Once again South African tailenders came to the rescue act after they were tottering at 163/6 against England in the third test....when can one see the Indian tailenders doing it like that? Is it because the bowlers wont practise with the bat in the nets or is it just because they are bowlers , they can throw away their wickets...and fine examples for throwing away their wickets are Praveen Kumar and Zaheer Khan as they are very well capable of batting...wht do you say guys?

Dont be so critical Krupesh. Remember Bhajji's back to back centuries. Zaheer Khan once held the world record for scoring 75 runs in test by a number 11. Even Praveen kumar has a top score of 40 in tests. Its just being one's day.

Hello guyz, a few year back Indian tailenders were also doing well. We all still remember the batting of Harbhajan Singh, Anil Kumble and Zaheer Khan in very critical situations. But now Indian bowlers are not able to contribute anything to the score board. I too this that bowlers must improve their batting skill a little more .

Yes it was really a great batting effort from the South African bowlers. At one stage they were 105 for 5. Then Duminy, Vernon Philander, Dale Steyn and Morne Morkel contributed some more runs to their team. It is really appreciable .
