82 without loss

Smiffy 35*

Alviro 46*

Kallis 200 catches .....2nd to Dravid with 210 !

Steyn 6-Fer !

India messed it up in the batting department. The pitch doesn't look that lively to have lost so many wickets so cheaply.

Not everything is lost yet though, Jadeja even managed to turn a few balls!! The first session tomorrow will be absolutely critical.

What was Rohit thinking  ??  :-\

               

What might have been  *sigh *

VJ gone on 97  at Durban , South africa  :o

                                 

Steyn is a class act and he proved it today by using the short ball well

I was kinda worried about Steyn being wicketless for so long, and he put those doubts to rest in quite a fashion!
He is a class act no doubt about that, and this kind of performance only reaffirms that.
