***Official*** India in South Africa 2021-22

Kyle v averages over 50 at fc level out of his depth you mad. He needs time

I could pull out hundreds of batsmen averaging that in FC gams who did not average anywhere close in test cricket. My point is, the TEST team is weak, in particular the batting. The batting is either outright rubbish or inexperienced. What is your point?

Hundreds? Go on then......

why are ashwin and saini in the one day squad, kuldeep and natrajan would be better picks

Saini replaced Siraj. Natarajan and Kuldeep are injured/out of form. Ashwin is there coz our ****ing selectors cannot differentiate between T20s and ODs. Ashwin is a gun T20 bowler and a great test bowler but an average ODI bowler but for some reason this simple thing is beyond the reasoning of our selectors.

Kinda miss Nattu not playing, I liked him very much in that aus tour.

Damn,I know SA aren't the strongest Test side around but they just chased 200+ twice. Give them some dues.

He is only here to hate on India dude. Check all his posts and then put him on ignore. SA have been immense this series, especially the Cape Town test.

Nattu, Bumrah & Bhuvi, I wish these three are our three main pacers in ICC tournaments. All three are excellent at death bowling and keeping it tight with the new ball.

Kyle deserves 15 innings to judge before we know, not 5.

Bhuvi with his 125 kph thunderbolts is most useless of them. We dropped a in form Shami for him in WC SF & were outbowled in PP yet again.
I think we have worst stats for a team in PP since 2019 WC.. And that says something. We have to pick players who look for wickets up front. Giving Siraj or Prasidh a go seems reasonable atm over Bhuvi.

 

[Apex Predator]

With KLR opening very tough to see Kishan or Ruturaj getting a game. Dhawan despite a horrible VHT is still there. SA bowling attack looks so weak but I bet India will play a safety first line up.

 

[StephenZA]

I really hoped they would play Hamza... little disappointed.

Saw Pant talking to De Kock, wondering if he is offering babysitting services

If Pant was on De Kock, there wont have been a baby to sit anyways.

 

[anil1405]

Anyone else hearing that annoying sounds in the background of the telecast?

 

[eroticfishcake]

Bhuvi again

 

[Apex Predator]

Bishnoi would have been real handful here. Another poor call by selectors. Ashwin in ODIs doesn't makes sense at 36 years of age. Dhawan should have binned earlier.

 

[Apex Predator]

Why didn't they use the same venues of the Test series? This looks like secondary venue. Small boundary slowish pitch. Host games at Durban Wanderers instead.
