This is the only way we seem to win one-dayers. Go into a mode of attrition and tighten the screws.
 
India missed a trick by not picking Amit Mishra.

Spinners are the way to go on these flat belters.
 
Still a long way to go ..... SA need to find a couple of 10 runs over here soon , so that Required rate keeps below 7
 
Who is going to be the scapegoat for india if Robi somehow score a 100 here and india lose the match with his match winning knock :p his innings going to be remembered for a long time...Somebody gonna post it in the thread: Best ODI Innings Ever?

Sigh, I am.
 
185 needed in 165 balls where miller, Plessis, duminy and Mclaren still to come and Sir Robi & AB still on pitch with a 100+ partnership WOW.
 
If SA were batting first right now and With this start, AB would have killed the spinners here.
He is just cautious right now as he know how important his wicket is.
 
Here comes dhoni part timers as i mentioned it's time for SA to milk them...
 
Raina to dart it in now.

What a prudish move.

Typical.
 
depends on how you define the term "historically"

The recent Aussie time is quite rubbish in general.

do yourself and check South Africa's record in Asia and stop wasting time. SA are better players of spin period. Its a rubbish myth that SA cant play spin
 
Steyn's absense caused SA to give away so many runs otherwise India wouldn't have been able to score more than 300.
 
Guys let's discuss how Sir Robi gonna celebrate his first ever 100 in ODI maybe with Gangnam style or a Bhangra?
 
Dhoni needs to get more fielders in the circle...Theyre doing 6 singles per over with ease..combine that with the odd boundary here and there,and SA will run away with it
 
Sir Robi gone run out by Sir Jadeja class fielding...This wicket will always be remembered because of 2 great Sir involved...

after watching spinners performance. ..... I want to say that we need both ajmal n a rehman in the final XI
 
From this position South Africa should go on to win. As I say that, they lose a wicket.

If India can sneak another, then the choke is on.
 
Duminy, Miller, McLaren, Faf --> SA should still fance their chances
 
RR over 7..... imperative that these two stay out there till the 40th over.
 
If no more wickets till 220 thn match is over for india even if the Reuired RR is 8+...
 
SA need to keep wickets in hand ...... 80 - 90 runs possible in last 10- 12 overs

I dont think SA believe in that philosophy..and i agree with them..

The chasing down 80-90 odd in the last 10 rarely works these days..Its better they keep up with the RR at the risk of losing a couple of more wickets
 
Don't really rate Duminy - only remember him for the series he had against the Aussies.
 
thats ridiculous its still India's game to lose

How...all SA need to do is score at 4-5 off the spinners. Once the fast bowlers come back, its easy pickings.

SA have the platform. India didn't look like taking a wicket until that run out.
