***Official*** South Africa in India 2015

[Niall]

Why won't India give a chance to the likes of Hooda, Gurkeet? They need a finisher, not a guy like Rahane stinking it up down the order.

Stone age cricket from India for a long time now.

Heck even England have copped on you need hitters down the order.

 

[Contra]

LOL Harby sending Axar back cuz he wants to have a go at Tahir

 

[smash84]

yeah overs 30 to 40 really put india off track .Extremely slow in that period

 

[Prince EWS]

Seriously sharp glovework; I actually thought he got bowled.

 

[SeamUp]

Was waiting to see if our batting at the end of our innings was **** or not. But I guess it has proven here how tough it became to get the ball away once it got soft.

Should have sealed the series in this game after throwing the last game way with so many soft dismissals when we thought it would be an easy chase.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

let's have a walk in the park

 

[Contra]

Amla's been terrible in the field today.

 

[Prince EWS]

Steyn bowls a rare half volley so Axe decides to run down the wicket and towards leg to make it an awesome yorker. Top batting.

 

[Daemon]

**** the dj at this ground should be dragged out to the middle and made to face morkel and steyn without protection

 

[Arjun]

The decision to drop Umesh Yadav is now a Mike Gatting Reverse Sweep. What were they thinking? They've dropped their best bowler for over a year just because of a few fours hit. They persisted with two so-called fast bowlers who can't take wickets. On the other side, all four frontline bowlers are getting plenty of wickets, stifling the batting side. Ultimately the batting side gets blamed for something they couldn't do much about because the management picked two feeble bowlers.

Tough luck expecting India to win matches and develop top-notch pace bowlers if they run their team like this.

 

[Daemon]

morkel is such a giraffe in the field

 

[Contra]

Kohli and Dhoni messed up during the second part of their partnership but Rahane and Raina deserve equal criticism, seriously guys the RR was hovering around 9-10 an over not frigging 12-13. Just had to play and give yourself a chance instead of hacking it from ball one.

 

[Pratters]

Rayudu would not have let this happen obviously guys.

 

[Burner]

This is was not the bowlers' fault. The batsmen played from 30th over to 39th over at a run rate of 3. That's not what you would want to do while you are chasing 270. Given, SA bowled exceptionally .

 

[cnerd123]

Yadav deserved to be dropped. He was bowling ****.
Mohit and Bhuvi did a lot better than their figures suggest. They bowled at the trickiest stages of the innings and bowled better spells than Yadav has managed this entire series.
The spinners were excellent too.

The batsmen lost this game. The bowlers deserve no blame. They did a really good job.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Rayudu would not have let this happen obviously guys.

Yeah I would legit drop Rahane for Rayudu now.

 

[Daemon]

stacking the legside and bowling length on middle seems like a decent tactic

 

[smash84]

this should have been in the bag for india. They were ahead of the target up until the 30th over and had 8 freaking wickets until the 40th

 

[Pratters]

Lol Axar last ball six. That should keep him in the squad a bit more.

 

[OverratedSanity]

lolololol
