***Official*** Australia in South Africa 2018

You keep trying. SA have lost their last away series in India, England and lost home series against England not to mention get humiliated on a designer greentop pitch for revenge at the Wanderers :laugh:. If SA can defeat this sandpaper-less/Smith-less/Warner-less team at home which they had never done before for god knows how long then anything is possible. Don't be presumptuous. I know you guys wanted revenge for 2015 and are hurting from the greentop designer pitch debacle at the Wanderer's not to mention the ODI/T20 walloping and numerous ICC tourney knockouts at the hands of India so I'll let it slide.
These 'Indian Cricket Fans Forum" trolls 8-). Your superstars got thrashed by Australia on a designer dustbowl in Pune by Steve O'Keefe, a guy who can't even get a game for Australia now, or have you forgotten? Were in big trouble in the second test in Bangalore too, before Australia choked from a winning position. Only won their home series vs Aus by 2-1, whereas South Africa won theirs by 3-1, obviously proving them to be the superior team :D.

Don't worry you'll get to see the so-called number one side India thrashed again by a very mediocre England with King Kohli regularly nicking off to some county trundler like Toby Roland-Jones. Just don't disappear when it happens. :D

Ah! The much awaited title bout for the undisputed championship between Tec15 and Motorwada.
This is going to be a lot more interesting than anything that cricket can conjure up.

Projecting much? Last I checked it was SA who was thrashed by a mediocre england side (who had just lost 0-4 to India) and had their batsmen nicking off to county trundler Toby Roland Jones.

And only reason SA won 3-1 is cause Smith/Warner got banned due to clever cameramen. If we had Smith banned post brainfade in Bangalore we would have won the 3rd test too as Smith would'nt have hit his unbeaten century there. So I will concede that SA have better cameramen than India and that is the only thing they are better at, cricket no chance.

Motorwada is as much competition as India in South Africa, Australia or England. Which is to to say none at all.:D

Smith and Warner only missed the last Test. Do you really think those two, and Bancroft, would have been enough to win at Wanderers?

Smith averaged only 23 in this series genius. Him not being suspended wouldn't have changed a thing. SA can handle him just fine, unlike the much vaunted Indian attack against whom he averages 84.:happy:

Tec15/Motorwada/Singh767/Marius, may I ask you a question? What do you guys have to say about William Shakespeare?

I think it's fair to say that coming into this series, it was advertised as RSA pace vs Oz pace. Needless to say RSA > Oz.

Rubbish. You seem to be weak at maths. Causality does not imply correlation. These guys had good records and by the law of averages would have smashed SA at the Wanderers.

Tbf, in a Test where the team quite openly doesn't want to be playing, then it would still at least be interesting and far from certain.

Seems like KG and Paddy C formed a bromance by KGs latest insta post.

Best two young quicks in the world :happy:

No doubt.

I suppose the upper hand we had was funding chinks in the armer with regular types of dismissals or to certain types of bowler for both.

But give me Warner and Smith to see a contest that is for sure.

Bit overrated, some good plays but some dross too.
That is somewhat disappointing.
I was really hoping for something along the lines of: 'Put him on a cricket field in front of the SA/India (strike off as appropriate) and we'll moider the bum.'
