Time to deliver for Dhoni and company
by Gurjot Singh on Jan 05, 2011 10:19 PM  | Hide replies

India definitely has the greatest batting line up of all time. ZK is perhaps the best fast bowler at this time. With Bhajji's stellar performance, Indian bowling is the best. India definitely has all the tools to win this match. It is time for Dhoni and company to deliver. I expect a comfortable victory for India. India would have whitewashed SA except for the flip of the coin on first day.

You saw how Indian bowlers panicked in the first test without ZK. Sreesanth and other bowlers become erratic without him in the line up.

Bhajji is no doubt the best indian bowler today....

We all saw that in today's innings

Will lose by lunch

India will lose by lunch, most likely Harbhajan and Sreesanth will be batting by then

We'll find all sorts of excuses. Bad desicions, run outs all the dramas will be there.

Be ready to watch 52 test century from God of Cricket, Unersity of Centuries Mr.Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar.
I request all other players of Team India to support Sachin and not to get out. Just ensure that Sachin completes his century and cup is ours. Dhoni is fit to lift the cup which is won through the expertise of Sachin Tendulkar

Dificult to Win for India
by pappu venkateshwarrao on Jan 05, 2011 10:12 PM  | Hide replies

With Dale Steyn going great it would be a difficult task for India. Only 3 players Dravid Sachin and Laxman can face Steyn. If they survive for the first session without any loss of wicket then we can hope to win

SM:

NIFTY is probably referring to the Ten year old miracle where Bucknor style umpiring and once in a life time innings from Laxman and Dravid had ensured India halted Australia's march toward 17th straight win... :)

If you ask him to show another Laxman-Dravid "saviour" act; he'll find it tough...

And I am curious that people like NIFTY treat test matches as ODIs or Twenty20.... always talking about the second innings and who hit the winning runs; as if
a) the first innings was useless
b) bowlers were just a baggage.. :)

Don't exaggerate. Playing out 90 overs with 10 wkts in hand or scoring 340 in a day, can be considered at most difficult task but not impossible or miracle.

You are No.1. INDIA. Let jealous people scream.Sportsmanspirits??
by Pravin bhai on Jan 05, 2011 10:08 PM  | Hide replies


Well done India. You may win or lose, you gave SA a bloody nose with Sachin,Zaheer,Bhajji.

Let people be jealous and scream, becoz. they themselves couldnt do anything. So they are busy blaming India and would always like to live in India.

Those who dont like India to be No. 1, should go and beg the ICC.

Disregard the pakiponies.

How many times has Laxman chased 484 in the second innings becoz Sachin was a disaster in the first? :)

And how many times did Laxman himself contributed in the first innings?
Boss... if only Laxman learned how to bat in the first innings; most of those second innings heroics would NOT have been needed in the first place... prevention is better than cure.. :)

If only Laxman learnt some batting; most of those fourth innings would NOT even be required.... ;-)

And if you truly want to compare Laxman and Tendulkar in fourth innings in THIS series against THIS bowling; look at the Centurion test... :)

114 runs in a session is not impossible
by Another Critic on Jan 05, 2011 10:05 PM  | Hide replies

Considering the pitch is not assisting fast bowlers and Harris is not a threatening spinner.

It's either a draw or a win for India. It is harder for SA to pick 10 Indian wickets than for India to score 340 runs on the final day.

I can't believe how some people here even think SA can win the test on the final day.

I hope so - but the max runs ever been chased are 311 by the old great OZ Team - so, if our TI can do that, they can be definitely called No ONE.
