Sounds like a good toss for the home team to win ?
It has worked for SA, irrespective of the toss decision is correct or not.
The wicket is not what i've watched on our previous tours here. I think only one bouncer was collected by Parthiv jumping high. a lot been collected around waist, some near chest, some at knee levels. Some edges bouncing well before slips like on Indian wickets.
To not lose any wicket until all opposition pacers have bowled one spell each and to bat till 20th over, Saffers have won the better of this first session. There have been moments when batters have missed the edged, however it happens to all openers. What is important is being there at 20th over. 55 /0 is a credit to these openers imo. Well played. I hope our batters give a strong response like this pair when we come to bat.
