True and that was against SA too wasn't it? In the series Laxman and Dravid were injured. Still, he scored fifty in that 1 innings and about five in the other 2. Not particularly impressive. Obviously it is a ridiculously small sample size to come to any meaningful conclusion but he looked pretty rubbish too for mine. Not only in the couple of tests he played but also in the handful of ODIs he played. Just seemed to be totally out of his depth.

Steyn's terminal decline begins. You heard it here first.
Seriously though it's bittersweet seeing him being bashed around because I was telling all my friends he'd rip us apart like the last tour, while they were confident Kohli and Pujara would handle him.... and then this happens.
It's weird because every time I watch him bowl, I want him to destroy the opposition, even if it's us

Yeah I was hanging out for a sub-50 score (nothing personal, they're just fun to watch when not involving your own teamSteyn's terminal decline begins. You heard it here first.

) but he's just missing a bit at the moment. Hard to pin down.He doesn't seem to have quite the same control, and has trouble sticking to that really dangerous attacking length at the moment. It might just not be coming out of the hand properly, a simple form issue that could fix itself in one innings.

Steyn said that the Indian batsmen were scared, and all these things happening after that comment would have made him really frustated.Steyn's terminal decline begins. You heard it here first.

And it was a brave prediction. Kudos.
