You do realize Saf wouldn't have even made 250 in the first innings if the obvious decisions were given. Take out Dhonis inning, and India still would have scored around 220-230.
Would have, could have, should have. Happens. Part of the game. Can't get too tied up over it.

But does it happen this much! Anyways, whatever, what goes around comes around.

Right but I'd like this test to be rained out just so the umpires don't have the final say with their rubbish decisions. Let the players settle it at Cape Town.

I would have been very confident about a draw had Dravid still be there. If no rain occurs, India will likely only have to bat out 2 sessions tomorrow, maybe a bit more due to an earlier start, but the 3rd session will definitely almost disappear like today. Batting out 2 sessions with Dravid at the crease wouldn't have been impossible on this pitch.

How did the umpire make a mistake when Pietersen's stumps were rattled? :p
LOL you know I was going to correct you and tell you who I meant. Glad you put the smiley there tbh :D

If India do happen to lose, it'll be one heartbreaking defeat.
The tour is already more successfull that I thought it would be. I'd love a 1-0 scoreline heading into test #3, but I'd be fine with 1-1 too.

High chances of rain tomorrow, let's hope that happens. India are usually the ones who get screwed by rain.

Crap, are they resuming play?!

TBH I'll cry if we end up losing this 2-1.

Indian players not dying on the plane crash over is more successful then you thought the tour would be.

True, though a selective death of certain players might add to the tour's success.

At least he has tried to hang around this test and get some runs. Sehwag is inexcusable.
Jaffer Gambhir in next match. If sehwag plays I will seriously go rioting on the streets. He maybe avg over 50, but he's out of form like crazy
