I think both BCCI and theIndian team have not taken the RSA challenge seriously after India's more than average performance in Australia. For the 3rd innings on trot the South african batsmen have scored heavily. One of the reasosnfor the pathetic bowling performance is the fact that Anil Kumble has chosen to play the test in spite of his injury. Should have opted out.
this is the consistency test for team india.after decent test series & wonderful CB series in AUS,momentum was there to carry on to next series,but as usual it didn't happen.reason for collapse is just no planning but recurring mistake,agreed sometimes u may get out on very low score,then opposition also shouldn't get much but here,its above 400 runs lead with 3 days to go,sure it is not a 500 runs pitch,definatly not

how,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, you will pray to god,, that the rain will come ,, so that the match will draw
One state cant give/share drinking water to another, and bunch of jokers are fasting to fool the people.Tribunals and Supreme Court are helpless and have no answer. Yet there is a team India for Cricket.
this is going to be biggest defeat.... sure SA will continue it n score more than 600 and 2nd inning (virtually 4th inning of test mtach) India will allout in 150... (while india batting,, again pitch will turn into bowlers favour ........... can not avoid this....

This test will be over in record time and with biggest defeat for team India. But once the tests are completed all these players will play that tamasha IPL T20 cricket and everyone will forget this test series. The Indian "stars" will carry on like they did earlier.
