Ofcourse they can. Dont listen to all these naysayers.India may still do this....
Not only does Ashwin have a few shots of VVS, he also has his temperament.
C'mon boys.
Your nightmare ended.
Try not to go back to sleep cuz Ashwin and Kumar might enter your nightmare again![]()
Congrats India. they scored 5 runs more than SA in 2nd innings.![]()
He is showing alot of temperament while going back to the pavilion)
Haan bhai buhat moh chala rahay thay na?
And they were 1 bowler down![]()
Kohli is starting to jump up and down again.
It can only mean one thing: we're going to lose.
I wish Sachin, Dravid and Laxman had this attack.
Congratulations to Proteas , easily won the match.
Bumrah was a mistake.
Vernon Philander ATG??? He is a great bowler in home conditions. Away from home he only average 3 wickets per Test Match. Hardly grounds for ATG status.
Can anyone tell me if India did score the 350 (as predicted by Pujara) to win the test?

Well done India to make a match out of it.
Considering how teams like Lanka and BD performed I would not say this was a poor performance by any stretch of the imagination
Vernon Philander is an All Time Great, no doubt about that.
South Africa including myself were wrong about this pitch. We can't afford to have similar gaffes against Australia.
If we really look at it, SA had the tougher batting conditions. 1st innings the ball was moving all over the place.
This morning the pitch looked greener than dau 1. India had the better batting conditions and have failed twice.
This is probably India's best attack ever for overseas conditions. The batting is probably the worst though, simply not good enough. If SA bowled first they would have won by an innings.

Yea that’s the standard we aim for, it was a garbage performance..
When is the next game? And where?
We can always live in hope.
But if one of Rahane and Rahul aren't picked, I'm not watching.
It certainly was not a garbage performance. India were in the game almost throughout the match. Just when they were at 35-0 today, things started getting one sided.
Is [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] ok? Someone check on him.)

No team can score 350 on this pitch, especially against the SA attack.
I wonder why Kohli & Shastri have so much love for Dhawan & Rohit! I don't think even those guys are that much interested in playing test cricket! Is it a case of friendly environment/chit chats in Dressing Room & Ground (and hence the drop catches), are they serious about it? These two should not even be in the test squad.
13th of this month at centurion.
It is the sense of entitlement of the couch fans, who want a win to be served to them every time otherwise they will whine about the players, the captain and the selection.
This was a good test match and sets up the series nicely. I think the neutrals and true cricket fans would have enjoyed it far more, than the couch indian so called fans.
I think it was a brilliant test match. I really believed India will win today after SA were bowled out for 130. Many here thought i was trying to jinx or something,but i really thought it was India's game to lose. Infact Ashwin proved it that it wasnt an impossible task. Overall a very good test match and hope that the next matches are similarly competitive.
I thought it was in Johannesburg, and here is good omen, India have never lost a Test there. I think they've played four, won 1 and drew 3. IIRC

Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are expected to get smashed in South Africa. India made a lot of noise about an improved team before the series and still got smashed.Well done India to make a match out of it.
