We will bounce back

maatlab :hmmm:

Cut the rope nu solran

It was definitely a very pacy and bouncy pitch. It will take some time for some of the Indian batsmen to get used to the conditions. I think, South Africa had their best game of the series already. I would expect a much better competition in next two games. South Africa are still favorite to win the series only because Indian bowling is not as good.

This match was a freak. We are not as bad as this. Will we back and put up good show. Wrong selcetion in trundlers. Unleash Yadav and Shami with new ball next game. Fight fire with fire. Tell Yadav to bowl fast, we will back you. The pitch is quickest in SA, it was brutal today. Any batting line up would have struggled against that SA attack in thos conditions. Steyns first spell was ridiculous. It wont be that hard again, next match pitch is easier, we will be ok in next match. The batters are young. They have had a taste. They will rise to the battle. We gonna put up better show now, cob webs are off. We will bring it now

next match is at durban which will be more pacey and bouncy then today..no team can afford to concede 250 on these tracks especially under lights

According to SA commentators Durban will be slower than this.

Dhoni: "The thumb is fine, nothing to worry. Not a good game for us. We didn't start well with the new ball when we bowled. It was definitely not a 350 pitch so our bowlers let us down. I think we were quite well prepared. We made the most of those 2-3 days before this. It's important for us to bowl well. Once the opposition has scored 350 we have to go for the bowling. More than the death bowling I was more disappointed with the new-ball bowling. We didn't find the right lengths. I think we need a bit more pace. Let's hope for the best

Hope he doesnt mean Ishant

[fineleg]

Next match also Mule Singh Dhobi will say "Unchanged side" at toss

[imranraf]

Durban should offer enough help for Ashwin and Jadeja. I would expect a much better performance from India in Durban.

So if india bowling was better, what is the problem with their batting today.

[Ghost Buster]

Nope, 3-0 and 2-0 in tests :((

[vvvslaxman]

460 on the cards lol

We should remember that our young team had no time to acclamatize to totally different SAF conditions. There was no practice match which is very unfair on us. This wad their bounciest and perhaps fastest pitch. We should perform better in the coming matches provided we pick Umesh along with Shami. Yuvi should sit out too. Our team is a fighting lot and things should improve.

[coffee_rules]

Yes we will.. we will be bounced back.

I can give benefit of doubt to batsmen as they only get one chance to make a mistake. But bowlers should have done better. But i guess we don't have the type of bowlers to make use of the conditions. Fast and hit the deck kind of bowlers. Relying on conventional swing and reverse swing may not work. Ball didn't swing that well for us. Infact Sreesanth swung much better than these guys in SA.

Hope he doesnt mean Ishant

Even ishant is fine,we don't need 2 spinners on green tracks.
