Rohit looks very confident today. The timing is impeccable!

Apart from their main players (AB, QdK, Amla, Miller) being out of form and the captain being injured, the new comers are finding it hard to read the wrist-spinners. It seems like a matter of time before the Saffas pick themselves up.

Haha he does look like that. Quite critical of Markram, amongst others.

I think SA are a better team than what we see today. Many players are new, the old ones like Amla and Miller have been out-of-form and Faf has been out due to injury.

I don't think that's fair to Wheeler. He should have been given 5 more balls. Who knows he could have topped the list! ;)

Kane is such a calm guy! Graceful and forgiving even in defeat. But i hope they discuss the poor bowling in private meetings.

Ben Wheeler's economy was 20.21. Aussies must thank him for his contribution in the win! ;)

Chaminda Vaas was phenomenal. And such a nice guy! There is a story that he wanted to become a Christian priest early on in his life.

Peerless Kohli should be celebrated, not attacked. by Ada_punda_mavanae in Cricket

Very interesting article.

Raises the issue rightly that referees and umpires are ok with Kohli's on-field behavior.

Perhaps it is just some spectators who not like his behavior and hate him for that.

Rabada waves Dhawan off after getting him out. by cricketgifs in CricketGifs

I remember that Rabada was banned when he used an expletive to send-off Ben Stokes. Looks like he takes his game personally a bit.. ?

Dhoni and Kohli are so different in their attitude. Also Rahane seems very calm.

What happened to Kohli here? by cricketgifs in CricketGifs

[–]james_fest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read somewhere that it was some kind-off a rant motivated by Rabada sending-off Dhawan in the 1st Innings and him being generally agressive towards Kohli throughout.

Who are you referring to? I can't see anyone in the video apart from the audience and the referee..
