India (153 & 80/3) defeat South Africa (55 & 176) by 7 wickets to draw the series 1-1

[RamLakhan]

If South Africa can't even reach India's First Innings score. Then India should feel comfortable!

 

[Swashbuckler]

In his mind, before taking the field Rohit had decided to give Mukesh a 6 overs spell, nothing can change that, match situation be damned. Siraj will have to wait.

This is what cost us the WTC and WC. Rohit's stubborn thinking.

 

[RamLakhan]

Is Siraj injured?

 

[Swashbuckler]

Tailenders should not have life so easy, bring on Siraj from this end.

 

[Croma]

Mukesh hits 50

 

[Croma]

:

 

[Croma]

Is Rohit really a good captain? Mukesh being taken to cleaners each over and still persisted with.

 

[Human786]

13/7 ........... BUMRAH

 

[Devadwal]

Lead is 13 so far and they still have Markram at the crease .

 

[Croma]

7 DOWN!

 

[Croma]

FIFER for Bumrah!

 

[Devadwal]

Fifer for bumrah .this is how you perform Impactful.

 

[MANU ROY]

5fr for bumrah

 

[Croma]

Markram....Smash!

 

[Swashbuckler]

Markram playing the knock of his life.

 

[Croma]

:4four:

straight down the ground. and single to keep strike

 

[Devadwal]

Markram 62*

 

[Suleiman]

Anything more than 110- game on.

Otherwise India heavy favorites to win.

 

[Croma]

Hopefully Mukesh will continue and be smashed

 

[Devadwal]

Markram playing the knock of his life.

Not enough for team to save

 

[Croma]

Markram stands rock solid 2 more

and

[Devadwal]

Four more .lead is now 25

 

[Croma]

25-7

 

[Human786]

Siraj getting hammered ..........

 

[Devadwal]

Back to back boundary for Markram

 

[Croma]

: more

SIraj smashed!! 2 4 4

Jadeja ... can we call this a misfield?

 

[Devadwal]

Siraj is not bowling anything close to 1st innings.

 

[Croma]

If Rohit has any brain cells, he would give Markram a single and attack Rabada

 

[Croma]

SA lead by 30.

Another 20 runs and they will feel better.

 

[Devadwal]

Today 10 over 64 runs and 4 Wickets

 

[Human786]

If Rohit has any brain cells, he would give Markram a single and attack Rabada

Rohit being a not to bright rookie is not expected to be as smart as everyone else ...

 

[Champ_Pal]

India leaking runs .

Rohit is hiding Prasidh

 

[Champ_Pal]

SA lead by 30.

Another 20 runs and they will feel better.

India always lets tail wag. SA tail is 10 times better than Indian tail. They have it in them to score 100 runs as target.

 

[Croma]

India leaking runs .

Rohit is hiding Prasidh

will replace Bumrah when he gets tired

 

[Croma]

DROPPED!

 

[Croma]

KL Rahul drops Markram

 

[Devadwal]

Rahul dropped a way catches of Markram

 

[MANU ROY]

Part-time keeper catch drop again

 

[Swashbuckler]

Choker KL Rahul drops a sitter, Markram survives.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Rahul dropped Markram. That is pathetic stuffby him. Bumrah will be angry as hell.

 

[MANU ROY]

Easy catch kl rahul for you

 

[Devadwal]

Prasidh Krishna another run machine came to bowl

 

[Croma]

Prasidh on

 

[MANU ROY]

Prasidh Krishna another run machine came to bowl

We have so many run machine

 

[deltexas]

No, it IS that tough. Cricviz rated day 1 as the toughest day 1 batting conditions since ball tracking data became available(2006 onwards) . This is the toughest pitch of the last 2 decades

Tough yes but not unplayable. Not a 55 track. Or a 155 one. Batsmen didn't apply themselves here..

 

[Croma]

: No.1

 

[Champ_Pal]

Unfortunately ball drops right out of kl rahul’s gloves. He is better than that.

 

[Croma]

 

[MANU ROY]

Six stand and watch mr kl rahul

 

[BouncerGuy]

Prasidh getting smashed.

 

[Croma]

Rohit should let Prasidh and Mukesh bowl in tandem and South Africa will cross 200

 

[Champ_Pal]

Prasidh is a bum. He is a club level hack.

 

[Swashbuckler]

How can a keeper drop such a catch, I can't fathom. KL is mentally so weak.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Let him play IPL. That is where he can succeed only

 

[MANU ROY]

Don't give over to prasidh give jadeja over

 

[Devadwal]

Four and now six

 

[MANU ROY]

Let him play IPL. That is where he can succeed only

He suck at ipl to

 

[Suleiman]

Where is brother Siraj

 

[Croma]

Indian bowling is nothing after Bumrah, Siraj and Shami.

 

[Human786]

the infamous Prasidh ..........

 

[deltexas]

Don't just watch the wicket taking deliveries, see what happened around them, in the leadup to those dismissals. This is the kind of pitch where Angelo Mathews or Ganguly's pace bowling will make peak Viv Richards dance like Michael Jackson.

Yeah watching the whole game. Markram showing how to play. Ramada supporting him as well. The fielding and slip catching has been top notch though. They haven't dropped anything so batsmen are not getting a 2nd chance

 

[MANU ROY]

Drop this prasidh forever

 

[Champ_Pal]

Prasidh should fake injury and head back to pavilion for India’s sake.

 

[Croma]

6666666666666666666666666

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Markram looking to make something happen here. Remarkable

 

[Croma]

Next over please bring Mukesh

 

[Croma]

20 runs gifted by Prasidh

 

[Swashbuckler]

Yeah watching the whole game. Markram showing how to play. Ramada supporting him as well. The fielding and slip catching has been top notch though. They haven't dropped anything so batsmen are not getting a 2nd chance

KL Rahul just dropped Markram, sitter.

 

[MANU ROY]

20 runs gifted by Prasidh

His nice guy you know

 

[Kaptan]

Man! This Prasidh guy is soo bad. It's a real shame that even after soo much investment all we get is Prasidh and Mukesh level bowlers.

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

Any words about the pitch now?
Batsmen didn't apply themselves as simple as that

 

[Champ_Pal]

Prasidh and Mukesh are dead weights.

Bumrah forced to bowl too many overs.

 

[160KPH]

Markram playing an insane innings

 

[Croma]

Lead of 52.

 

[Swashbuckler]

Prasidh is the worst Indian pacer I have ever seen, and that is some low standard.

 

[Devadwal]

Man! This Prasidh guy is soo bad. It's a real shame that even after soo much investment all we get is Prasidh and Mukesh level bowlers.

Mukesh is very good Bowler for these conditions .he is already got 4 Wickets in this matches . prasidh is rubbish

 

[Champ_Pal]

Another 25 runs and SA will fancy their chances to win.

 

[Devadwal]

Another 25 runs and SA will fancy their chances to win.

Lol no . anything below 150 india is favourite .this pitch only can better from here.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Prasidh is the worst Indian pacer I have ever seen, and that is some low standard.

I would rather have Dodda Ganesh or Vinay Kumar over him.

On a pitch like this, he is getting smashed.
