CG Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 We have never lost a test in last 10 years defending 320+.
Laaloo Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 our lead is 275 only right now. we could easily be bowled out in the next hour or so. all it takes is one wicket
Cricketics Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Come on guys. Keep it calm. There is one thing being positive and then being a fans who move from team will lose to team will win already after seeing a bit of success. We got to put atleast 415+. We gave away 5 wickets for 25 last time in first innings. First make sure we don't do that and bowl well. It will be hard to get wickets of South Africans too. They will be looking to bat with ease since there is plenty of time left in the game. Amla, De Villers etc. you know it. After India, they are probably the best batting line up.
Pagalpanti Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 let us cross 350, then we can breathe a sigh of relief. Till then its even.
cowboysfan Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Weather looks iffy on the 5th day,we should declare after lunch

Cricketics Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 :hysterical: Arre tau baarish ho jayegi tab tak. 350 pe band karo tamasha :finger::protest: abeu we are around 300 run lead already. Dhoni should come in next if it's that of a hurry. and we should score 100 runs in first session tomorrow. Ain't no big deal. Even Rohit can hit as he is probably our best twenty20 bat right?
rajmarie Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Lets not talk about winning this match already. Still 2 days of play left. Anything can happen
NareshK Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Hopefully we should win but this has already been beyond my wildest imagination. Dominating a test in South Africa against this team in these conditions with a young team. This is crazy stuff. India has to keep South Africa on the field and tire them out. Chasing 350+ on this pitch will be very tough.
ravishingravi Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 People need to relax a bit. This is still young Indian side against no 1 team. Last innings they can turn it around.
Sooda Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Hopefully we'll still be batting till just before lunch tomorrow at which point we should declare.
youngindia Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 this classic match shows pitch eased up gradually...http://www.espncricinfo.com/south-africa-v-australia-2011/engine/current/match/514030.html would not take any chances...bat them out of the match by posting a huge total.maybe start 15 mins before tea.
Pagalpanti Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Get to 350-360 in 1st hour and then go all out attacking. We should declare by lunch. Be it 380 or 400.
saneindian Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Bhai dheeraj dhariye Tricky part is the expected rain on day 5. Crucial decision on when to declare. Hopefully we are all out after lunch with the lead of around 400-425, will be the best thing
ThePhenomenal1 Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 somebody get the anti-jinx, protect our lads
Trichromatic Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 abeu we are around 300 run lead already. Dhoni should come in next if it's that of a hurry. and we should score 100 runs in first one hour tomorrow. Ain't no big deal. Even Rohit can hit as he is probably our best twenty20 bat right? 100 runs in first hour? New ball is due in 2 overs and India will need to be careful again in first hour. I would say 30-40 runs in first hour without any loss would be good for India. Once Tahir and co are brought into attack then India should go for the kill.

It was a close match.
