Based on what I am seeing, could this be something new. No ab, faf, amla and dekock out of form, duminy and miller poor against spin. Only rabada is the only threat with the ball

I do not see from where this team can win
 
If India really manages to win the series it will be a great achievement. Beating the no 1 side in their own den is always special.
 
No ABCDEF if going to save SA very poor declining team, markram duminy decok r indias 12th 13th 14th players sorry millers is there 15th

Saving from a Whitewash isnt too hard. You just have to win 1 out of 6 matches. The thread is about a 6-0 whitwash which will require a lot of things right for India to happen.
 
PP gets sader sader every time India look like winning, some people really need to do something productive with their lives than wasting time on stupid jinx attempts.

It's not jinx thread, its based on facts considering the state of SA ODI team.
 
Why don’t you try

Why would I do that. I ain't interested in jinxing.

U do realise that saffers r the current no 1 odi team, right? They r also playing in their own backyard, not in India. No team can go to the top spot in ranking by banking on only one or two players.

If India indeed manages to be this great south african team which has 3 of the top most bowlers in world cricket right now and win the Series, it will be a great achievement for them regardless the margin of the victory. India will just cement their place as the best test team in the world.

Its not jinx. Maybe you should have a look at the match and the state of the SA team and then pass judgements.

As I said before the series, with Amla out of form and AB gone, the saffer line up is pretty weak. Add to that QDK out of form and now a missing Faf, it gets even worse. India should win this match and SA will need to beef up their middle order somehow before the next match. Otherwise yes, it looks to be a 6-0 type of series...although I didnt know there were going to be 6 ODIs, how often has that happened?
 
India have a great chance to become the first ever asian team to win a series of more 5 or more than 5 ODI's. Pakistan won the odi series of 3 matches last time here.
 
Fact is that this SA team is really weak.
Credit to India for exposing them but for SA i hope they have some better players coming through.

Amla and ABD wont play forever.

A strong bowling line up can only get you so far.

They're really going to need some batsmen to put runs on the board.

As is the WC for next year looks pretty straight forward with one of India (45%), Aus (35%), Eng (10%) and Pakistan (10%) certain to win.

India (35%) Pak (25%) Aus (30%) Eng(10%)

South Africa will choke before the final. NZ will be the dark horse as always.

SA not good enough.

Dark horse means nothing, we aren't winning anything with our darpoks.

I think India are a good bet of winning the next 2 WCs provided Aus don't go on a great run next year.

It will be very difficult for SA to make a comeback and win this series if India win today. SA will have to win remaining 4 matches to win this series.
 
Fluke because SA are missing key players & Amla/DeKock are out of form.

Mamoon

:ashwin
 
It will be the biggest “fluke” I will ever see if India win 6-0 against SA in this series.
 
Last time de kick made 3 centuries against India. India’s wrist spinners don’t spare any team. Distinct possibility unless India experiments too much
 
India depends on kohli that’s it Don’t sound like all Indian batsmen are in form lol Rahane typically aODI misfit.

Haha I agree with that percentage. 10% for Pakistan because they are unpredictable and 10% for England only because they are playing at home and currently having their best ever team. Rest all we know the situation.
 
Give credit to India’s spin twins.These are SA pitches kookaburra balls. They bowl better than their seamers

In ODIs you need batsmen thats wht India dominates.
 
6-0 is unlikely but a 5-1 or 4-2 seems likely unless de Villiers inspires the whole team Rocky style.
 
Let 2 more games be over befire making such ridiculous threads. Sa came back from 2 down to win against Eng recently.

amla dekock being out of form does not count as fluke.

fluke in cricket is where players are dropped, create lots of chances and edges, those are streaky innings.

SA missing faf and AB will definitely help India and the result will obviously have been different had these two played given their quality
 
It is very rare we have 6 one day series these days. I remember West Indies beating India 6-1 in India in 1987.
 
I think India already beat SL 6-0 under Rahul Dravid's captaincy.

On the topic, it will be incredible if India can draw the series. No matter how good the bowling is, Indian batting is at its worst and the day kohli fails, India will struggle to chase 160+

No. It is always 6-1 or 5-1 Never 6-0 or 7-0
 
Can anybody figure why on earth this is a 6-ODI series?

Did somebody make a typo?
 
India first need to win 2 more ODIs to win this series. 6-0 is far away.
 
My question will be.... Why the hell there is 6 match series in the first place?

I would have wanted 1 more test and probably 3 odis....
 
I am glad SA is not having Fauf and AB. It makes a mockery of their schedule. I also wish SA fans just doesn't turn up for one dayers. They should be financially hit. Then only they will stop schecudling ridiculous ODI series
 
It has been very embarassing for RSA in the ODIs so far but I'm absolutely sure that they will bounce back hard in the next games.
Capetown and Johannesburg might be pace friendly wickets and that may suit RSA. Players like Hashim and De Kock need to take more responsiblity. I wouldn't mind Markram opening and Hash moving to No.3 so that he can get to face the spinners. They somehow need to win the next game and get some momentum going.

CSA made deal to scrap 4th Test and get additional ODI. Its all started because of ex CEO of CSA Haroon Logart's strained relation with BCCI. Rightly he was thrown out by CSA after GLT20 fiasco by that guy.

What's with the indian-like pitches, something doesn't look right and it's very obvious
 
Bhai how their narrative of "Ghar ke sher" would survive after this and that too after an epic phainty from new zealand of 5-0?

Funny because South Africa beat us in India during the last ODI series they played here.
 
BCCI paid CSA to prepare such tracks ..If that suits ur narrative :facepalm:

No way am I degrading India's win but it was just a thought that came to my mind as it is not very usual to see those tracks in SA and not just for 1 game, why get offended?

Sorry if I hurt you, such questions will be insult to Team India performance from 3rd Test. No one from Team player or support staff have complained about pitch; we saw lot of pitch related whining from SA camp instead... Faf, Elgar, Ex players, biased supersport commentators :facepalm:

Weak is relative term. they can beat all teams in odi barring england and maybe india/australia

This game is very different from others isn't it, where one of the biggest factors that has effect on the outcome of the match is the pitch, you can see why cricket is so hard to take in for the newcomers. It's quite evident considering how the pitch is talked about more in the press conferences than the actual performance of the players. I was surprised how SA didn't lose the second test as they started complaining about the pitch even before the game was decided, this was also seen in the NZ tour where our staff and captain kept mentioning how they couldn't get used to the conditions and whatnot and this state of denial is why you lose in alien conditions. IMO the third test was something Indians should be very proud of but you could see how the Indian team didn't whine about the poor pitch and this I think is due to Kohli's mentality, he looks like the kind of man who would take any challenge any time and try to overcome it, he's a very good captain albeit not the most clever but his determination alone will move India forward.

Uhmm no they wont. This lot cant play spin simple as that. In terms of bowling apart from Rabadda its very very average.

Like I said apart from amla, ABD and the captain it looks very low on quality.

That is the best thing about King Kohli., Still learning in captaincy but already expert in taking challenges head on. Poor pitch, poor weather in Delhi...No matter what, he will make sure that team fights the elements instead of whining like cry babies :facepalm:

nope.

Rahane is a serial match loser.He is arguably worst Indian player of this decade in LOI.I rate Binny and I Sharma comfortably ahead of Rahane in ODIs/T20s.However,He has improved since his comeback.ATM Rahane deserves the no 4 spot in ODIs.
 
SA have been the king of bilateral series ever since their return to international cricket. If that goes away, than they will start questioning themselves.
 
No

SA have a few batsmen who can score big and fast. They will win at least one match by fluke.
 
4-2 or 5-1 would be realistic outcome.

6-0 seems unlikely.

Actually, I would prefer 4-2 or even 3-3 rather 5-1 and 6-0.

Its only when we lose, that we seem to fix our problems. If we win a lot of matches, then we would be stuck with the likes of Jadhav and Rahane (tbf, he hasnt looked too bad off late). So, need to lose a few so that we can improve.

Also, I dont think India is that superior. India have been slightly lucky in the last 2 games with SA struggling on pitches that were slightly suited for the spinners. I expect to get pitches for the remaining games where our spinners will be neutralised. Thats also good for the team, as our 5th bowler needs to be challenged and our middle order from 5-7 also needs to be challenged.
 
Whatever it is I am actually unable to come out of the trauma of golden chance of winning Test Series which was the most important thing! (Probably we should have played 1 or both of these wrist spinners in Tests even if that meant South Africa learnt to play them by the time ODIs arrived)
 
It is just 2 - 0 as of now.. if it read 5- 0 this thread would make sense
 
I don't know why everyone is saying that this is a jinx thread. The result is very clearly there for all to see. Now with AB, Faf and De Kock out SA should only aim to not lose by huge margins.
 
I think SA will will win a game or 2 but India will win the series.
 
Seems like De Kock has been ruled out of the ODIs and T20s against India with a wrist injury. SA batsmen need to be more careful playing Indian pacers like Bumrah.
 
Likely to be 5-1 to India, unless ABD produces sublime batting class.
Clearly without Faf, ABD & QDK, SA are not very good ODI side. Rabada/Amla has been hit & miss.
 
It was a great opportunity to clean up SA 6-0 .... but for stupid Chahal/Iyer . 5-1 is still a very very good Pasting with every match we won we did so by comprehensively beating SA senseless.

All said very happy with the outcome especially as it has completely knocked out the usual suspects on here in PP.
 
Poor slip ups and maybe rain prevented a complete routing. Still a good achievement.

You think? Take a gander at the post above you :misbah
