It is interesting to see the ball dominating the bat in the test series in South Africa at this time.
If you can’t take 20 Wickets, you can’t win the test match and it’s a Bowlers who have dictated the right term through the series.
The total highs posted so far in the series have been 327 (India’s first round in the first test in Centurion).
It’s been very entertaining to watch the contest between bats and balls.
In that context, Virat Kohli 79 in the first round of India in Newlands was as good as a century.
It’s no secret that batting has been difficult and Indian captain shows what the miracle of the right test match application techniques can work.
With a series level 1-1, the third test that is currently will determine who wins the series.
Everyone knows that the results are almost close.
The question is which team will have the last laugh? Pujara and Kohli (AFP photo) with India when batting in their second round one thing Indian cricket fans will be happy to know is what kind of total will be good for India to send in Newlands to put pressure on Proteas.
With so much time left in the match, India will look for flat bats out until they all come out, while of course given the fact that they will need a time for the South African bowl out in their second round from the course.
The partnership will be the key.
Visitors are unable to lose Wickets in many.
The middle order of India will have to increase the big time so that it can support their brilliant speed batteries and give them enough pillows for bowls out of Proteas.
Let’s see what the total height has historically been chased in Newlands in cricket tests for years.
Which will give us a rough picture of what a good total might be able to Virat Kohli and colleagues.
to send against the host.
(Reuters Photo) A look of five successful chasing was carried out the highest test at our Cape Town event – The success of the Run list pursue the highest in Newlands as far as Australia 334-6 vs South Africa in 2001-02 series.
Aussies pursued 331 to win and reach the target in 79.1 overs.
But it was 20 years ago.
Recently, the Proteas scored 236-2 against the Aussies in a play test in 2011-12 series.
The target was 236 and the host reached 50.2 overs to register 8 net victory.
The third score in this list is South Africa 211-5 vs India in a play test in 2006-07 series.
211 is the target and proteas must be in 64.1 overs to wrap the 5 goal victory.
The fourth total in this list is 2007-8 when South Africa defeated West Indies with 7 Wickets.
It was a low target of 185 and Proteas had to be in 35.2 overs, losing 3 wickets in the process.
The fifth and newest included in this Top 5 list from 2012-13 South Africa vs Pakistan series.
Pakistan arranged South Africa Target 182 and Proteas pursuing down in the fourth round, lost 6 wickets in the process at 43.1 overs.
So, four of the top 5 chases of less than 300 and two less than 200.
The fact that India will last bowling must work in more favorite visitors, which of course they can set a suitable target.
The Proteas has traditionally been able to pursue well in Newlands will be on the list above, but the South African team currently does not have people like Graeme Smith, Jacques Kallis, Hashim Amla, Ab de Villiers, Faf du Plessis, Mark Boucher, Quinton de Kock etc.
Like Dean Elgar and Kegan Petersen and Toba Bavuma have to dig deep if they pursue something upwards of 250.
The Indian team will certainly try and throw everything, including kitchen sinks, to try and set the north target of 300.
And for They must be put into a better batting performance a lot than we see in the first round in Newlands against people like Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi, Duanne Olivier and Marco Jansen.
After all, a historic series wins and the opportunity to conquer ‘deadline’ is on the phone.
