India's Tour to South Africa, 2013

[King Tendulkar]

I think Dhoni is a defensive Captain .... :hmmm:

Defensive or offensive. What would you think of amin and malik bowled in SA from 12 over. And Irfan and Junaid bowled a combined 6 overs only in first 35 overs. You would not think defensive or offensive. You would think madness! No way pace bowlers can develop with such cpataincy

[Zanjeer]

I'm happy India is playing lot of matches overseas so that it would expose the impotent captaincy by dhobi. We can win only in NZ because they would kiss bcci's bum and produce phatta wickets like the last time. Other than NZ, we are not going to win anything.

[Sidhoni]

We went with this yesterday Rohit Dhawan Kohli Rahane Raina Dhoni Jadeja Nothing much we can tweak here now, its the performance that mattered and will matter if we are to avoid a whitewash.

[Pagalpanti]

Win the toss bat first and put up a decentish total around 220-240. Chasing in a day-nighter in SA is very tough.

injure amla,kidnap steyn and cut the kock!!

[Khalpat]

Be Positive and aggresive. Show aggresiveness in batting, bowling and fielding play as if you are playing a do or die match in an ICC tournament.

I hope the South Africans prepare another green track and pepper these overrated FTBs with bouncers and then whack the trundlers for another 350. I'm glad this series is showing the real quality of this overrated BCCI side.

u have changed

India is not winning any match in this series. They can what ever they want to do man.

[Gunner]

- Bring in Mohit for Ishant. - Give Shami and Yadav the new ball and use them in 4-3-3 or 4-2-4 spells. Set an attacking field and look for wickets always - the best way to stem the run flow. Avoid bowling good-length dollies at the death. - Finish the quota of your 5 specialist bowlers and DO NOT USE PART-TIMERS. - Ask the top order to see off the new ball(s) without losing wickets.

What why? What did Ishant do wrong now to be dropped after 1 match :facepalm: Please don't have trundler Mohit anywhere near the team. This is getting embarrasing now.

Ishant bowled one or two good deliveries each over so no point in playing ishant again after the series has been lost. If ishant can have so many chance, why not mohit ? series lost anyway :dontknow:

[Gunner]

What why? What did Ishant do wrong now to be dropped after 1 match :facepalm:

Because Ishant can single-handedly lose us the game. I don't think Dhoni will drop him next match, so you'll see for yourself why.

For next 12-15 months Mule Singh Dhobi will give recycled excuses after every overseas match :hysterical: long live mule singh

Whitewash looming

That's all fine and dandy if things go to plan, but what if Yadav goes for 25 off his first two overs. Or what if Shami is bowling at the death and his 7th and 8th overs go for 18 and 23 or something like that? You can plan all you like, but you have got to have some flexibility about those plans.

[mishra]

Find a way to get De Kock cheaply. And dont bat like Pakistani players.ie 3-5 down in first 10 overs.

[Yoda-esque]

Sack MSD
