I agree. Yuvraj would have been my choice over Jadeja, but I think the selectors went for a bowling all rounder in Jadeja. I am expecting him to be replaced with Binny in the next game unless he shows a miracle with the ball today.
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
What India is badly missing is runs by the late-middle order. They would be even stronger with Yuvraj in the team. Some Indians I know accuse Dhoni and Srinivasan of favouring CSK players like Jadeja. SA recovered from 80 odd for 4 against Zimbabwe because they bat deep (I know Miller is not going to score a hundred every time). Australia bat deep too. India has a fine top and middle order but a thin late middle order and tail. Those 20-25 runs that they did not make towards the end could still cost them the game. This looks a good batting surface
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
yeah but it is a fixable problem…when your top order is in trouble like ours , it is impossible to fix.
Yuraj will come back for sure after regaining form in domestic cricket. dhoni can and shd play for few more years…ashwin averages 35 at no 8
rohit, dhawan, kohli, rihanay, raina, yuraj, dhoni, ashiwn…india is all set for next 5 years as most of them are young players…even dhoni is only 33 i think.

It is good that he has now dyed his hair…was looking older than his age with those grey sideburns
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
uncle jee way too many indians on this planet…i mean it is getting ridiculous.. there are 80K people at MCG and 70K are indians…
alll free streams are choked because every indian is trying to see WC free…and i guess over a billion are trying to watch the game across the globe
this needs to be fixed… any suggestion?
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
Interesting stat - 300 has never been successfully chased at MCG. So if SA are able to pull it off, that will be a record in itself.
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
South africans will win this match, easily. They have strong batting line up and indians do nt have any extra ordinary bowler. Pakistani Players should watch this match closely, thori sharam ayee
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
It’s only some of those in North America who are trying to watch it free. Most other places, it’s free on TV.

De Kock out !!! Shami strikes…
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
3.3
Mohammed Shami to de Kock, OUT, gone! That’s the first time de Kock hasn’t scored a century against India. It’s a bit fuller but nowhere near full enough to drive. Goes hard at it and scoops a low catch to Kohli, tumbling forward from mid-off
**Q de Kock c Kohli b Mohammed Shami 7 (15b 1x4 0x6) SR: 46.66
****India on the road to success…!!! 
it wasn’t a RUN OUT like India’s fiirst wicket…so, SA, watch OUT!

Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
India Strikes…

Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015

Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015

Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
Swami strikes
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
Can’t watch India bowl. Gnight
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
What’s with the defensive field ? Not having a slip cost us Amla’s wicket [emoji16]
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
what are the odds of India winning the game tonight when Sachin Tendulkar is in the audience? 
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
Right now I would give India a slight edge. Chasing 308 will not be easy.
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
i would say 60-40 in favor of India.
Amla just survived a run out chance.
Re: India vs. South Africa @ Melbourne Feb 22, 2015
Amla out !!!
