I think we have to accept that a full strength Indian XI (even without Jaiswal) is just too strong not just for the Proteas but for any other team out there.
Hopefully the Proteas can even it up and make the series competitive but I don't see how anyone can compete with India.
Rooi, I hear you but I’m not ready to throw in the towel.
The funny thing is that no batsman dominated , if we say that they didn’t score 50
in this match I put the blame down to our bowlers.
Nortje our main striker failed to take a wicket.
India’s too good….vaguely familiar Rhonda. Didn’t you once claim India’s second team was too good for any other side, just before they crashed out the WC.
As for blaming the bowlers and not the batsmen….that’s actually funny. The wicket was hardly unplayable as Hardik showed. It was a woeful batting display.
Poor show both with the ball and bat from the Proteas in general.
Quintons batting performance is absolutely shocking.

Quinny's batting performance is only highlighted when he fails, there's never a mention when he's successful as with the century he scored in the second test. Would you care to nominate a player who can fulfill his role?
Same with Bavuma whose batting performance in Test cricket is pretty damn good. Then of course there was those gritty performances in two ODI's....led from the front he did. Lets be honest and give credit where it's due.
And OBTW it's good to sometimes remember that cricket is an 11 man game and that players are human and not robots.
That will be all for now...thank you kindly, you may order fries with that.
