We never had pitches in India which assists pace bowler and help batsman to assess their technique in domestic circuit.Atleast few pitches can be provided to players to get prepared for matches in subcontinent.This had deterred pace bowlers to work on their speed.Zaheer,Ishant,Sreesanth and Patel are examples who failed to sustained their speed consistent 90miles.Meanwhile Indian players have to face Morkel,tyne and co who bowls 95 miles per hour on bounce assisting pitches.India's tour in 2005 was a night mare,though Sachin,Sehwag and Dravid if get going,bowling with likes of Zaheer and Ishant can also expose South Africa the way it did in 2005.
BCCI has all money to buy anything in cricket. They can dictate the pitches, change venues and change the series schedules etc. SA board is very very poor as compared to BCCI and they will make pitches suiting to Indian team. SA board will make tons of money from Indian sponsors in return.
So, India will beat SA handsomely this time as money is with Team India.

so that is why India has not won an overseas series in SL, Aus and SA in the past 10 years and crashed out of all major world events in the first round itself.
Hey you folks, Ain't you got nothing better to do? You all are armchair pundits. why not work hard instead of whiling away your time? Dumb, pretty dumd indeed
