South Africa v India tests - Jan 2018

[Arthur Crabtree]

Game seems to be drifting a bit. Maybe SA want to up the RRR India need when chasing on the last day?

SA comms were pissed in the last session with Faf game plan, suspect they were nervous that india could win here as well.
baffling stuff from him though.
Holding thinks india could chase 280-290 here, believe most of the Supersport comms think the same.

intresting game since I reckon what ever SA get, they would probably think they can defend the total and what ever india get set they probably think it is chaseable.
looks like another 50-50 chase will be on its way here.
although we probably won't see the flips from the last test.

Lead of 258. This is going South Africa's way. Need those last 3 wickets before they add many.

[meninblue]

Indian flag still missing.

[meninblue]

45 overs session this.

[meninblue]

Bring on Shami.

[Dr Cricket]

Still no new ball taken.

[meninblue]

Rabada played the while over from Ashwin nicely.

[yuppie]

Still not taken the new ball?

[meninblue]

Yes, Shami gets the ball. Good tactics by Virat.

[meninblue]

Still not taken the new ball?

Should have taken new ball. That's silly.

[Dr Cricket]

SA going for declaration batting now nice for me that.
still makes they batting odd in the last session though.

[meninblue]

Rubbish to avoid new ball when wickets are required and pacers are bowling. Faf cashing on it, these runs are taking the game further away.

[Dr Cricket]

should take the new ball, considering they going for shot with the old ball as well.

[meninblue]

270. This tactic is demoralizing for pace bowlers.
