***Official*** India in South Africa 2013/14

always a pleasure to see Kohli get out for a duck. Is such a ****.

Rohit looking solid

 

[JontyPanesar]

C'mon Rohit and Ajinkya! I've woken up on 5 hours of sleep to watch you two bat.

 

[kyear2]

S.A bowling beautifully here. Totally different proposition here than in the last series.

 

[Jono]

Unfair. Nice delivery.

Backfoot defence outside off is looking like a glaring weakness for Kohli.
Edit: why the **** was he opening the face?

Unfair? What you on about, just said I stayed up to see Steyn vs. Kohli. If Kohli was going to go out the whole point was I was hoping it'd be to Steyn. Not ****ing Lonwabo.

 

[Jono]

oh ffs.

 

[JontyPanesar]

Oh crap, c'mon Rohit. I don't really blame him too much for that though. He got out playing a shot that he had latched on too. Good catch from Amla

Gotcha

 

[Jono]

amazing reflexes from the great man. But that just killed this match.

 

[JontyPanesar]

Rohit's array of shots got the best of him trying to pull that off a length.

Rahane looking good thus far

 

[BoyBrumby]

Rahane looking good thus far

Jinx duly applied, I think.

Mind you, he's missed the ball by a good coupla inches there...

 

[JontyPanesar]

Oh FFS

 

[OverratedSanity]

Not out imo... Looked like a "Oh**** it's a wide... I'll appeal to fool the umpire" move from the keeper

Rahane looking good thus far

**** you

 

[JontyPanesar]

It was still an accurate statement. Someone should have told the Indians not to go for the win in these first two matches. Just get as much crease time as possible so that they're well-adjusted to conditions and better prepared for the tests.

 

[silentstriker]

India are going to be demolished when the Test series begins. No Dravid, no Tendulkar....

Indian batting looking more like Pakistani batting here

ok, maybe not quite as bad

 

[Cabinet96]

Am yet to see an angle where it looked like he was in the same postcode. Shameful.

Yeah, Rohit and Rahane don't deserve that insult.

A beautifully crafted 8, yes.

 

[kyear2]

Such a wonderful catch from Amla.

As for the last dismissal India have only themselves to blame. The technology is there. Use it.
There did seem to be a noise those. Both teams with harsh decisions now.

If only there was some kind of etcetera, etcetera...

Strangled by his own necklace, it seems.
