And they did, India rolled for 131 and lose by an innings and 32 runs. Absolutely love to see that and even with there being a second test match to be played yet again they will go home without a series win South Africa.

South Africa quicks were very good. Nandre Burger looked alright in his first test.

The South Africans bowlers have always been solid. With Rabada, Jansen, Notre when there as well, they are pretty solid but that batting is a huge issue.

Geez that Saffer test squad going to NZ is like a bunch of pub cricketers going on a cricket trip.
The skipper is a bloke yet to make his debut and the most experienced bloke is some dud with 15 caps and the rest of the squad is just filled with part timers.
Massive slap in the face for test cricket

What a mess the South Africans have got themselves into. Essentially mandating players stay to play its own T20 tournament (which has failed previously and is hardly a world beater) in preference of Tests shows how faarked cricket administration of some countries has become.

This is the continuation of Cricket South Africa’s attempts to mimic Australia’s summer schedule, including a Boxing Day Test, except they have no idea how to schedule it around their ICC commitments. It also suggests that no-one outside of South Africa really cares about their domestic priorities at this stage, as they don’t have the clout of Australia to influence the ICC schedule.
