Damn Kohli.

 

[Heboric]

flippin finally

 

[Gnske]

Lmao he's deliberately avoided that all innings but he just can't help but bend that knee into a cover drive to slip

 

[Calm_profit]

200 is enough this time, not everytime saffers are going to chase.

 

[OverratedSanity]

This will end quick. Smash 40 somehow please.

 

[cnerd123]

nooooooooooooo


one mistake from Virat, brilliant catch from Markam. On another day that flies over the slips for runs, or finds the middle and goes for 4. Instead he's out for 29.

Good 29. Worth a lot. Real chance for SA to blow us away now. Plz Ashwin get stuck in here.

I heard from somewhere else that Afridi was interested in test cricket but selectors and Inzi who was captain at the time kept ignoring him.

Could have advised him to focus on his bowling and get in the team based on that alone. Anything with the bat would be counted as a bonus.

 

[Member Berry]

oh Kohli, all that self-denial only to get out like that. still a good innings though, Pujara would be proud.

 

[slippy888]

send in thakur at number 7

 

[honestbharani]

That was unnecessary after such a good shift there by Virat. But it did take a very good catch, I guess. He is really not the same player but if he is reinventing himself into a Dravid for us, that can be good too.

 

[cnerd123]

50 of the 55 wickets from India in this series have fallen to catches, including all 15 in this game.

FFS. Just reflects how poorly we've batted on occasion, and also how well SA have caught.

 

[Member Berry]

send in thakur at number 7

thakur might be a good shout for the test match afridi

We already have Pujara for it

 

[silentstriker]

Kohli and his 12th stump line man.

 

[Bahseph]

Good innings from Kohli but I don't think this is a very sustainable approach for him long term.

 

[anil1405]

Proteas need a deep point to cut off some lovely drives and cuts that Ashwin and Thakur play through that region.

 

[Member Berry]

Good innings from Kohli but I don't think this is a very sustainable approach for him long term.

I think he knows it too. This was more a - do anything to win this match - type innings.

 

[Calm_profit]

Please bring Maharaj.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Good innings from Kohli but I don't think this is a very sustainable approach for him long term.

Yeah, very admirable pair of knocks but he's not the kind of batsman for whom this might signal a return to form. He's still well in his slump.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Surprised we didnt get an obstructing field appeal tbh
