Austin 3:!6 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Think we can take lots of positives from this game. We will be charged up and more focussed in next two games. Only couple of minor fixes and we would still win the series. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk vishalvirsingh, Captain, SLICKR392 and 10 others 1 2 5 1 4 Link to comment
Forever Indian Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 If Kohli gets the selections right and if we perform at our best with bat, ball and catching then we have a chance. But what's the likelihood of all these happening two matches in a row? mancalledsting 1 Link to comment

tweaker Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Kohli & co should get its selection right.Rahane, Rahul should play in the next test.If Shami is not fully fit , he should be replaced by Umesh/Ishant. But I think in next test they will make hero of Rabada speedheat 1 Link to comment
goose Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 if not we want a topless picture of your ex raki05 and Laaloo 2 Link to comment
mishra Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Relieve Kohli of Captaincy. Make Rahane the Captain. Shashtri should be asked to pack his bag. Kumble should take over as interim coach till a new one is found and we may have a chance. I dont see that happening. Hence we will be lucky to avoid a white wash. nevada and ThePhenomenal1 2 Link to comment

Austin 3:!6 Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 How badly I wished it to be a 4 or 5 match series. BCCI Can we scrap few LOIs and have a proper test series. The first test was already better than current Ashes series or any Ind-Sl testSent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk express bowling, saik, vishalvirsingh and 1 other 1 1 2 Link to comment

SLICKR392 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Just now, goose said: if not we want a topless picture of your ex His ex is a pretty bulky dude. @Topic- Our batsmen looked shoook in the first match. Lack of preparation hadn't done us any favor either. Get Rahane and Rahul in, maybe go with an extra batsman since Saha has been contribution jackshit with the bat. Can't rely on Bhuvi all the time down the order. New guy 1 Link to comment

The pitch was supposed to go docile after first session of day 1. And if not ABDV, our bowlers would have had made Africans pay. For once rain came just in time to help us. Our bowlers exploited the situation. However, Second game on, margin of win will only going to increase, unless off course some major +ve change in selection is done Link to comment
Gollum Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 We had luck going our way in this test. In general Saffers had to bat in the tougher phases and the injury of Steyn was a huge swing of fortune. Also most of the catches went to Saha, nahi to humaare slip fielder hum sub ko pagal bana dete. We are losing this series 0-3 because you can't win under a corrupt regime, if you put friendship and corporates/sponsors above team India you deserve to suffer on the results front. We will get a bloody 0-3, 0-6, 1-2 style massacre and then all donkeys will forget everything once Jumping Jhapaak nonsense starts. We will do the same mistakes in Eng but will not lose that badly because Eng too is in a crisis mode, but the real mother of all beatdowns will happen downunder. Aus won't lay out friendly pattas like they did in 2015, they will lay out 1999/2011 style pitches and the results will be even more one sided than 1999 and 2011. Indian cricket is totally ****ed up unless IPL is banned and BCCI/players are held to task. GoldenSun, dial_100, Frustrated and 6 others 9 Link to comment

As bad as our batting looks now , I would still fancy our chances on a pitch with assistance for our bowlers ..just need 1-2 of our batsmen to step up . My worry is if SA offers us a flat pitch having taken the lead already , may help some of our batsmen but our advantage of bowling at a pretty weak batting linup may get negated . if SA bats first and gets a 450+ totals , we are pretty much done . adi B 1 Link to comment

You can't score self goals and still hope to win. Back on topic - I think a win in one of the remaining games is a possibility but winning the series is beyond this team. Link to comment
