Shami . Practicing for IPL. 6er.

Big wicket that. Ajinkya gone but imo he has ensured we have a match winning total.

Morkel again.

Morkel again.

Morkel was always going to be dangerman in such wicket.

You feel that only de villiers could win this game for S.A.

True. I also thought the same an hour back.

[sussexpob]

You feel that only de villiers could win this game for S.A.

And yet, he could have been out 10 times in the first innings

Nope it's a 6er. Shami tonking them. Tonk a few more.

[meninblue]

223. Chance to win by a good margin. Even a 50 runs wins here is like 150 runs win elsewhere.

If in the 3rd innings a team has batted for 70 overs, it would suggest the pitch can not be that bad.

[Arthur Crabtree]

And batting against an older ball has been possible so posting a total relies on wickets in hand.

But India have enough to defend even in the fourth innings on a normal pitch now, so it should be game over.

[meninblue]

I feel 175 is what SA will struggle to get. That was winning total imo. Not more than that. They doctored this wicket to bowl us out cheaply but it will lead to their loss in fact.

[sussexpob]

If south Africa chase it, it will be up there for great 4th innings efforts. Same as yesterdsy though, the ball at 50-60 overs just stops doing as much. A good effort by top order might give you a chance

[Dr Cricket]

Shami goes for 27 very good innings that.
