Don't get me wrong I don't want India to win , but India have been threatening to break their duck here the past couple of series , it hasn't been utter domination like when we go to India and get klapped, and Sri Lanka have proved you can come to SA and win , add to that the lack of test matches for preparation..its not ideal hey..
SA has never really dominated at home, and that is partly because of the variation and nature of the pitches. It depends on where the match is played against which opposition. The SL win was, lets be honest, a one off all time great innings... in a two match series. None of this surprises in SA conditions, it is very difficult to dominate because one great spell or one great knock can change a match; when largely games of 250-350+ first inning scores are the norm. Only SA batsmen to have dominated SA conditions consistently (since readmission) is Kallis.
Don't jinx man . Finger crossed ?

He left the field straight after the last spell he bowled. That isn't necessarily a sign of anything, but given that was the previous session and you'd have thought Bavuma would have turned to him to try to break the final partnership, it is a concern.
Did you compare a number 11 and Herath's batting with Vettori's? Vettori averaged 40+ for about 8 or 9 years.
