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

Why is Mishra batting ahead of Ashwin?

Mishra over Ashwin. ITSTL.

I don't know what to say about Elgar. Saw him pick up wickets in Bangladesh (their best batsman Rahim) and now this.

Not going to get excited until the Proteas bat. Got to see both teams bat

True.. Indian spin trio could get us. But this is not a 150/6 pitch yet.

I was just came here to say just this. South Africa batting line up is quite vulnerable and a score around 230-240 and you never know.

For a team that is ranked number 1 for so long, they are capable of some crazy collapses within 1 session.

Amla bringing back Elgar, his main weapon

Good to see some South African fans posting once the tests started.. The Indian tour selection thread was getting a tad one sided

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Yes Elgar

 

[Black_Warrior]

Lol why does the South African keeper keep saying 'dean elgar' after every delivery?

 

[StephenZA]

Can you believe it!!

He's pretty good with the bat and Ashwin's form with the bat has been pretty bad recently. Apart from one decent fifty in SL, it's been ages since he did something.

Andy picked it!

It's my fault

 

[SeamUp]

Imagine a little Michelle for Deano in the first 2 sessions of a test match.

No one crazy enough could have predicted that.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Elgar could realistically end up with a 10 fer. If he's got 4 on day 1....

 

[indiaholic]

Asshole.

 

[Stapel]

Quite a thing. Having two specialist spinners, Amla brings on his part-timer first and again. The scorecard proves him quite right!

 

[StephenZA]

Elgar could realistically end up with a 10 fer.

and double hundred

 

[Black_Warrior]

I had said 230-240 because I thought Jadeja, Mishra and Ashwin are competent players with the bat.
