Elgar's exaggerated facial expressions were straight out of the Sri Lankan school of cricket playbook. 

Haha.. Ya, Lankans came to mind straightaway.

South Africans love pace and bounce my ***. 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

[Laaloo]

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.

they were happy to bowl at us.. specially to tailenders..

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]

They wanted a live pitch to have a go at India. And then they themselves run away

[CG]

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.

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.

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?

Very true ... no one likes pace and bounce or play them well  ... SA just showed today how afraid they are of hostile, bouncy  fast bowling, and are inept at handling it.

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

Both teams have to agree that the conditions are dangerous.

 

 

How does south africa get out of this with a 'no result'? Its a forfeiture or play on.

Thats not how it works.. Umpires decide it

did u hear him just now... he said he wouldn't want to bowl on tis kind of pitch because it would be cheap wickets 

 

pretty sure every bowler would want to play on this pitch...

Did he mention "cheap wickets"?

 

I never heard him say the same for Old Trafford pitch where we were at 8/4 one time.

[adi B]

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!!

[King Tendulkar]

This is pathetic 

 

we all know if shoe on other foot game would go on . Comments about Indians not man enough , we batted ok blah blah 

 

get out their saffies and face the music . We got pace and more pace coming for you . Suck it up

I hope they run away. The series will be remembered more for that than Ind losing it 

 

Ind should win a series in SA sooner or later

Holding really pushing for match abandonment  he's forgetting watch pitches were like when he was a bowler

 

why does dis guy hate u guys so much??? 

He believes IPL is the reason for the downfall of WI test team. He said that once in an interview in SKY Sports.

[King Tendulkar]

Fact is Elgar been bullied all series by our quicks . He is crap . Send Kohli and rahane our there and they will show you how to be a man on this wickets 

 

 

pussy saffies . Typical bullies . Give them a few tight slaps back back off

Indians completed their innings and are ready to play...if SA have the problem match should be conceded to India plain and simple

That's what logic says.even umpires are idiots ,either call off the play when India were batting in third innings or continue till the end

[CoverDrive]

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
