I don't think one can fault the batsmen too much in this test, this pitch is unplayable at times. The inconsistent bounce particularly. If South Africa could somehow get to a lead of 150 I think they have a good chance against India - it'll be tough though, it could just as easily end up being an innings win for India. How anyone can prefer T20 cricket over the intrigue of tests I don't know!

Well there's people who think Avatar was a good movie and there's chicks who thought Leonardo DiCaprio was cute in the 90s.

Total Chaos. There was a time I thought this game would end on day 1 itself 😂

India ahead, but if South Africa manage a lead of 150,it can get very tricky.

As exciting as this test match was, I don't think anyone wants to see a test end inside of 2 days. If this pitch were in the subcontinent everyone would be complaining that it was unacceptable. I wonder what the ICC will grade it?

I've been watching this Betway T20. Jeez it's taken off there big time. Some great cricket. That Donovan Ferreira played in the T10 here, he really set it alight tonite, he does that a couple more times and he'll be in the SA squad.

The SA20 for me is the most entertaining T20 league. The IPL is too long, the BBL lacks star power, the SA20 has stars and is over and done with fairly promptly.

SAA had 148 aircraft servicing 74 international destinations and 24 domestic ones.
Theyre now down to 9 aircraft servicing 17 destinations in total. :lol:
