Because you seemed to disagree with my post saying there needed to be a study...?

170 odd for 5 is not a bad first innings. Kohli is still around and Ashwin can bat, I full expect India to get 250+ and win the game. SAs batsmen are so bad they will struggle to even get 150 here.
I was disagreeing that measurement tolerances are arbitrary.

That's a soft dismissal.

Jansen has destroyed us all series, serious find . What a dreadful batting lineup though.

Sadly we've been relying on them a lot.

Yeah, his action still looks a little "young MJ" in that there are a lot of moving parts, not fully refined yet. Once that's all in order he's going to be scary.

Yep. Covering for the crapness in the engine room from 3 to 5, but that's not sustainable long term

They should just try to attack now. Get to 200 as quick as they can.

Remember England winning those games a few years ago with their bat deep lineups.

Broad's batting has become an actual honest to god meme now so it's easy to forget that it genuinely won England not just Test matches but quite possibly series too

I really don't think this pitch is unplayable at all. 275-300 par afaic. I don't even think indias batsmen have done much wrong just not good enough to handle quality bowling. This might be the most consistently good Sa's attack has bowled this series.

Yeah this doesn't yell "240 par" pitch to me. Tricky but hardly unmanageable.
Plenty of value for shots too, ball clearly coming nicely onto the bat.

I doubt India are relying on Pant or Ashwin. The latter is a spinner who is a handy bat and Pant has a high score of 50 in his last 11 completed innings. Not exactly reliable.
But I repeat, SAs batting is so bad, this is not bad. Anything above 200 and I guarantee an India win.
