South Africa v India Dec 10, 2023- Jan 4, 2024 3 T20s 3 ODIs 2 Tests

[Sea fog]

Burger has 2 now. Not bad for a debutant early in the innings.

 

[eltrain]

Could be a costly drop from Jansen

 

[yabsy]

Who would be the alternatives?
Kishan is a part-timer as well I think.
Saha won't be recalled if he's still knocking about.
Bring back Ajay Ratra, MSK Prasad and Aussie nemesis Sameer Dighe.

Srikar Bharat is the other keeper in the squad who's played a few matches...Just surprised with his 48 tests to date, he's never played as the keeper...Maybe his chance to grab hold of the spot.

Yeah...think about England in the 90s when they'd usually drop Russell for a crunch test to play an extra bowler and give Stewart the gloves.

3/91 at lunch. Great to watch.

You'd like reading the newspaper Die Burger then
It actually means citizen.

 

[Santana]

India in trouble. Playing in South Africa really is their kryptonite

 

[Joffaboy]

The stripes look like s.hit.

Nothing in cricket gives me as much pleasure as seeing Kagiso Rabada at something close to his peak wreaking this sort of havoc against a generally good albeit semi-rebuilding team.

Australia has the attack but SA still has the man, IMO, when he is on, who is the best in the world

 

[Sea fog]

They're missing Nortje too.

 

[WeMissYouMarkCoughlan]

This has a similar feeling to the last series between these two which was one of the best ones in recent times. Average scores in every innings were 200-250.

 

[Santana]

Thakur really is a handy tailender

 

[PhatBoy]

Rahul doing his absolute best to build something respectable here

 

[PhatBoy]

You could never accuse India of being a team who just pack it in, ever

 

[frankrizzo]

Feels like 220- 250 could be decent score looks very tough pitch India have quality bowling and sa batting is pretty sketchy these days.

Most certainly. Great to see Keegan Petersen back though

Burger has 2 now. Not bad for a debutant early in the innings.

Looks a pretty good prospect.

 

[PhatBoy]

Four plays and misses from your 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th balls to start your day from a guy unbeaten on 70 odd.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Rahul is right up for this.

….as he plonks Rabada over square.

95…

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Siraj goes.

9 down.

 

[frankrizzo]

That was really sloppy

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Rahul goes bang for 6.

Brings up a ripper ton.

 

[frankrizzo]

Quality ton might end up being match winning one

 

[PhatBoy]

Not a great player Rahul but a player capable of a great innings

 

[010203]

India will finish on a pretty good total.
