Getting out to JP Duminy of all people. :|
Watching that Sachin, Sachin show on Star HD1.
Playing a montage of him batting, mostly his hundreds. Damn.
All good watching these guys make runs for India, but that generation made you feel different.

Reckon Dhoni is trying to get the lead up to 450 and he'll call it a day.
We won't lose this, right?..
At 410, there was no draw in this match. Think these runs from Zaheer has made it either win or draw for us.
This is going to be a harsh lesson for yall.
458 to win. A draw or a win from here 
I like the way we've lost wickets. It has taken the declaration out of Dhoni's hands and Zaheer scored runs at a good pace.
Where's that fellow gone who kept talking about a WHITE wash?
That's what australia thought in 08 when they set 400+...and they were wrong!
We've batted them out of this.
They're scoring runs at a good rate, but Ishant has bowled well.
Occasional bad ball, though.

mmmmm
yeah we are drawing this one or Saffers will win.
outtt!
Ashwin is bowling with good control(almost).
And we've got 3 good seamers at the other end. A wicket or two more today would be great.

What a freebie.Thank God Smith is gone.
He's a monstrous 4th innings player. One of the greats.
Hahaha..
What a bizarre dismissal.

Kallis chickened out BTW. Poor stuff

What's up with that? Faf had the pads on from about 15 overs left.
Ackerman thinks it is because Kallis bowled so many overs. Right.
I guess it is a combination of Kallis being in poor form and SA probably going for a draw now.
mmmm.. yeah that could be
They did say in commentary that he hadn't bowled 20 overs in an innings for about 3 years so it's probably the tiredness
Big day.
what do you guys think?
My worry is that SA have too many batsmen capable of putting on a partnership for a session. That'd take the game away.

Got him. 3 down.
Kallis in.
Kallis in.
Okay, that is a cracking decision.
With Du Plessis there, it looks like chances of SA win are becoming bleaker and bleaker. Shammi is bowling reall well BTW, I also expect Khan to do well with old ball. Ideally we would want at least one more wicket before the second new ball.
Yeah, Ii thought he was out.
I don't think SA are here for the win. Every wicket will slow down the run rate massively and 300 runs is a lot of runs to get on day 5, even if wickets don't fall.
The new ball is 30 overs away, we surely need at least 2 wickets before then.

I don't think our bowlers will think about the new ball, though. They are very good with the old ball. Shami and Zaheer, in particular.
One of those knuckle balls from Zaheer to Kallis, full and straight would be nice. He's expecting the full, straight ball now.
Bowling too many freebies to Kallis.
Big inside edge there.
Lulz
I've a bad feeling about this match. AB playing like a champ.
