Posted: Sun Dec 06, 2015 12:04 pmWell, that was some gritty batting by South Africa. 72 runs off 72 overs, not sure I've seen anything like that for quite some time.

It's never happened before
This amla/devilliers partnership is the slowest of any that has faced over 175 balls

Posted: Sun Dec 06, 2015 3:47 pmTremendous application shown by Amla in particular. 
Didn't think him and ABD who score quickly in ODI format could bat at so less SR even in test.

Posted: Sun Dec 06, 2015 6:01 pmSA have a real chance of drawing this test. Still 90 overs to go, so will require tremendous application and grit. These 2 and Faf have that. Would be a great way to sign off for SA if they do it.
For India, they need a couple of wickets so they can expose the inexperience / tail of SA. If these 3 can take SA till tea, they will leave India a bit deflated. India should target these 3 wickets before tea to win this.

Posted: Mon Dec 07, 2015 9:46 amFive down at tea, and the draw looks favourite.

Posted: Mon Dec 07, 2015 10:11 amShouldn't be any overtime, so have SA just got two hours to last, against knackered bowlers.
But if ABDV goes India could knock the tail over.

Re: SA tour of India, Sept 29-Dec 7
