Typical sub-continent team performance IMO.
India much like Pakistan will invariably have a 'mare performance in a series. So unpredictable it can be very frustrating, but exciting following these teams."Its not about the long ball or the short ball, its about the right ball." Bob PaisleyComment

To nick a line from other posters on here...in India Test Cricket isn't really watched or shown much interest in :-)Originally posted by ShaggyAlonso View Post

Seriously though, I find it funny that an England fan is mocking the Indian cricket team. Didn't you only just beat a second-rate NZ team?!!!! :-)Comment

Haven't watched any of this game. Seen nothing of it.
How the **** can India be skittled for 70 odd and SA then go and make hay with a huge total? What's the track like?!Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’Comment

India came up with a performance they traditionally do now and then..eg Bangladesh in the World Cup. ****ing disgraceful batting on the first day, getting out for 76
Track had something in it for the bowlers first up which makes you wonder why Kumble would risk batting first. Now it's a batters track but India should still have posted more than 76
SA have done well in both tests. Very impressiveComment

India batted poorly to be dismissed in 20 overs. Only Dravid got an unplayable delivery, the rest showed no commitment and got themselves outOriginally posted by ShaggyAlonso View Post
The pitch has something in it for the bowlers with the new ball, but after 20-25 overs it is as good as the one from the first Test
The Indian batting line up is very experienced and I'd be surprised to see Jaffer, Sehwag, Laxman, Dravid, Ganguly and Dhoni fail again. SA dont have a spinner capable of bowling India out on a pitch that will favour the spinners more in the last 2 days.
IMO a draw is still a good bet for this test, but it will need an Indian batting lineup showing a lot more commitment than they have done so far. Even in the first test it was only Sehwag, Dravid and Jaffer that played the type of innings required by all the Top order batsmen. Sehwag's innings was brilliant, but it also papered over many cracks that was exposed in the first innings of the Second testLast edited by SouthAfricaRed; 05-04-08, 04:53 AM."For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son"Comment

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.Comment
