Amazing performance from the Saffers to beat India 2-1 from 1-0 down, not sure many saw that coming!!!!

Can't say I did - thought SA would be a little toothless without Nortje and also lack the necessary runs. Great series though and what a player Jansen looks like becoming

Could be a fun morning session in SA tomorrow now, they looked almost home and dry until India got Elgar with a strangle down the leg side last ball tonight.

Still the Saffers to lose, albeit they do have previous............
Over the line with ease! 2-1 series win and we have Petersen and Jansen with good experience from this.

Kohli steps down as Indian Test captain … maybe this will free him up as a batsman.

Smith also (reluctantly forced) gave up captaincy.

Will Root go down the same route?

rather that than keep saying hes not fit for the job without a clue who to replace him with Homie. Last week you were giving it to a guy who hadnt made his test debut............

is it Root’s job to find a replacement or that of the coach & selectors.

Feels like we let them score 40-50 more than they should have. Good start, shame to lose Burns just before Tea, big evening/morning coming up.
