I swear to god it's time to make Rahane captain of the test team. Stops him from getting dropped and less rubbish decisions. Much like the Faf appointment will lead him to become a better batsman too.

Hm, even Michael Holding seems to be against opening with Bumrah.

I must admit that I find it weird that the BCCI decided to play Bumrah ahead of Umesh at Newlands of all places.

If India win this match, we're all going to look back on this current Indian team with a bit more romance.

Really loving India's approach to this test. They were great with the ball, and then Pujara & Rohit put in some hard yards at the crease before Pandya capitalised. India will probably end up behind the 8-ball once this first innings is done and dusted, but if Bhuvi & co. can get those Protea wickets tumbling in the 3rd innings, we're in for a treat.

Mate, they batted second and gave up an 80 run first innings lead after having the other side 3/15. I mean, come on.

That cover drive from Markram will make any bowler look so small.

Elgar not playing much cricket for 2 months not helping his cause. Fighting through some demons.

Yeah i suppose if you look at it that way India could have done more. I'm just patting them on the back for doing a fairly good job against Steyn/Rabada/Philander/Morkel. Not easy.

That was a very Joe Root dismissal. Was looking quality.

Not sure why he’s pulled Ashwin. Thought he looked threatening.

Absolutely. Or even Ashwin.

Need a couple of wickets early tomorrow. Thankfully Pandya has ensured that there is still something to look forward to, if only for the first session or so.
