Vishwa should come around the wicket. The swing has gone now.  Typical left arm seamer mistakes.   

 

 

He's too slow. Someone like Arshdeep would do better here and he also comes round the wicket

Same pace more or less.  Vishwa Bowls in mid 135k range like Arsh

In Duleep, even Arshdeep was bowling 120's.

Beautiful ball by Prabath.

Looks there's no home advantage anymore lol. All teams are somehow struggling at the same time on home soil.

Phattu batting by Sa, almost 8 down if Mulder won't bat..

Wouldn't say NZ are struggling.

Prabath jaisa bowling Jadeja ne kabhi Kiya nahi hai India ke bahar. He bowled well in England also.

Surprisingly, Bavuma does well in Tests compared to other batters in their side.

Embuldeniya bowled brilliantly in SA in That 2019 series too.

Prabath is class though.

He will torment our batters in SL next cycle

NZ lost to Australia early this year

India lost at home 

 

Pakistan lost to Bangladesh 

 

England lost a test to Sri Lanka 

 

Australia lost two consecutive Tests against West Indies and now india 

 

Bangladesh got swept by South Africa 

 

There's definitely a trend which is a good thing. Test cricket was getting extremely predictable.

[Lone Wolf]

At this rate even Poyzz must be eyeing a rare test win for them in SA.

Their Trundlers might relish these conditions too @Nikhil_cric

Yeah but that's got little to do with home conditions.

 

NZ have only won 1 Test against Australia in 30 years.

Some aggressive batting by Maharaj ..

Yep. Very poor batting lineup.  An average team would have been 4 down against the level of bowling they faced as per Cricviz' model.  SA are 7 down with 1 guy injured.

Poor captaincy by DDS to feed spin to Maharaj.  Bowl full fast at his stumps.

 

Crucial runs getting added

Khurram Shehzad Shaheen Naseem could be three quicks , Jamal as all rounder.

 

But Centurion and Newlands would not be easy for their batters as well.  

Rabada Jansen are in top form & Coetzee is Phaaaaast
