***Official*** India in South Africa 2017/18

This is the only way Pandya knows to play so he may as well go for it.. even if it means risking a very stupid looking dismissal. Not going to hang around for long trying to defend his way out of these conditions against this attack.

 

[harsh.ag]

He's already the highest scorer so why the **** not

 

[Stefan9]

Let's see if he can swat kg.

 

[StephenZA]

Lets see Pandya step down the wicket to Rabada then.....

 

[Shri]

HP is the top scorer for us atm.

 

[Spark]

Just had a look at the wagon wheel and it's kind of surprising how so few runs have been scored in front of square on the offside. Surely you have to put at least some of those bad balls to the fence?

 

[Pratters]

when bcci jackasses book indian team like this, they should be asked to go and play themselves.

 

[StephenZA]

Could have kept Steyn on for an extra over....

 

[Spark]

Like that. There's been plenty of opportunities to play that shot.

 

[Pratters]

Like that. There's been plenty of opportunities to play that shot.

Were fairly defensive early on. Also, not many bad balls.

 

[Cow]

crims would lol'lapse in these conditions

 

[Pratters]

This is going to be a long and painful test match.

 

[Spark]

Were fairly defensive early on. Also, not many bad balls.

Which makes it even more important that the ones you do get are put away.

Especially when in between, that happens.

 

[SeamUp]

Bhuvi has got in behind better than batsman before him.

 

[Pup Clarke]

Missed the morning's session - how did Steyn bowl guys?

 

[Black_Warrior]

Pakistan are touring here this December. *Gulp* and that too without YK/Misbah

 

[vcs]

That ball to get Ashwin was excellent.

 

[Niall]

Country with population of a billion can't find a better keeper than Saha

Yeah not sure India when they travel can afford to carry a guy like Saha who while a good glovesman isn't someone I back to score many runs. That sort of wicket keeper isn't really wanted these days.

 

[Pratters]

lot of time left. sa can make 450 or so more over next 1.5 days and still have two days to bowl out india.

No better replacement yet for Saha. The replacements are either worse in keeping or batting.
