We've got 4 batsmen in this game who have toured India before. Only AB is on form at the moment, with those odds we'll lose every time.
Unsurprisingly we're yet to find a consistent number 3 since Kallis retired.

Our bowlers bowled far too many loose deliveries, India got a good start as a result.

No bad pitch to talk about this time.

Very poor application shown by the batsman once again. Wicket was easy, they just failed to apply them. AB wasn't out, came of the pad...

Uhmm Kallis hadn't batted 3 in ages. So how was he consistent there when he virtually never batted at 3. Amla was nr.3 and he was consistent.

Hash needs to go back to 3(yeah I know the captaincy argument but ponting batted 3 and captained so can be done) move ab up to 4 and faf back to 5.

Let me rephrase then, we haven't had a consistent number since Kallis moved down the order.

Hash is playing on the move, till he fixes that he'll fail more often than not.
