Are you guys not bored? I am all for India winning but when things are so easy, it can get tedious. Missing that Elgar-Kock partnership from Vizag. 

No dude. Excited to see opposition teams in this case SA batsman who have grown up playing on fast pitches getting humiliated and that too by pacers in India. Loving this!

Imagine people will still whine about Indian pitches. India winning at home. etc.

 

This is absolute decimation of SA. Seamers, spinners, batters all massively outperforming them.

But even they faced some competition at home.

NZ almost won a series there in 2001...0-0 draw

India drew in 2003-04 and gave tough fight in 2007-08

RSA won in 2008, the 2006 series there was hard fought even though Aussies prevailed 2-0

Some of the series were well contested even though Aussies would ultimately get the job done. 

 

Only Aus gave us a scare in 2017. We haven't dropped a single test apart from Pune since 2013...the streak will continue for another 2 years at least.

Smith in the Australian side, is like India missing Kohli and Pujara.

That's a bit of an exaggeration, Smith+Warner=Kohli+Pujara as far I'm concerned. Smith is good in GOD mode right now but he isn't GOD & even with him Oz only managed to draw the series in England. They aren't going to do much in India next time unless more than 1 batter shows up & all their bowlers do well.

Horrible bowling by ashwin ,not fighting the ball at all,just darting in 

That's why I just don't trust him as our overseas spinner anymore, one session he could be bowling good, classical offspin and next one, he would lose patience and start trying variations every ball. 

[Real McCoy]

What is the point of keeping the mid off so deep. He is not cutting the singles off

[Real McCoy]

Umps want two days off it seems Bunch of lazy fatties

So? Players do miss series. That's part of game. 

[Gollum]

Pant missed a few byes in his short stay behind the stumps, hope they aren't counted against Saha's name .

Thats kinda bullshit, batsmen very rarely miss series.

Did India ask Steve Smith to miss the series.Why are you assuming that if Steve Smith was there India wouldn't have won.

[Moochad]

Poor ashwin, teh fast bowlers are taking all his wickets at home now as well 

 

I don't see SA as having many high potential batsmen currently... They hardly have shown any grit during the matches thus far. 

[ssurenn]

Gone 

[Mosher]

Excellent catch from Saha.
