South Africa vs India | 2nd test | Ahmedabad | 3/4/2008 to 7/4/2008

[TigersFan]

hahaha

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)

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!!

 

[Random Aussie]

Classic from the Indian commentators: "Luck has not been with them today"

 

[Murad]

need one more to b highest.

Oh yeah. forgot about the 18 extras.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Pathan doing a good job
Moves on to 21

 

[alexjohn_tcr]

No need to worry.Such things happens with all teams once in a while.They have been playing really well for quite some time and today was one off day

 

[TigersFan]

India's lowest total at home is 75, against West Indies in Delhi, 1988

 

[Random Aussie]

India have passed their lowest total at home now - can Pathan get them to 100?

 

[Murad]

India 73/8 (18.1 ov)

I agree. Ups and Downs are common. Let's see how SA plays on this track. My bet is on RP

 

[OZGOD]

India recovering thanks to Pathan. I think they will pass 100 now and SA will be kicking themselves.

 

[Crickteria]

R.P gone. Caught in the slips.

 

[Random Aussie]

RP gone - Steyn has 4/28

[161]

R.P. gone and India R.I.P.

[Crusader]

This would be some fun. Wish we had Ishant.. But does nt matter

 

[saffer]

Now S.a have to bat . India could bowl us out for a really low score too...so let's not say too much until we saw both teams bat once .

 

[wanted_desi]

man i wish Ishant was in team today

 

[Random Aussie]

Which means we have arrived.

And now departed (at least temporarily)

 

[TigersFan]

India all out - India 76 (20.0 ov)
some cheap 20-20 game batting I would say

 

[Crusader]

Oh damn OZ you screwed the whole web page

 

[Crusader]

OZGod pls fix the scorecard

 

[srg]

yes just as i hoped..


hahaha..

oh im gonna have a good sleep now..... its already 1:50Am....

You are sick! You find happiness in other's failures !!

 

[bablu_khan]

Ozgod, can u fix ur post.. it has messed up this thread's width.. kindly deleat or fix that mate..

 

[Crusader]

India all out - India 76 (20.0 ov)

It happens once in a while..In the T20 match against OZs..

 

[OZGOD]

Now S.a have to bat . India could bowl us out for a really low score too...so let's not say too much until we saw both teams bat once .

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.

 

[saffer]

Come on . just survive until lunch S.a and let the pitch get niiiiiiiicccceeee and flaaaaaaat .

 

[Sheikh_Ji]

India proved why they are the Twenty20 champs - bowled out in exactly 20 overs

) ) )

 

[OZGOD]

Ozgod, can u fix ur post.. it has messed up this thread's width.. kindly deleat or fix that mate..

It's fixed on my resolution - is it still messed up on yours?

 

[Crusader]

You are sick! You find happiness in other's failures !!

Leave him mate..I told him to see a doctor to get over his nightmares, but he still dont listens

 

[the_game]

Steyn is insane!

 

[srg]

Now S.a have to bat . India could bowl us out for a really low score too...so let's not say too much until we saw both teams bat once .

Yeah, you are right. Anything can happen on this track!

 

[Crickteria]

why so. infact gaing more confidence that team can do it again

Like getting out for 76 again in the 2nd?

 

[Murad]

You are sick! You find happiness in other's failures !!

haha

I learned it from you people.

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

 

[Crusader]

It's fixed on my resolution - is it still messed up on yours?

OZ please fix it mate. It all screwed up in IE

 

[saffer]

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.

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...

 

[TigersFan]

cricinfo-
India proved why they are the Twenty20 champs - bowled out in exactly 20 overs.

 

[Crusader]

Ishant must be pissed off being dropped..But someone tell me why ?

 

[bablu_khan]

It's fixed on my resolution - is it still messed up on yours?

it's fine now mate.. thanks

 

[wanted_desi]

haha

I learned it from you people.

[saffer]

South Africa have a tricky over to play out before lunch .

 

[Crusader]

When was was the last time such a thing happened..Probably our boys were too complacent ..Anyway there is still a second innings

 

[bablu_khan]

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

[Murad]

Hahaha

Don't blame them, bro.

Its the nature.

 

[Random Aussie]

Commentators just mentioned this is the first time any team has been bowled out in 20 overs in a Test match on the subcontinent.

 

[Crusader]

Alright... SAffers will be all out by 150 - 200..ok lunch time..

 

[TigersFan]

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

 

[Crusader]

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
