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

    The one thing that you could say is neither batting side made an effort to leave balls in the channel that would be missing off stump or bouncing over the top. However, this may be a natural result of the impulse to look to score on such decks. Very few wickets on day one were hitting the...

    He always does that unfortunately.

    Disagree on pitch - we just edge everything that moves about. South Africans can effectively play inside the line.

    To have such reliability poor batting that this match is already over should be such a sign to management that a big change is needed urgently.

    India are embarrassing away from home so often. The lack of tour game is an extra kick in the teeth of management incompetence.

    Yes - from the first few balls he's looked absolutely rock solid.

    I mean the same old story of the team, not him specifically.

    Conscious that bowling is tough in Test cricket but man, our batsmen make it look easy to bowl in Tests.

    Then it hits the edge but because its too short, it goes via soft hands for four through the slips. So frustrating.

    Just so sick of reading stuff like this... Bumrah to de Zorzi, no run Cracker of a delivery! Angles in and gets the ball to straighten to beat the outside edge. ...while the opposition racks up 350+ at 4 runs an over.

    Bumrah is same old story whenever we tour. Lots of "great balls" and plays-and-misses but no wickets. It is just so disappointing how predictable is the failure of the top order and then behind the game whenever touring in SENA.

    Not Unadkat - he could not get a wicket against West Indies. Saini is a scattergun as proven by his international career so far and his inability to take consistent FC wickets despite bowling 140kph. Mukesh worth a go but he's not exactly accurate. It is a pathetic lack of development to be...

    It is ridiculous we don't have a reserve pacer of Test quality. Prasidh is nowhere near Siraj, Bumrah or Test quality so far. Just a pathetic attempt on tour from India as usual.

    This is set for innings defeat at this rate.

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

    Just a pathetic disparity in our batting and bowling quality vs our opposition. South Africa weren't even that accurate but our batsmen are sitting ducks in moving conditions - then, now, forever!

    This is looking awful for India here. What an embarrassing performance so far by all except KL.

    Very frustrating lack of penetration from India in helpful conditions.

    Was a bit all over the place though and his five-wicket haul against SAF A was mainly tailenders so I'm sceptical.

    ***Official***Semi-Final #1- India vs New Zealand - November 15th - Wankhede, Mumbai (D/N)

    I think it is hard to go above 86% when you consider that the highest ever target set was chased.

    Big Punk fan and the 2011 initial run got me through some tough times (see profile pic of bald me during chemo) but you cannot attack your boss - simple as.
