*Official* India in South Africa

[Turbinator]

I know you're all stressed. All I can say is, I still have hope. As frustrating as the last session has been, I still believe very much so that India will win this.

But for the time being, let's ease some of that stress and jam to this tune.

Poor Sachin, We're done. People will only remember VVS knock. Sachins 2 100s for losing cause, only brings heartache.

 

[Cevno]

Got that Sinking feeling right now.

Dhoni has played many Crucial knocks,too in tough conditions.

Match saving knock in England comes to mind ,straightaway.

DWTA massively but I've had this debate a thousand times so I don't really want to have it again now.

And yeah, people always bring that one up. And I agree, even though it was one of the most hilarious match-saving innings you'll ever see. They draw a blank after that though.

You can't call your side the best in the world and then genuinely believe they have no chance at chasing down 270 or batting out a day to draw a match. It's one or the other.

Not really. I'm doing it right now. In case you forgot all the million posts people made against aussie, #1 isn't "dominant all-time great team"

It's a 5th day wicket with Steyn bowling as good as he has ever done in his life. Cricket isn't as simple as you're making it out.

Exactly.

Quite, poor Tendy, always the bridesmaid, never the bride. It's crazy how often he slips under the radar with an unnoticed gem of brilliance.

I'm not sure whether you're joking or not..

Yeah it is. If you don't think India can chase it down then they shouldn't be crowned the best side in the world. I personally think they can and will. This has nothing to do with rankings or dominance but your confidence in your own team.

Haha, quite. So under-rated is Tendulkar; never gets enough credit, particularly in his own country.

 

[Blaze 18]

If memory serves me right, Australia chased down three hundred at this very ground back sometime back. No reason why India can't do the same.

On a more positive note, how awesome is Onions on Sky Sports. Analysing the game so well.

 

[GotSpin]

I reckon there needs to be a thread created regarding Tendulkar. For too long has he gone unnoticed!!!!!

How many people in this thread are getting Sky Sports? Like three?

What you mean they draw a blank?

He has played some very good innings since then.

Even building pressure on the oppositions by some quick knocks.

I know this may be a big call, but I think he's almost as good a batsman as Kallis.
