These goras happy dishing it out but when they on the receiving end they retreat like cowards. Don't give me that umpires decision BS, Dean Elgar was milking every opportunity to highlight the nature of the wicket between deliveries Agree with you not a single batsman or team like pace and bounce and If they say they do they are lying Under_Score, express bowling and mancalledsting 1 2 Link to comment
Laaloo Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) They were chirpy dishing out to us but when we give them the same in return, they start crying because they can't play on tough pitches. Cowards. You better hope you prepare flat pitches against Australia otherwise Starc Cummins and hazlewood will rip you to shreds.

Yup, bowled a bunch of bouncers at Bhuvi, Shami, Ishant and Bumrah. I don't want to descend to name calling, but Faf's conduct this entire series has been an embarassment to his country.

New guy Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 They wanted a live pitch to have a go at India. And then they themselves run away Gollum and GoldenSun 2 Link to comment
CG Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 This is so unfair .If pitch was bad play should have been called off on day one .Now after 3 days when India is in winning position they suddenly call off play. TheWall, express bowling and Under_Score 3 Link to comment
sandeep Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 3 minutes ago, BeardedAladdin said: South africa have the option to forfeit. They can't abandon a game on their own, it requires agreement from both captains. India will never agree to abandon the game. India can't force the referee's hand on the question of player safety though. Once play is called off, it becomes a big ask to expect the ICC official to make another decision to resume. A risky one, especially if injuries happen, which are a high probability. Only way for game to resume is if both teams agree, and give the ICC an out, a way to be let off the hook, by saying they want to play. I highly doubt South Africa have the cojones to do that though. SA may have won the series, but they'll have to live with the humiliation of hiding behind the referee's skirts. randomGuy, TheWall, chewy and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment

Sachinism Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Not been listening to commentary all day. Has there been much talk of the pitch being dangerous, possibility of match being called off, etc. before SA started to bat? Link to comment

SA just showed today how afraid they are of hostile, bouncy fast bowling, and are inept at handling it. Edited January 26, 2018 by express bowling mancalledsting and Under_Score 2 Link to comment
maniac Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Unfair and also why didn’t South Africans make a big deal about capetown pitch where ball was literally rolling on the floor? Lose or whatever Indians manned up and fought up...either play or give up Link to comment

adi B Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Elgar played like an incompetent batsman and got **** scared of facing 90mph thunderbolts from bumrah. saf are now trapped in their own game ,imagine Indian batsmen walking out of a turning pitch at home sighting unplayable pitch .all hell would break loose!!

CoverDrive Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 This is ultimate beizzati. Little bit like Pune but there we took our L and moved on. Prepare diabolical pitch for home advantage ( nothing wrong in it) and themselves stutter helplessly Link to comment
