Even if SAF play real poor and get bundle out for 200/220 then also it will be damn good total

 

[honestbharani]

lol... I kept telling my colleagues here at office that we won't last 20 overs since we lost the 5th wicket.....


RSA have shown themselves to be absolute champs here. Maybe the Indians don't expect such stuff at home. Funny how many times they struggle against pace and a bit of bounce at home... I tend to think they actually cope better when they are abroad. They just seem shocked when coming across such pitches at home. But by all accounts, this pitch is not at all as bad as is being made out from the score.....


I have a bad feeling that RSA will stream roll past this lead and put up a 300 run first dig lead, minimum. We will probably lose in 4 days.

Are there any legal on-line English radio broadcats of the match?

 

[kingkallis]

Thank god I have booked myself for Day 3 and Day 4

 

[Googenheim]

the wicket has a little bit of grass and sehwag cant handle same attack which he blasted to all parts of ground in previous game

Whats your point? Batsmen can't have failures following a good innings? I remember Anwar getting out cheaply on a Mohali wicket a couple of days after he blasted that 194 of his in Chennai. Conclusion on your part?

Holy ****!

Just walked out of international law class and I see see that score! Steyn must have been destructive as anything!

Bowling was good but there were some pretty daft dismissals in the innings.
Like Dhoni, Ganguly and don't know what Laxman was thinking.

From what I saw, Ntini was really the one who did the damage, Steyn just mopped up the left overs.

Ntini bowled the best overall, but did you see Dravid's dismissal? Steyn had the best delivery by far.

I didn't see it, but I wish I had. Sounded like an unreal delivery.

Sometimes you have to sit back and just admire the fantastic bowling. Great job.

 

[silentstriker]

Almost exactly like SA all out for 81 last year, and of course India went on to register their first victory then.

 

[silentstriker]

Don't know how much difference Sachin would have made, but we certainly missed him today!

 

[silentstriker]

Stating the bleeding obvious here, but India need wickets.

 

[silentstriker]

In terms of overs, this is only the second time they've been out for 20 overs or less. The first was was in 1974 when they were all out for 42 at Lords (17 overs).

Hate to rub it in, but didn't they only make 42 in that game?

Haha, you are correct.
