keep worship FTB's when your own team is struggling against No.7 NZ.Even Bangladeshis thrashed them recently. How many matches your team is going to win in this series mate..? or rather I ask how many matches are going to lose... Your Non-FTB's betters must be knowing it.. forget about india.. worry abt pak... good luck

now the tough question...what is left to worry about and pray for :D
 
they need to get as close as possible to the saffers total...the pitch is crumbling a bit and taking turn
 
YES- Another FTB bites the dust. Good that he missed a undeserving 100.

why not ? you think SA batsmen played flawless cricket . Amla had a edge for every boundary he scored & yet everyone was saying how good he played . its a bowler friendly pitch & any batsmen whos survived done well .

Why He deserve that Century First Tell me that Buddy??? I have not said anything in favor of SA Batsman.. Did I?? Why you are talking about them then?? Gambhir Got at least four life in this way of making 93.. This innings will help him to do well in ODIs. But it wasn't a proper test innings to deserve a Century. Huh.. Hope you got it..

Because Gambhir is an Indian, that automatically makes him an FTB, all his scores are lucky streaks, anytime he scores a century he was being selfish and not playing for the country and so and so forth

Cos there is no such thing as undeserving runs . the bowlers have a huge advantage on such pitches & batsmen need every bit of luck here , like how it is for bowlers on flat pitches ...every batsmen whos scored runs here has been lucky , Kallis , Amla , GG or Tendulkar .
 
Lol@ some of the 'ftb' comments...alot of Pak fans seem upset. Just enjoy the cricket...if you don't want to see Indians doing well, then don't watch.

Stop Making Cheap Comments Buddy.. Yeah I don't Like Gambhir, thats Very true.. But not because he is an Indian... I just don't think he is a class player. But I judged him on the basis of the quality of the innings he played here.. Don't Bring India Pakistan Politics in Cricket all the time..
 
India ahead in this match and the series also which no one really expected would happen.
 
Gambhir's innings was actually an impressive display. He left anything that was out there to tempt him, and played the extra bounce on the off-stump easily, in the process pretty much nullifying the advantage that the bowlers hold on this pitch. Having laid down this defensive platform, he was quick to punish the half-volley and anything leg-side. Quality innings from a quality player which deserved a hundred, regardless of some of the uninformed claims to the contrary above. A shame most of the people reviewing the innings blatantly didn't watch it, and if they did they should brush up on their knowledge of the game. It's frustrating to see a proper test innings on a bouncy wicket being written off as a supposed 'FTB' getting lucky. Sigh.

yeh it is bcoming flat , but its not a 600 pitch , is it ? Theres still bounce, some variable & more spin ..but the first day had lot of swing on offer , its certainly easier to bat now than on the first day
 
If he India manage 50+ lead today, and add somewhere around 50 or 100 more tommrow, then expect SA to Choke!

Gambhir is Class in your Sense And Umar Amin also a Class player in your sense as Umar Amin's name came in this thread trough your Post.. Your Sense of Judging Cricket is Awesome...

I never Said Gambhir is a Bad Player.. But He plays too many Premeditated Shots.. And thats not a Sign of Class Player.. Hope you Got it... If you fail to get it right, then Keep yourself away from judging my posts Please.

I quoted your post as a representation of one of the many similar comments on Indian batsmen in the forum topic. Your criticism of Gambhir might have been heartfelt but a lot of other criticism is done simply because of the nationality which is unfortunate since PP has been quite unbiased compared to other sporting forums.

Thats the thing I was thinking all the time when these Commentators were making us fool by saying the Pitch is Becoming Flat Flat.. Huh... Never heard a Flat Pitch produces this kinda Bounce.

It can be easier to Bat for Someone like Kallis or Amla because, they have grown up playing on these types of pitches..

But This pitch can't be a flat track batting pitch for Indians as they are not used to bat on this kinda tracks.

Gambhir Played a Big innings thats good for him.. But the quality of this Innings was not very high as he was very fortunate through out the innings.

Your knowledge of cricket is awesome. All you are doing is posting negative comments. If you are upset about India doing well, then don't watch.

Then Quote them Buddy.. Why me??? I don't Abuse any Player from any Country.. And I don't Hate India By any mean.. If India Wins I always Cheer with Some of other Indians like Sir John, Mastermind_Quad.. If Was rude to Indian Cricket just because its India, I would never have buddies like Sir John & M_Q.. Anyways,, you cleared your side that good enough to close this discussion..

:19:
 
If Teenda scores a 100 then the probability of a SA win goes up.
