Just a little side note before the last Indian wicket falls.

When can we expect a grovelling apology from all those fans who choked after the first Test, and after the first Indian innings of the second Test? The way so many SA fans collapse in apoplectic fits of recrimination and denigration is most unbecoming. It's not our cricketers who are chokers. It's (most of) their fans.

I will concede, after being at the grounds for the first day of this match, that it seemed to be shaping up for a very very boring draw... and I'm happy to be shown to be wrong.

You are exempted from having to apologise - at least you were one of the four people who pitched up at Kingsmead. I seem to recall Day 2 had only 3 in the crowd.

All above comments with :p of course. Still, on MyBB a few days back there was one lonely solitary loyal prophetic voice holding out for a win...moi! :p

proteas need 58 to win.
i think dale steyn deserves applause for this. after he was blamed for not wanting to go for the win last week, his bowling on the 2nd day brought this test to life.

We won't get one.

Cowards will slink away until the next opportunity to be negative.

Having said that, I'm now wondering whether we can manage to stay in and get the required runs by day's end. After all, this is cricket.
