Premature declaration

After they made centuries, and there was time, India should not have declared the first innings closed. Both batsmen could have played a one day or even Twenty-twenty innings, since they had nothing to lose. In cricket, matches are played in worse light conditions, and unless the batsmen objst, the match could have continued till the mandatory overs were completed. India could have put on 39 or more runs, and even 50 was not impossible. Each run scored would have made SA work for that run, in their second innings. I expected the Indian think tank to continue the innings and declare in the morning to put SA into bat. Now they lost valuable time, avoidably. If one wants to be in the winning seat all the time, some unconventional decisions have to be taken

SG:

Should we have declared early so that we DIDN'T lose valuable time, or should we have not declared?

How could we have gained valuable time by not declaring? :)

As if India is going to win
by Karthik B on Feb 17, 2010 02:12 AM

Why bother .. India not going to win ..with just 1 bowler (Zheer) .. India going to take 10 wickets .. Dream on .. Harbhajan Singh didn't get any wickets (Proteas just gifted him the wickets) .. Ishant is in Horrible form and Mishra as well .. that leaves only Zheer .. so it will be a Draw .. don't cry guys
