sensible-indian Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) Yes, this thread could backfire on me bad. But I believe in our team. I have a feeling we are going to fight tooth and nail today. Every single player is going to give it ALL they got. This Indian team came back in Bengaluru when they were truly down and out with the series almost gone. This team has a lot of resilience and ALL the pent up anger, hurt and frustration is going to come out on the field in the form of performance. This is going to be glorious day of cricket. Spartans, tonight we dine in hell. Edited January 16, 2018 by sensible-indian tweaker, sandeep and SLICKR392 1 2
Sonix768 Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 I honestly don't understand how can anyone give up hope on India's chance here. This pitch is basically Asian pitc hright now. And I don't see SA survive Ashwin today for more than a session. So we are chasing around 200 again. But this time we will do it. SA don't have enough bowlers to trouble us in the 4th,5th day crumbling pitch. Philander will be ineffective, Morkel will be tired. We can deal with Maharaj easily. Ngidi and Rabada might trouble for some time due to their pace but they also won't be able to sustain constant pressure like they did in Cape Town. We are winning this.
adi B Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 On field under kohli I have no doubt we always give our best and you get a feeling every time the game gets away from us that we'll somewhere down the line make a comeback,but it's the batting which is too shabby atm and I don't trust them surviving 100 overs or chase 250+ SLICKR392 1
Temujin Khaghan Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 we are 9 players... they are thirteen... (South Africa XI +rohit + parthiv) its not a fair fight... 9 versus 13
flat_wicket_bully Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 If we can somehow get ourselves to chase around 250, there is still a minor chance if our batters dont throw their wickets away like in the first innings. But what are the odds of that happening
chapetmarunga Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) SA will give us 350 plus runs to get & we will barely get 150 + Edited January 16, 2018 by chapetmarunga
Gollum Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 What, is Parthiv Patel dead? Lannister, Laaloo, sensible-indian and 1 other 4
cric_fan Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Ind are clear fav’s. They will get ABD early & run through the rest. Ind to win by 4wkts.
swapnil123 Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Fight and aggression is one thing, skills another. Ashwin took 0 wickets even against a left hander, he's not gonna do much better. Indian pacers..... Yeah they have no hope
King Tendulkar Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 We have lost de villiers gonna bat all day this is painful
SandeepMotta Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 South Africa will declare in the final session.
kubrickian Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Not enough firepower in bowling. ABD will take SA to a position where they cant lose. India will fold within 150. This is my prediction.

sensible-indian Posted January 16, 2018 Author Posted January 16, 2018 Lol. We did fight with the ball i suppose but couldn't handle the uneven bounce of the new ball by sa Pacers. Conditions will likely ease out tomorrow as ball gets old but we may not have the batsmen to capitalize by then. Did our bowlers do enough today? Less said about our batting, the better.

There were a lot of reason to believe we would fight hard looking at this team's past history. To a certain extent, bowlers did fight hard. Batsmen were just too poor. The pitch is solid to bat on even now. Just had to keep out a few low bounce deliveries. We didn't play as a team. Everyone is mentally down. Edited January 17, 2018 by sensible-indian
