[kingkhan1996]

That wernt out????

 

[Red Devil]

Rahane

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Rahane what the hell was that? Leave that alone that was wide.

 

[Ahson8]

LOL India

 

[mosh101]

who's next on your list?

Array bhai, rahane ney dhoka dey diya

 

[Iffitheking]

ahhh that's unlucky

 

[Bilal7]

Rahane goes as well. This is a slaughter, I pity the poor Indian superstars. Expecting some effigies to be burnt.

 

[Colt]

Another one bites the dust... BCCI should just cancel all away tours and play at home.

 

[London_Lahori]

This is embarrassing. It really is.

At least Pakistan batting is known as being fragile, India are supposedly the best batting line up in the world.

 

[mosh101]

Dhoni to do a Misbah now

 

[DeadlyVenom]

SA-PAK this year 9-5 in ODI's and 4-1 in tests. Apparently even for Pakistan.

Thats not how cricket is played my friend.

In tests its 1-0 South Africa

In ODIs its 1-1.

 

[saiyan0312]

oh come on. I hope rahane is not dropped. tough conditions and tough situation.

 

[London_Lahori]

Array bhai, rahane ney dhoka dey diya

)

I'll be impressed if you can jinx dhoni

 

[Batman]

LOL Rahane goes this time

 

[mosh101]

CSK bwoys at the crease

 

[Dark Magician]

***? Rahane did not edge it but he is running away.

 

[zains_rulez]

Hahahahhahaha India ) they only can play at home !!

 

[as-95]

Kohli is saving his best for the Test.

Funny how quickly you have changed tune from "Steyn vs his baws" and ":Kohli will chase this easily" to a tame "he is saving his best for the Tests".Everybody knows Kohli is a better LOI player than Test Player.

 

[Bilal7]

SA-PAK this year 9-5 in ODI's and 4-1 in tests. Apparently even for Pakistan.

What is the ODI record in South Africa?

 

[Batman]

World class batting by India )

Keep it up this way

 

[Pantani]

This is glorious.

 

[Executioner]

Indian batsman are def. HTBs or spin track bullies

 

[London_Lahori]

Dhoni is such a fighter he will score at least a 50 here.

 

[soso_killer]

you know there is a positive.India will be battle hardened during tests.

they have to occupy the crease to be battle hardened

 

[Bilsher007]

Now morkel strikes and rahane departs! Batsman reacts in a manner that he did'nt hit it.

India reeling at 34/4 ...... Ohhh i am loving this !!!

Yuvraj and dhoni special ??? Ha ha ha bring it on

 

[Saffer_XIII]

He missed it by miles. Umpiring hasn't been adequate today.

 

[menace2society]

India cant bat or bowl.

I want SA to crush their souls.

Get them out for under 100 please.

 

[akheR]

Now morkel strikes and rahane departs! Batsman reacts in a manner that he did'nt hit it.

India reeling at 34/4 ...... Ohhh i am loving this !!!

Yuvraj and dhoni special ??? Ha ha ha bring it on

Yuvi has been replaced by Rahane.

 

[razabbas]

Now morkel strikes and rahane departs! Batsman reacts in a manner that he did'nt hit it.

India reeling at 34/4 ...... Ohhh i am loving this !!!

Yuvraj and dhoni special ??? Ha ha ha bring it on

Yuvi not playing he was replaced by rahane

 

[saiyan0312]

Dhoni to do a Misbah now

You mean bring india close to win and then throw it away.

 

[London_Lahori]

India happy this is not a long tour, averages won't take too much of a hammering

 

[mosh101]

)

I'll be impressed if you can jinx dhoni

I'll give it my best shot but just get this feeling that raina will find a way back to the dressing room before my jinx comes into effect !

 

[ekpakistani]

Dhoni is such a fighter he will score at least a 50 here.

hahahahahahahahaha

 

[Dark Magician]

Philander in on the feast now.

 

[Red Devil]

Philander in the attack

 

[Batman]

Philander in now, Kaliya tera kya hoga )

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Thats not how cricket is played my friend.

In tests its 1-0 South Africa

In ODIs its 1-1.

That is exactly how cricket is played. You got whitewashed in SA in tests(your worst tour ever) and drew a Test series in UAE - your impregnable fortress. Not that we are going to do any better but Sa are miles ahead of the competition except in T20s

 

[London_Lahori]

Philander will get a bit of a movement here, prob enough to take the edge

 

[saiyan0312]

philander vs dhoni. Cmon dhoni.

 

[Bilsher007]

Rahane goes as well. This is a slaughter, I pity the poor Indian superstars. Expecting some effigies to be burnt.

Yesss Effigies will burn tonight in india after this rape by south african bowlers of indian batsmen !

And this is no green wicket as early reports seem to suggest, it is exactly slow wicket but like i said earlier the quality of south african bowling will take over the wicket factor plus the psychological advange gained from match one.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

What is the ODI record in South Africa?

so the 4-1 victory that SA had over PAK in UAE counts for nothing?

 

[London_Lahori]

Dhoni tuk tukking lol

 

[Sam18696]

India. What's wrong with you all.of a sudden???

 

[soso_killer]

Maiden Vern. Top bowler this guy

 

[ekpakistani]

bring steyn on to finish it of ... haha

 

[mastermind_quad]

Waat lag gayi ....

 

[Bilal7]

Dhoni to tuk tuk here.

 

[akheR]

so the 4-1 victory that SA had over PAK in UAE counts for nothing?

lol.
Isn't there a little difference between SA and UAE though ? Just a little.

 

[London_Lahori]

Will this psychologically hamper India going in to the tests?

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Philander in now, Kaliya tera kya hoga )

hahahahaha

 

[sully3]

so the 4-1 victory that SA had over PAK in UAE counts for nothing?

3 of those matches in UAE were very very close and could have gone to either side, unlike the phanity your boys are receiving right now

Plus we beat SA in SA a few days after.


I'm absolutely loving this massacre taking place in Durban right now

 

[oyei]

so the 4-1 victory that SA had over PAK in UAE counts for nothing?

buddy you are trying to hard,

 

[Batman]

Another wicket on the cards in within 5 overs.

 

[saiyan0312]

Only seven times have India won an ODI after being four down for less than 40 runs - last time was v WI in 2006

You got dhoni over there. can history be made?. Remember that century against us in the first ODI.

 

[IAJ]

Looking at how the Indian batsmen are playing here, I think many of us have been to harsh on critisizing the Young pakistanis playing in SA.

 

[Iffitheking]

I guess Sir Imran Tahir would have taken few wickets here

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Funny how quickly you have changed tune from "Steyn vs his baws" and ":Kohli will chase this easily" to a tame "he is saving his best for the Tests".Everybody knows Kohli is a better LOI player than Test Player.

There is still one match left, he will score a triple ton.

 

[Bilal7]

so the 4-1 victory that SA had over PAK in UAE counts for nothing?

This match isn't being played in the UAE. Pakistan defeated South Africa in this same country 2 weeks ago, whereas India are getting destroyed.

 

[oyei]

Harron Lorgart must have a huge smile on his face.

 

[Dark Magician]

Maiden Vern. Top bowler this guy

Bowling Machine.

 

[mosh101]

Hope dhoni has his helicopter ready

 

[Executioner]

The match was over when Kohli got out.

Kohli is the difference between a world class batting lineup and a mediocre one

 

[ekpakistani]

comment on cricinfo

Rob: "I think SA supporters need to give credit to BCCI for deciding to throw their weight like a school bully and shorten this tournament. After 3-0 you tend to lose interest."

 

[Bilal7]

All Saffer fans will agree that Pakistan were a much more difficult opponent than this Indian team.

 

[Red Devil]

This.

I was thinking the same

 

[Nikhil_cric]

lol.
Isn't there a little difference between SA and UAE though ? Just a little.

Vastly different. those are away conditions for SA and they won 4-1. Credit to you guys for winning a series in SA but the truth is SA have dominated Pakistan for most of the year mainly in tests and to an extent in ODI's as well.

 

[OZGOD]

Just woke up. How are the mighty Indian batsmen doing? Have Dhawan and Nohit both scored breezy front foot hundreds yet?

 

[ekpakistani]

dhoni trying to get out .. won't last more than 3 overs more

 

[mosh101]

Top bowling from morkel

 

[London_Lahori]

we aint worried until 5 down

Almost there badhmash )

India not playing like gangsters are they mate.

[Eagle_Eye]

Necklace gets rahane out lol

 

[mosh101]

Philander to get Dhoni

 

[London_Lahori]

Hope dhoni has his helicopter ready

The jinx machine is in effect

 

[RamLakhan]

Between all the complaints and bashing against Indian Team (and Trundlers), India have done fairly well in overseas on bigger tournaments (like World Cup 2003 South Africa, Champions Trophy 2013 England) of course they have failed at some times which is common to most teams.

I think what lacks is preparation and practice. It is extremely difficult to adjust from Indian conditions to these bouncy conditions. They needed some warm up games and thorough net practice (but with current extensive cricket schedule it is impossible). The bigger blame goes to the organizers and BCCI who are behind money. Players should not be targeted and made fun of! Our batsmen definitely like below stump balls in India and fancy scoring high! What's wrong in that? Why should they be termed as FTBs? Batting requires skills wherever you play. The problem is adjustment. There is no room and no time for it.

The Indian team in the past was real poor team which used to play poor both in and outside India. They would get beaten by West Indies, Australia, England and South Africa at home also.

I am sure these Dhawans, Kholis, Rohits have in them to adjust and play at least 75% to their potential even in these conditions. They need those adjustments.

Even Australians & South African batsmen do some practice & preparation before they come to India (which is relatively adjust from Bouncy conditions to Flat conditions). In such case, it is all more important for Indian batsmen to get the same. But nobody (BCCI) bothers it and they know they can make merry playing (and winning) in India, and can still make some revenue through these shorter overseas tours (as Indians do follow these matches even if their team loses)

Vastly different. those are away conditions for SA and they won 4-1. Credit to you guys for winning a series in SA but the truth is SA have dominated Pakistan for most of the year mainly in tests and to an extent in ODI's as well.

It has nothing to do with the UAE ; Asian teams struggle IN South Africa, check India's record there, a W/L ratio of 0.20.
So Pakistan's 2-3 in SA's favour early this year and it's 2-1 series win lately are achievements you might try to hide behind a feeble rhetoric as much as you want but which stand out, considering that India has won 5 ODIs since 1992 whereas Pakistan won 4 in one year.

It has nothing to do with the UAE unless India is playing in Dubai, Abu Dhabi or Sharjah right now.

 

[Friend786]

SA-PAK this year 9-5 in ODI's and 4-1 in tests. Apparently even for Pakistan.

its actually 8-5 in odi's.

 

[mosh101]

Those are some dark clouds
