Off spin to Duminy wouldn't be a bad thing.

Indeed. Very intelligent bowler.Need to get rid of De Villiers quickly. Wonderful player
Come on, 2 more wickets!
All of the pace bowlers have bowled well. Shami was unlucky imo.
Is Duminy really test class?
Credit to India for this spell of bowling/

Get in!!!!!!!
I often wonder about this. He bottles it a lot.
Cricinfo refreshing and seeing bold text is epic.
GET THE feck IN!
Another!
feck, I wish I wasn't at work
fecking hell!
Faf du Plessis has an average of 58 and is at #7. bloody hell
OMG! This is unbelievable!
India have been superb, only blemishes have been this morning and Ashwin's drop.
I love Shami, btw. Some Indian bowlers bowl well in spells, but even when he's not taking wickets, he bowls well.
Ah there's the typical lower order partnership against India. Welcome back, old friend.
Been watching the last few. How hard is it as a professional spinner to bowl the right length?
He's bowling so many half trackers.

feck off, Philander.
What a fecking awful drop.
feck off
How can he drop that?
Calm down Zing.
I feel like he dropped the game there.
~210 for 7 wickets at stumps with du Plessis out. Would've been unbelievable.

Calm down! SA have to bat last and still some way to go to neutralize the deficit. It was awful drop though. Could have helped in wrapping tail early tomorrow. The ball is still the old one and 14 more overs to go before new one. SA will want to hang in there for those 14 overs and get something like 40 odd runs which will bring them closer to India's total. If Faf would have gone, we would have been looking for wrapping up of tail by 230 or so.
Morkel and Steyn bat a bit. Morkel in particular.
He's one of those tailenders with technique too good for a tailender.
Is Pat Symcox, Arun Lal and Mayanti Langer the worst combination of presenters/experts, ever?

That drop was awful. Very poor.
Ashwin was horrible today, bowled too many balls on the leg. India missed a trick, even if they were not getting a wicket, they should not have allowed Philander to score that many.

The IPL says "hellos".
I must say I am pleasantly surprised that India has made a game of this and are in fact shading it slightly. I honestly thought we would be run over by SA.
8 down now. I have a bad feeling though that India will fold under 150 in second innings
Incredible stat from the commentators! Last 3 teams to play there have been bowled out for less than 50 in one of the innings

150

244 then. We missed a trick giving 20 runs too many to Philander.
Anyway let's see how the openers go about now. They just need to survive the first 20 overs some how, forget about the runs. I will take 200 right now on this pitch

We won't fold for 150.
This is fabulous stuff.
This is fabulous stuff.
All of Pakistan, Australia and New Zealand have been bundled out for less than 50 in the last couple of years. Not at the same ground mind but still...
We need a Pujara special in this one.
Beautiful setup by Philander that. Excellent bowling.
