when i said steyn will be the hero today.. someone said "BANGLADESH IS NOT PLAYING HERE"

Now I guess they ar putting Bangladesh in shame...:(

India 73/8 (18.1 ov) :p

Kumble now wishes he didn't pass this morning's fitness test and didn't play this match at all- pathan thinks same too.
Sachin and Kaif are thanking God that they didn't play it!!

I agree. Ups and Downs are common. Let's see how SA plays on this track. My bet is on RP :27:
 
India recovering thanks to Pathan. I think they will pass 100 now and SA will be kicking themselves.

RP Singh gone, India 9/76. Geez this is a pretty ordinary score from the 2nd best team in the world.

You getting a bit nervous, Saffer? This is unlike you oke. I thought you were expecting SA to lay down a bit of bliksem on the Indians. :p
 
Come on . just survive until lunch S.a and let the pitch get niiiiiiiicccceeee and flaaaaaaat .
 
India proved why they are the Twenty20 champs - bowled out in exactly 20 overs

:))) :))) :)))

I learned it from you people.

You people also do the same when other teams are down...........

Nowdays "oke" is less popular than "bru" ...but of course I was never expecting india out for 76...when I heard they were batting i was hoping for 2 wickets before lunch and have india out for less than 350 . So of course I'm happy . I would love to see S.a make 200 plus from here as the pitch isnt THAT bad...I'd hate to see them get less than a 100 lead.....but as they say ozgod...you never can tell what the pitch is like until both team have batted...so no counting chickens yet...
 
cricinfo-

find post of mine like that, and i will shave my head :boom:
 
When was was the last time such a thing happened..Probably our boys were too complacent :D ..Anyway there is still a second innings

Ishant must be pissed off being dropped..But someone tell me why ?
he isn't dropped.. newz channel declared him "Ruled out" couple of hours before the game started.. goes on tos how he wasn't fit to play

Don't blame them, bro.

Its the nature. :D
 
Commentators just mentioned this is the first time any team has been bowled out in 20 overs in a Test match on the subcontinent.
 
Lunch - Day 1
India 76
South Africa 1/0 (1.0 ov)
South Africa trail by 75 runs with 10 wickets remaining in the 1st innings
 
Its good that we are making fast and bouncy picthes. I was sick of that pitch in Chennai.

Probably the team did nt expect it to be so good. Should have taken a batsman more :p
