saneindian Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 When are we leaving for SA? A lot of the players in the ODI team - Mohit, Rahane , Mishra are playing the Ranji matches which started today and will end on 1st Dec. The 1st ODI is on 5th Dec! I hope we are not playing an ODI vs SA 24-36 hours after landing in SA. Link to comment

They need some rest. Link to comment

nitinbwj Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 So 2 days for acclimatisation in SA! We will get slaughtered in ODIs unless Saffies choke :nervous: after seeing the epic CHOKE against padosis..i seriously doubt that.Besides we have good batting lineup than padosis. Link to comment
Debutant Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 after seeing the epic CHOKE against padosis..i seriously doubt that.Besides we have good batting lineup than padosis. How can you forget our great bowling line :dontknow: Link to comment
adi B Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Zaheer has to play both test. He is still better than Shami' date=' Umesh or any other Indian bowler.[/quote'] how?umesh's S/R and avg is better than zak :P Link to comment
KFC_Zinger Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I Still cant believe that our ego full and balls less BCCI allowed their personal agenda to basically alter what could have been a great tour by India....& a great chance to start their march towards No1 in Test. Now...with just 2 Test....its like almost going to leave the fans wanting for more. I accept that 2 test series are ok against WI/SL/NZ/Zim/BD...but with the other ie SA/Eng/Aus/Pak it should be atleast 3 test minimun I think we are losing this series Link to comment
deathmonger Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 How can you forget our great bowling line :dontknow: Our bowling is better than Pak's batting. IND Batting: 9 Bowling: 6 PAK Bowling: 8 Batting: 3 Link to comment
Old guy Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 i think we should win odis easily our bowlers will be little more effective than pattas at home and pitches honestly in odis are good enough for people like kohli to get set and score big ..while south africa have been struggling with batting for some time now in odis Link to comment
G_B_ Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I feel its kohli or bust for India in SA. I do feel Bhuvi will come into his own in SA. Link to comment
Cricketics Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 how?umesh's S/R and avg is better than zak :P I am not going by test. I just feel that an inform Zak, when available and not injured can be better than any other bowler in INdia. Link to comment
jalebi_bhai Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Don't understand why people are saying our batsmen will be under prepared.....Dhawan, Rohit, Raina, Pujara, Mooli, Rayudu and Rahane were part of the A tour two months back.....they definitely will have an idea of the conditions....pitches maybe be less flatter this time around....

GrandMasterSaxy Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 India have the best bowling line up ever... 1. Youngsters 2. Have the pace (consistently 140+ km) 3. Can swing the ball either way 4. Decent spinners who can bowl long spells 5. New and Old ball specialists Our bowlers are quite decent if not the best.

vishalvirsingh Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I am not going by test. I just feel that an inform Zak' date=' when available and not injured can be better than any other bowler in INdia.[/quote'] A full fit fast bowler should be able to bowl 18 overs in ONe day of a TEST.... i beleive ZAk may bowl 10 overs now but only 5 at full throttle- i am watching his no of overs while he is playing domestic matches and he seems underbowling himself...even against vidharbha he bowled just 7 overs and got 2 wickets..................if he has got 2 wickets in 7 overs in 2 spells .. he shud be bowling himself more.
