Re: 2nd Test: South Africa v India at Durban - Kyle - 12-28-2013
Steyn - going wicketless and coming back ROARING when skeptics started to peep their heads out. What a guy, undoubtedly the greatest SA pacer for me, hands down. And one of the ATG, indeed.
Re: 2nd Test: South Africa v India at Durban - Kyle - 12-28-2013
Although would like to see how SA play today. It's still 250+ runs on board for them to erase and they have to put in a solid lead. Have no idea, should be interesting.
Jadeja gettng some turn, but SA played him OK. Smith looked totally out of sorts though.
AB de Villiers says they are looking at a 100-run lead tomorrow - chairman - 12-28-2013
AB de Villiers says they are looking at a 100-run lead tomorrow and he thinks the guys in the dressing room have the character to do it. The wicket was doing a bit and they have to bat last, when the pitch would be at its most testing, and they are looking for as many as they can get tomorrow. He says he doesn't like fifties, wanted to turn that to a hundred but got a goodie from Jadeja. He's bowled well, AB concedes, troubling Alviro Petersen and Jacques Kallis as well with balls turned off straight. He hoped Kallis would go big tomorrow and said he was one of those right-handers who can play the cover drive as elegantly as a left-hander. It's all about execution and the pitch was a touch slow and it's a bit of work timing the ball well and getting boundaries. He says he has many fond memories batting with Kallis, He scored his first Test hundred with him and was there for both of Kallis' double centuries. He confesses his career would not be as it was without Kallis' advice over the years and hopes he and the other guys do well and help South Africa take the series 1-0

WTF @ weather. Had this not been for weather, this could've been a cracker. Now with two days remaining, IDK.
Kallis played way too slow IMO. Which is what he does. A lot. It's a bit frustrating.
That said, he did stall the collapse, and it's his last match.
Jadeja bowled well.

Eight wickets still in hand, they're still not in the danger zone.
But SA are out of danger - so expecting cracker of a game.
