously hoping India manage to keep the run-rate down and Smith bats on a few overs into day 5.

I wonder who has more wickets in this game..?Retire from ODIs after the World Cup please Kallis. Don't give up bowling instead; then you'll just be a one-dimensional hack for the end of your career like that Tendulkar ****.
