vijay50 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 As usual Rohit will screw up big time by leaving straight balls .

Pagalpanti Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I would be surprised if they all don't perform better collectively. NZ attack is good but it is no match to SA and our batsman should be proud of themselves at how they've handled SA attack. However expect Kohli and Rahane to be among the highest scorers.

NZ attack is good but it is no match to SA and our batsman should be proud of themselves at how they've handled SA attack. However expect Kohli and Rahane to be among the highest scorers. This is where we will get it wrong. We don't have to compare NZ and South African bowling attack. It's off course South African attack, which is better on paper and also more experienced. You have to remember the pitches which come to play and conditions. Every player in the world knows that when they go to South Africa, pitches and bowlers are tough to face and it will be tough for them to score runs. IN New Zealand, pitches are not only tough, they are unpredictable. Nothing close to falt tracks, but some inconsistent bounce and always there for the bowlers, which usually local bowlers use it pretty well. The pitches are no way a day 5 perth pitch, but they are surely enough to test our bats at times. It's not easy to hit double hundreds there. You can look great with a hundred and then you will be unsettled by some crazy deliveries in a row which could take your wicket. Even set batsman batting in 120s sometimes find it tough all of a sudden. Beauty of cricket in NZ.
Tailender Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Trent Boult clean bowls Sachin Tendulkar - YouTube Sample of what we are going to get :cantstop: "Another delivery sachin Tendulkar expected to bounce more " = L Siva wow what an observation.. ball is hitting the top of the middle stump that really should have been his last series. It was painful watching such a legendary batsman being bowled like that a few times, even if it was some good bowling.
Vijy Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 I expect Rahane to do well, provided he bats at 5 or even as an opener.
Texan Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Rahane But weren't you saying that he is useless before this tour?? :hmmm:
rkt.india Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 But weren't you saying that he is useless before this tour?? :hmmm: Opinions can change by good performances. He was poor before that.
Texan Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Opinions can change by good performances. He was poor before that. There must have been some divine intervention. :winky:
