2nd Test: South Africa v India at Centurion Jan 13-18 2018

[Fufu Andronez]

Has been a great series so far, for all the hate that India cop about playing at home and being flat track bullies, they've at least shown they can foot it with South Africa and push for wins.

The curators also deserve credit, they've produced pitches which aid both bowler and batsman at times.

If only the time difference wasn't so bad it would be the perfect series I reckon.

Time difference is great for me here in Perth.

Great innings by Kohli, singlehandledly keeping India close

 

[Tommy Smith]

Credit where it's due for Kohli.

That's an amazing innings.

 

[vvvrulz]

Shocking that they dropped Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, that will cost them.

Kohli really is a magnificent player, merkin or not.

 

[TheParraboy]

I despise run outs in cricket, should have a criminal record against your name

In Pandyas case give him that, plus 30 days in solidary confinement to think about his run out

 

[some11]

That knock by Kohli is something Smith will in all likelihood have to emulate when we play them.

 

[JJ]

I see Kohli has been fined for being a Warner...

Special innings by him though, AB showing he's special too though, and Elgar that he's the real deal

 

[Desert Qlder]

That was an amazing over from Shami. Four straight edges with the fourth finally taken.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I see JJ is still obsessed with Warner.

 

[Bazal]

Kohli is easily the biggest merkin in International cricket.

Shame. You want to like him as a batsman but he's just a complete f**kwit. He's this era's Matt Hayden, but actually a good bat

 

[TheParraboy]

I see Kohli has been fined for being a Warner...

whatever happened to if it doesn't happen in Australia it never happened ??

Kholi is a role model captain - end of story

These things only ever involve Australians mate, it's gotta be fake news.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

De kock soft again

 

[TheParraboy]

lunch day 4

SA 201 runs ahead - 5 wickets in hand

faf still there

If SA can bat another session get another 80-90 runs then I cant see India chasing that down,
enthralling last day coming up all the same

Big bad rude boi Davey upset you again? I wish they were nice blokes like B-Mac

 

[Fufu Andronez]

Is Philander an all rounder now? Seems pretty early for him to come in at 5 down

 

[JJ]

India in trouble

 

[vvvrulz]

India probably won’t climb out of this, their one player who can handle tough conditions is gone.

Pandya and Ashwin might go on a merry swing which could come off.

 

[JJ]

Pujara is another with a huge home (62) vs away (37) split - chance for him to put in a performance in conditions that don't suit him?

But yeah, the Jaapies are looking good
