[Tillu]

What's the point of those 42 runs. They could have scored 7 less runs and broke the record.

Bro he was looking amazing in that T20 series itself on those Pattas... I called him Jansen 2.0.

He was bowling much quicker as well.

Yeah I remember you saying that. Need to watch him bowl later

What record?

[cowboysfan]

luck with the saffers,Bavuma was very very lucky to score those runs,if he went early they would have been bowled out cheaply.

36 all out

[R!TTER]

It was 36/9 technically speaking, most of these records will be broken regularly so no need to wait too long 

[Tillu]

Just like Ashwin and Jadeja, SA bowlers averages and strike rates needs to be under a lot of scrutiny. These SA pitches are just dust bowl equivalents in India.

[Nikhil_cric]

Coetzee fastest ball 153.6 kph.  Express stuff.

Yeah & when many of us point that out it's called "brown nosing" whatever the *'s that's supposed to mean 

 

We've made most of the tracks against top 4 sides needlessly spin firendly post-2012 Eng series, while the series results have been mostly in our favor, but our batting stocks have taken a major hit due to that! What's worse is that we never needed to make them so spin fiendly that often, a few draws would've been fine, IMO 

 

Oh but we needed to humiliate goras every time with a whitewash

Pitch is not that one-sided. Its just SL batsmen are trash.

 

SA scored around 200 runs which is good.

200 isn't good. 200 is scored on rank turners in India.

[VT87]

Its remarkable that Kohli has almost 50 average in SA on these joke of the pitches even after playing so many matches in SA I think he has 4 tours in there

By visiting teams

South Africa showing CT on their summer schedule 

[VT87]

CT in SA confirmed 

[Sandz]

Data clearly shows that he is pretty average/ below average in spin friendly and swinging conditions.

I don't know man. He looked solid out there.

they dropped him and he was out on a no ball.

[putrevus]

Pitches every where in general have become bowler friendly.

 

We are rarely seeing 500 plus scores.

this is typical SA pitch,some poor batting by both teams like playing away from body and not leaving the balls .

[Number]

Although our bowlers won us 2nd test in SA last year but first test was totally lost by bowlers+captain.

Our batsmen had scored enough runs around 250. Letting SA score 400+ there was criminal.

 

[Lord]

I blame SL bowlers for losing this match
