India v South Africa -1st ODI

[cowboysfan]

i dont trust these hawkeyes,that did not look out but Gaekwad does not bring his foot forward enough.

[Chaos]

Here comes another faker..iyer. He will be like a rabbit stuck in a pot hole

[vvvslaxman]

That did not look out at all. lol  I could see 2.5 stumps when it hit him. How is that there is no angle at all.

[vvvslaxman]

Hope we don't have review system like this in the Test series. Last time we had a bit of controversy. Batsmen looked stone dead. But review said not out. Ashwin had something to say in the stump mic.

Iyer peppered with bouncers

He will be all his life. He just has to learn where to play where to leave. He has a bit of ego about that tactic.

[vvvslaxman]

I won't be hung up on results of the series. We just need a next good core unit and bench strength. So supporting all these guys.

Ishan went home due to personal reasons so Bharat comes in pls tell me are there no better wkt keeper batsmen in India.

Yea. His batting is one thing. His keeping itself is terrible. 

[cowboysfan]

please dont tell me Sai also struggles against short pitch bowling.

[vvvslaxman]

This pitch is a spicy  pitch. So going to be a test for SaI sudarshan as well. For a 21 year old he is showing no tentativeness so far.

Jaiswal/Sai all have struggles when they play shots. Being young they play it compulsively. I won't call it a "struggle". It is shot selection. Ruturaj is good against short ball. But he has other weakness. Let us not hung up on one weakness while ignoring other weaknesses.

[Sgattick10]

Lol Iyer pulls it lands safely for him.

Is Sai showing glimpses of a generational talent ?

This Burger looks like a beast. Is he in the auction?

Iin terms of maturity he is a constant learner. So people have to be realistic about expectations, consistency and back him.

Not yet. But got the potential to be a good player.

Iyer in Tests against Cotzee, Nortje isn't gonna end well.

[vvvslaxman]

If Arshdeep adds a couple of yards and improves a bit of accuracy he can be good in all conditions.
