Cricket : India vs SA - 2008

[rpm]

Draw indeed - but do you guys think Sehwag will break the world record? Only 100 more runs...

 

[chiskop]

Sehwag hasn't looked like he can be beaten. I wouldn't bet against him.

 

[mercurial]

I think at this point we are all hoping/wishing for a draw. India can still win this one

400 around lunch probably.
Lara's 1st class record of 501* may be in danger, just after tea.

Thanks for cheering me up.

guys i think it'll be a draw,

provided the pitch doesn't break up it should be a draw. At the rate India is going they could bat for 75-80 overs and get a lead of 280-300. Might mean we bat for a bit tomorrow. And then have a full day to save the test. A day is enough time for a team to crumble. Just ask India.

Yoh!!!
I would play till they reach SA score, go wild after that for 30-40 overs Yuvraj style then send in the Proteas.

If you call that wild then how would you describe what they are currently doing?

Nope. I think he will fly early tomorrow morning.

Hes just playing his natural game
If they can score another 280 + tomorrow they can win this.

India are now in the driving seat. The pitch will start to turn tomorrow and become difficult on day five. Thanx to Sehwag they now have what they want and that's bowling last.

 

[chiskop]

Today started much better for us. Sehwag gone, Tendulkar gone.

Apart from these two wickets this morning, we've been completely outbatted - and we batted well.

 

[Ou grote]

Steyn just got his 4th wicket, but alas, we cannot win this one.

 

[Boodles]

Shyte pitch. How is a team supposed to win on this crap. I want to see a result, not a squillion runs scored on a meaningless game.

 

[Ou grote]

Yep, Smith already has 26 of 14 balls.

 

[chiskop]

Wow! I left the house shortly after Ganguly's wicket fell this morning. Get home now, and was completely gobsmacked when I turned the cricket on. i certainly didn't expect to see Amla and the caption 54/1.

What happened to the Indians? Was it the wicket or the bowlers?

 

[milomak]

a result other than a draw here will be miraculous
