***Official*** India Tour of South Africa, 2023/24

Some quality shots from Markram so far in this innings.

Also, he was quite unlucky not to get a 100+ score in the 2nd innings of the 1st match. Only if someone had stuck in, he wouldn’t have needed to take the risk every ball

Same for Jansen, could also have had a 100.

Not a great start from India tbh. Dropped short too often. Markram putting it away nicely though.

I guess we did miss one eyed biased RSA poster here.... Given how good RSA posters in general in this forum are.

Siraj is always excitable. Bumrah is the real disappointment so far.

Mukesh to the haters

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

Mukesh deserved that

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Thank you Elgar

Lmao okay

A standing ovation for Dean Elgar. He served South African cricket really good over the years

 

[OverratedSanity]

What is this wholesome handshake shite. Send him off ffs kohli.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

The collapse to start here

 

[honestbharani]

Yeah think he should have had a guard of honor tbh. Absolute stalwart for RSA. Well played, Dean. Hope you enjoy your retired life.


We have a tradition of doing well under gutsy nuggety overseas left handed openers as coach. Gotta sound out Elgar and see if he can be our coach soon.

I mean, the MCG test combo was fine IMO. Its when we insist on 4 rabbits among the 5 bowlers that the problem starts.

Yeah I think that's more what I'm referring to. Having a non-tail in Australia just doesn't pay in the long run, especially when you consider that lower-order runs was the series difference in the last one.

And even there we had 3 #11s.

Piss weak bumrah being out bowled by noob Mukesh

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

I like this push that Mukesh Kumar is getting. He looks the real deal, a bowler’s bowler.

Yep, he passes the eye test

 

[King Kane]

Not a great way for Elgar to finish his test career not many test batsmen bow out on a high though, even Bradman finished his test career on a duck.

 

[cnerd123]

Is this pitch even fit for Test cricket

 

[honestbharani]

Yep, he passes the eye test

Called it a while back sir. He can play all formats too. Sucks that he sucks as a fielder and batsman. Hopefully he can improve in both like Bumrah and Arshdeep have done.
