Lol no you always bat first at Newlands. It's not a green top.It's clearly a 'Bowl 1st' kind of day.
Bat first is a poor/risky decision by Kohli
Rahane almost goes in his 1st over again. What a joke of a player!
Mark my words Pujara will throw his wicket after scoring 50.
Exquisite timing here...Also Kohli's lack of back foot stroke play is clearly visible. He is tied down.. Knows he can't cover drive everything & perish in the process. Sachin never had such issues nor Dravid. Both of em had extensive back foot game & SRT was too good in judging the length.
Top edge tbf. He's just not able to nail his pulls which he used to be good at.Exquisite timing here...
helps when he tries pulling balls that are chest high instead of ones going over his headTop edge tbf. He's just not able to nail his pulls which he used to be good at.
Welcome back with your reverse jinx. You were missed in the first 3 hours of play.It's clearly a 'Bowl 1st' kind of day.

That was more off a top edge.. I am not talking about his ability to hook or pull. He has let go several balls that were ripe for a square cut or a backfoot punch. He is already committed on the front foot with his long strides.Exquisite timing here...
