Poor

4 clean bowled

What is Steyn doing there?

You mean apart from proving once again that no matter who you are and what you've done, the south african public will treat you like chopped liver once they're done with you?

Eish, 73 all out. The strategy of 5 bowlers did not work - they were out bowled by SL, and the batting did not go well.

Should put the Proteas out of their misery today

Another loss in 3 says looming

Shocking performance

Team selection poor

Steyn for a spinner so that we are bowling part timers

de Bruyn made 101

Finally convinced me that he can play at test level. Good innings from him and well supported by Bavuma. Pity their partnership couldn't last until well past lunch.

 

Liked what I saw in their partnership. Combined well with each other.

India on the verge of pulling it back to 2-1 in England.

 

there's a HUGE issue in test cricket currently, home ground advantage. It's quite rare to see an away victory by one of the top teams in a match that is not a dead rubber.

 

Quite an interesting stat, India's highest ranked bowler is the #3 Ravindra Jadeja.

He is sitting on the sidelines. He only really plays in India. Apart from a match in the Windies in 2016 (which is getting spin friendly) he hasn't played a game oustide Asia since 2014.

 

This is the 3rd best bowler in the world. All it really says is that teams are playing on pitches to suit their strengths. That's always been the case but it is getting taken to extremes. We saw that in the recent tour of Sri Lanka, and it is not a good sign for cricket in general.
