***Official*** India in South Africa 2017/18

Thank god we have Pandya so he could bowl those 2 overs for 3 runs. Long live the 5 fast bowler strategy.

We shall see after Phehlukwayo bats as well...

 

[GRAB]

They rested Kumar in the second match so they could bowl him into the ground in the third...

Man **** Vernon Philander. And Kagiso Rabada. You don't get to be so good with the bat while wrecking us with the ball too.

Ouch that looked like it would sting.

SA should get the first innings lead from here. Will take a miracle in India's second innings to salvage this Test.

Bar Amla, all the top batsmen sucking balls? Hadn't expected this.

Was expecting Amla to flop in this match and then contemplate retirement.

And Rabada the second highest scorer?

 

[StephenZA]

A friend of mine asked why Amla was still being picked for the test team..... he is still a friend! I just don't talk cricket with him any more.


Philander has been excellent here.

 

[TT Boy]

Shami one of these strange fast bowlers that prefers a dustbowl to bowl on. Turning into a liability here.

 

[GRAB]

Philander starting to compete with Hadlee, Johnson, and Vaas in the greatest fast bowler who wasn't quite an all-rounder but batted well enough at times to be exasperating...

 

[StephenZA]

Timed it to well! .... well done great Hash.

 

[TT Boy]

India needed that.

 

[StephenZA]

Lets troll another 50+ runs boys.... keep it going.

 

[GRAB]

This match may not have the best quality, but it's tight as a NFLer's jockstrap!

 

[OverratedSanity]

Why would Amla contemplate retirement? I swear his drop in form, although real is also massively overblown sometimes. He's not dominating like back in 2013 but he's still arguably been their best batsman over the last year or so. He's still really good.

 

[OverratedSanity]

**** off Philander

 

[Daemon]

Yessss, **** off Philander

 

[GRAB]

Haydos?

 

[Daemon]

65 runs from rabz and uncle phil. Hurts so, so much.

 

[kingkallis]

Rabada, Philander and struggling Amla helps South Africa post something on the scoreboard. Otherwise SA might have struggled to cross 125.

 

[Daemon]

****ing hell that was spanked.

Looks like a good match for the tailenders. I say we open with Ishant and Parthiv Patel.

 

[OverratedSanity]

**** off Bumrah
