makes no sense. And does Sachin need to score a ton in every innings, every test ? what are others there for ?
It is fine if SRT fails to score a ton every time. Gives others an opportunity to shine.
The Wall Rahul Dravid needs to score. VVSL needs to score ( which he is doing ), Dhoni needs to score ( he's trying his best ).. and so on.

Hopefully you share the praise SRT gets when he scores with the likes of Very Very Special, who stands up so often under pressure.
Some people naturally are turned off with relentless praise when the team is losing by an innings and excuses when the team could be in a winning position.
Good chance to do something meaningful in this test itself. VVSL is still around, Pujara is able to play a patient game. Dhoni will do the same. Bhaji can kick some butt.
Return of Zaheer Khan seems to have helped India's cause due to his wicket taking ability.
From cricinfo, one interesting statistic was; India has not lost a match when Murali is standing in for Gambhir; in fact won a few matches with him on board. Hopefully we'll take this test.

couldn't agree more ...looks like Murli Vijay is lucky mascot for India... I hope he proves one more time lucky mascot and we square the series 1-1 right here...
A team which collapses in conditions that is supposed to suit it is the new No 1 ? really ?. How many times has anybody seen India collapse against spin and that too in India ?.
Something to thiink about the way sachin got out in the last four innings very unlike Sachin the ever green baysman.He is playing like 20-20 match he needs to think about.Since I believe no one is capable of advising him.

Something is weird on this track. All super batsmen have fallen. And does Sachin need to score a ton in every innings, every test ? what are others there for ?
It is fine if SRT fails to score a ton every time. Gives others an opportunity to shine.
The real let down this time was the Wall Rahul Dravid's failure.

do u ever see any positive things..This is such an interesting match...Come outta SRTobsession, Enjoy the game ...
I thought it was foolish to get the South Africans out sooner on the second day becuase I felt with the kind of players we have in the present bunch it was not worth as they would be all out on the third day and South Africans will be gifted two days to easily score the required runs.
