It was out batting that let us down in  both innings.

Lets not blame the bowlers. 

They can't be expected to bowl well and bat well.

They took 20 wkts and did it with style.

you are not getting the point,yes thre batsmen collapsed but that 1st innings effort put SA in complete command of the game ,historically our batsmen have struggled in SA and this wasnt a easy pitch anyways

Lol if you take out batting contributions from our bowlers this might be an innings loss or somethhing

 

Cuz even when Pandya scored it was the bowlers who gave him great support

Conditions which Indian batsmen got for batting were good enough to score 200-250 in both innings.

We can also say the first inning eff up by our batters was the reason .

i am not sure about it 

Then watch the match. 

 

Pitch eases out as the time passes in a day in SA.

 

We never survived to take advantage of that. 

 

Who dropped catch - batsman (Dhawan)

Who scored runs - bowlers (Bhuvi, Ashwin, Pandya)

Who missed run out - batsman (Dhawan)

Who ran out a batsman - bowler (Ashwin)

 

286 on this track v 90-7 which one is worse performance. I will go with later one.

Pitch quickened up on day 2.It was slower on first day.Batting first is always a advantage.We bowled poorly batted poorly lack of practice.

Even Kohli dropped faf of Shami first innings like Rohit took Amla today's the match would have been diff.We need openers good slip fielder.Rahul Rahane must play on these pitches Ashwin is not needed.

92/7 in 1st innings

82/7 in 2nd innings

 

Surely this is not sub 100 type pitch and that too with opposition short of their premier bowler. Its a test match, batsman have to play out and see off the new ball. Once the ball gets old, its easier to bat, but obviously nobody could do it.
