its ok man. dont worry. if you are the no 1 team, then try and save this match. i still believe that we can save. remember england saved the 1st match of the ongoing series.
every country has different atmoshphere. we can play spin better. this is just another direction. dont worry and apply ur self.
had SA batted first, they wd have finished with just 50 on the score board. remember that 84 allo out on the green top. it happens to every team. just go on and play. it ll be ok.
we are not fluke. we are the no 1 team. its true we have won more at home. but then wat. all the team who r no 1 sd be unbeatable at home. we dont have seeming pitches at home. so we are not used to the conditions. but we defenitely improved our game in the last decade with the likes of sehwag,gambhir,laxman. sachin was there before and now also. he was performinng then and now also. but the other guys r lot better than before.
styen was lucky.thats sure. wait , the bitter part is remaining for him now.
Everytime India loses series away from Home, it is always the first innings of India, when they bat, which makes the series loss. This test at present is going SA way. In the next two test India will do better but at the end of the day India will lose the series. SA has never remained as happy hunting ground for India. Zahir Khan is the only bowler India have with international standard. Rest of all including Bhajji are fit to play Galli Cricket

Absolutely correct. We never have taken any steps to improve the quality of our fast bowling. These guys apart from zaheer have neither pace nor variations to trouble good teams. Our batting too invariably fails when confronted with a helpful wicket for fast bowlers.
to rub salt in our wounds and question our number one rank...Hope India gives a fitting reply...if not in the second innings of this test,then at least in the next two tests.
