South Africa beat India in 3rd ODI by 18 runs

[90MPH]

SA need 280 at least.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Amla has been woeful for a while now. I really thinks he needs to be dropped in favour of Russouw (or someone) for the remaining ODIs.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Faf is lucky man,damn.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Did actually Gavaskar say benefit of doubt should go for bowler re Faf out?

 

[Indian_Supporter]

He is to ODIs what Jonathan Trott was for tests. Only stats with Zero substance.

Amla is a league behind players like ABDV, Kohli, Smith etc.

 

[#GreenRoars]

, first i thought it is going to be out

 

[Mamoon]

Amla bhai chickens out and still fails lol. He still thinks it is the World Cup or something, bilateral beast mode not on yet but shouldn't be long.

 

[#GreenRoars]

He was never in the league of ABD, Kohli, Smith , Root e.t.c

 

[Mamoon]

Good to see QdK back in form, he is the star player for the Proteas at the top of the order.

[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] [MENTION=107807]Pete Rose[/MENTION]
hv a look at his action n tell me if i was conspiring

bhajan chucks, no doubt. However, it is not an BCCI conspiracy that he hasn't been reported - I don't subscribe to that line of thinking, too simple for me.

His past history does not matter; if the umpires think he is, they will report him. period.

 

[#GreenRoars]

by Faf.

 

[Indian_Supporter]

Predict how much India will chase?

Let me see, 160/2 now with 20 overs and AB to come? 340 is my guess.

Yours?

Yours?

AB is due a few failures, hopefully not here.

Yours?

320 or less. India can chase this total too.

 

[Noman]

Amla need a break and he is getting fatter. going the Mohammad Yousuf way.

 

[Noman]

I have a feeling that India will have easier playing because playing fast bowling is easier here.. Sa I think need 300 plus. interesting odi match

 

[Nikhil_cric]

De Kock loves scoring against us

 

[Ozymandiasza]

de Kock looks exhausted.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

SA knows they can clobber us when the pacers come on.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Very slow by SA. Might end up scoring only 325. India will get it with ease.

 

[run-out]

how is the pitch playing ?

 

[Ozymandiasza]

faf

If he chucks the umpire will call it

 

[Ozymandiasza]

"ab! Ab! Ab!"

 

[Indian_Supporter]

ABDV...what an amazing reception he got from crowd...wow

 

[Pete Rose]

Good for devilliers to sustain his reputation: good score already, license to attack, the match is not a decider. Usually brings out the best in him.

 

[Indian_Supporter]

ABDV is modern day Viv Richards...scared when is batting against your team but cant stop but admiring the skills of this man

 

[Lords]

India got themselves in trouble again.

SA in very strong position

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Now de Kock can go rest, thank goodness. Well batted.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Ugh, another collapse.

 

[Indian_Supporter]

Oh no...AB gone

 

[Gone]

India got themselves in trouble again.

SA in very strong position

Two balls later the game is on =D This series is getting better and better

 

[Bhaijaan]

ABD has no clue once wickets fall at the other end. Such a false prophet.

 

[Acricketfan]

ABD has no clue once wickets fall at the other end. Such a false prophet.

Will you shut up for someime ?

 

[desi_launda]

6 down

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Oh no...AB gone

Why Oh no?

Oh yaaaaaaaaaaay

 

[Asadullah]

Beherdien can become brilliant test cricketer

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

ABDV is modern day Viv Richards...scared when is batting against your team but cant stop but admiring the skills of this man

Indeed.

 

[Pantani]

South Africa will be lucky to get 260. You can't wait until the final ten overs and score at 15s now that there are five fielders allowed outside the circle. You have to keep a higher rate throughout the innings and aim to score 9-10 an over from over 40 onwards.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What has south africa done... I thought theyd get 330 at one stage..

 

[Indian_Supporter]

Mohit Sharma >>>>> Umesh Yadav

In ODIs

 

[Sandeep]

Good to see low scores in ODI matches for a change..

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Good to see low scores in ODI matches for a change..

This pitch is a high scoring game.

SA's inability makes the pitch look good.

 

[Sandeep]

This pitch is a high scoring game.

SA's inability makes the pitch look good.

Did I say the pitch is not flat? I said the low scores in ODIs look good. Read and then comment.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Steyn scored more than AB and Amla combined. Sickening.

 

[Sandeep]

Amla at 1 down is a recipe for disaster. Limited player in ODIs.. best suited for opening.

 

[desi_launda]

India need 271 to win

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Did I say the pitch is not flat? I said the low scores in ODIs look good. Read and then comment.

Why such curtness?

Was just a normal comment.

Ok carry on.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

After copying music, movies, stories we have also started copying architectures. What's this chinese lords stadium at rajkot lol?

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Steyn scored more than AB and Amla combined. Sickening.

Calm down it happens in cricket.

 

[gani999]

bhajan chucks, no doubt. However, it is not an BCCI conspiracy that he hasn't been reported - I don't subscribe to that line of thinking, too simple for me.

and end their careers in the process.

I think the Barmy Army's song that was made for :Murali: can now be modified .

Throw, throw, throw the ball
gently down the seam.
Bhajji, bhajji, bhajji, bhajji
chucks it like a dream

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Watched Bhajji quite a bit today.

Some of the deliveries are fine but some of them are chucks.

There is a very good amount of extension happening.

Atleast must be tested.

 

[Justcrazy]

Rohit

 

[Justcrazy]

Wickets will be key.

 

[Justcrazy]

India needs a solid start here.

 

[Justcrazy]

11/0
3 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Sharma is looking dangerous.

 

[Justcrazy]

15/0

4 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Steady start by India so far.

 

[Yatoo]

Dale steyn a rubbish bowler in Odis and now rubbish fielder too

 

[Justcrazy]

Sharma on song here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dale steyn a rubbish bowler in Odis and now rubbish fielder too

Depends on conditions.

 

[Justcrazy]

31/0
7 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

Crucial phase , Duminy on now.

 

[Justcrazy]

Morkel drops a sitter

 

[desi_launda]

2 catches dropped lol

 

[Justcrazy]

35/0

8 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

2 catches dropped lol

Drop catches will cost them the game as well as series.

 

[Executioner]

Bangladesh these days field better than South Africa and England,

 

[Dios]

Big innings for Kohli here.

 

[Abhilash93]

Dhawan has been in terrible form ever since the WC ended. Needs to be rested for the next two matches.

 

[Dios]

Sharma always scores big after being dropped.

 

[Dios]

Is Gurkeerat Mann in the ODI squad for India? Hope he gets a game. Has been in deadly form for India A.

 

[Dios]

When will SA unleash Tahir?

 

[Markhor]

Poor innings from Dhawan, never looked comfortable at the crease.

 

[Dios]

Bangladesh these days field better than South Africa and England,

Bangladesh is one of the best fielding sides in the world right now. Shabbir, Nasir, Soumya, Liton are world-class fielders.

 

[Syed2015]

Big innings for Kohli here.

Have the same feeling. He will probably lead the chase most of its time, but depart close to winning it by his own. Nevertheless, India will chase this one with ease.

 

[Dios]

Rohit about to make SA pay big time.

 

[Indian_Supporter]

"Come to India Steyn...come to India...I will see" - Rohit apparently said so....

And boy is he delivering a punch or what? #audacity

 

[Indian_Supporter]

Shot...
