That will be the problem in test series too, our batting will make their bowlers far better than they actually are in reality. Giving wickets to Dom Bess is criminal.

Sam Curran is not that great bowler.

so blame batsmen, not bowlers.  Bowlers did their job.  Only if we stop playing too many sinners, we can hope for something.  Spinners in these conditions will just release pressure. 4 seamers are needed for consistent pressure from both ends. 

 

Curran mostly got tailenders out.

It is not that simple, bowlers have do more.BTW what heck is Dravid doing selecting only three fast bowlers.

 

First test in SA , they were 12 for 3 but ended scoring 286, who is to be blamed for that loss , bowlers or batsmen.They did play 4 fast bowlers there.

Pretty disappointing game. Shocking surrender from tail-enders in both digs.

 

Few positives:

• Prithvi Shaw is raising his hand up and showing he is ready for big boys league.
• Rahane got to spend reasonable time in the middle in both innings.
• Pant continued his red-hot form and got himself into test squad.

bowlers bowled badly on day one in SA and that decided the series.  Dravid selected just 2 seamers against WI A.  somehow batsmen came to the party and chased 300 plus in 2nd test.
