Sooda Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 I do hope it rains But if it dosent I think even 267 which it is at the mo is too much. And it will end up 300+. It will be a miracle if we can score that much. Link to comment

Rahul Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: How much can we chase down in 4th innings? anything over 250 would be tough IF they go defensive. over-conservative approach may see IND fold for around 150. VS and MSD will be key to the chase. Link to comment
King Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: How much can we chase down in 4th innings? Anything over 240 is pretty much curtains for India. Rahul Dravid and VVS are the only two that will weather the storm if at all. Link to comment
theguyinallblue Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: How much can we chase down in 4th innings? if we bowl out SA..and then draw the match..we will still have our nose upfront... but drawing a match after declaration from opposition is imo a insult...though it takes a lot of skill and mental strength to bat out 4 sessions... so i will take a draw even if we get a target of 325-350... we must get SA all out under 225 in second innigs..

King Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: How much can we chase down in 4th innings? A draw will be a huge boost TGB and that is possible if the bad weather halts proceeding otherwise there will be a result in this test match. Link to comment

theguyinallblue Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: How much can we chase down in 4th innings? dravid must try to take remaining 4 wickets ..as SA must not get the feeling that they have batted india out of the match...350 is still a good enough total..but one partner ship will make SA go on defensive.... so india must attack...

King Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: How much can we chase down in 4th innings? Believe me South Africa's body language when they come out now will be absolutely fantastic. I reckon after the Aussies despite the quality in their team Saffies are one of the most aggressive units you can encounter. They are not 5 footers that just walk in and bowl. They are big fellas that love to intimidate. Link to comment
Sooda Posted December 29, 2006 Author Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: How much can we chase down in 4th innings? Not just that were hardly experts as chasing down 4 innings totals. Even attaempts to draw leave us facked. Basically were screwed and we need rain to save us. Finally morkel out. Smith may as well declare. in fact he SHOULD decalre Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: How much can we chase down in 4th innings? They sure as hell won't chase another 338 runs ! It will be another repeat of the Kingston test of '02. The much vaunted Indian batting lineup will crumble in the face of another tall 350+ 4th innings target. Link to comment
