Don't know y u acting like a chimp but didn't RSA almost lost their home series to us last time with our equally crap bowlers like Sreesanth etc

I agree with ya but our bowling even at that time wasn't excellent or outstanding still RSA almost lost the Ted series. I m just reminding Prenzo of that

If you mean by openers, we don't have any at the moment. Barring Sehwag having an amazing recovery, we should look for openers in the Akash Chopra mould for the Saffie tour- someone who can blunt the new ball, take the shine off of it and not expose our middle order too much. As such, what India needs, is two openers who can average 25 in South Africa at a strike rate of 25-30. That will be job well done in my books.

Someone who can stand outside the crease to kill the outswing can do well against steyn. Dinesh karthik did that both in England and SA.

Unfortunately for KKD, he is not tall enough like Matty hayden to negate the bounce of short pitched bowling by standing out of his crease. For, if you are going to stand outside your crease to negate the swing, you better be 6 feet tall or more, like KP or Hayden, to ride the bounce. Else, Steyn and Morkel will pitch it short and kill you.

that was on a pretty flat pitch though, that M clarke innings. australia in recent times have been playing their games on flattish pitches. that just makes india's 4-0 loss a whole lot worse.

I think of th current batters, Sachin has does really well against Steyn and co. He has 4 centuries in 5 test matches I think since 2010. But what KP did that day was brutal.

Kp himself admitted that pitch was good Clarke played much much better innings imo on much tougher track

Pietersen and Clarke's innings have been one offs. The way Sehwag has manhandled Steyn and the entire South African attack has no parallel. He has made a mincemeat out of their line up on multiple occasions.

Clarke was even more dominating in australia But his 150 odd in south africa imo tht inning was better then sachin's hunderds in south africa.. Brilliant attacking knock on such a tough track
