You mean Rohit Sharma is NOT a flat track bully? ffs he was playing worse than a tailender. Had absolutely no clue what was going on with the ball.

He looked clueless today tbf. One of the worst imo. Dominating win by SA
I did not see his full innings. I saw his first twelve balls and he was bad but it was very good bowling from steyn.
With two new balls, id say the first ten overs are the hardest to play and he did very well taking the shine off in England. Dhawan has a shady habit of being at the non strikers throughout the first ten.
Lets the visit this post at the end of the series. I think rohit is not a flat track bully.
You mean Dhawan has the ability to take singles early on, while Rohit goes into block mode.
I'd say if Rohit wasn't going into block mode, there'd be a wicket or two going down quickly in some of the matches India have played.
I'm relaxed.
It's just the first ODI. Batsman will improve. Yuvi is finished though.
Kohli still showed his class.

Kohli got out unable to deal with the extra bounce too. Still got it all to prove.
Yesterday Rohit was not going in block mode, he had no clue what was going on.
The pitch for today's game. This is gonna be fun!
281 to win. Looks tough on this surface, this much should usually be a winning first innings total here. Bad last over.
Steyn in full flow - what a sight for a cricket fan. Even when it's against your team.
Best bowler to come out of SA, imo.

I mentioned this a while ago, before he made his three hundreds.. De kock is going to be world class. Some of the shots he played today were outrageous. Admittedly, it was against our bowling.. It was the nature of the shots, though.
They get shown for what they really are whenever they step out of the country, yet we have three dedicated sports channels showing programs about these people 24X7 even when their is live football on. I hate cricket.
No other country would put such mediocrity on a pedestal. They're showing Outsanding Ojha on SS2 as we speak. I can't imagine there being one hour shows in Brazil about Kleberson.
Told YOUS you're going to get "white-washed"! 
Why do you keep stressing on the term White washed in that manner?!
No reason amol, unless you I'm secretly racist!
Joking bro. I'm just messing around with my Indian homies, that's all!
India simply aren't good enough in these conditions. More effort should be made by indians to be able to adjust better. If Sunil could bat as he could against the west indies fast bowling machine, there are no excuses for this lot.
They're giving wickets to Ishant so that he gets selected in the test team XI. Sneaky cnuts these South Africans.
Yes. Dhoni shouldn't fail prey to these cnutish tactics. Let's see if SA can resist temptation when Ishant comes back for 2nd spell and bowls all over the place. It was also pathetic on their part to rest Steyn and Morkel. Definite plan to catch India off guard in Wanderers test after they feast on Parnell and Co today.
De Kock is a legend in the making. 3rd ton in a row and he's looked comfortable all day long.
Probably got him out now.
ABDV the best ODI batsman in the world?

Poor india, had a good start but ran out of gas. Have no idea how these lads are meant to take 20 wickets in sa. No chance we lose the test series, no chance at all.
Yup
. Can't wait till they finally give Rilee Roussow his chance. Him and de Kock could lead us to the promise land.Yup
Forget Jerusalem, we want the World cup buddy
First test starts tomorrow.
I'm strangely unexcited after our performance in the ODIs. Expecting a shellacking.
okay, I'm excited now.
India batting.
Let's win this, I say.

Seems like South Africa ploy of getting out to Ishant sharma has worked. He's playing today. The rest is good team IMO. The best team we could've chosen.
I wanted to see Yadav in place of Ishant, but probably both of them are equally shit, with equal likelihood of bowling good spells.
Good luck my Indian friends!
Ishant.........mmmmm
Bet 1K on India to not lose this series . Got offered 3x the money if I win.
I hope that's rupees because that is money wasted.
The batsmen are already looking like a mess, would be surprised if this went to 5 days.
It is. And it isn't. Just wait and watch. I'm oddly confident.
anyone watching it?
Following it online. Theoretically, not a bad start.
Looks like quit a few edges that went to four, though.
