Ritesh: Very wrong to leave out Mukesh whose swing bowling could've been a great asset in this test match! Shardul and Prasidh are looking very ordinary

P V Santosh: What is with players in their last series? First Warner , now Elgar. Great knocks.

KL Rahul's overseas record, a dream for several batters: Zaheer Khan

Ashvarya: Rohit surely missed a trick by not starting the session with any combo of Bumrah, Siraj and Ashwin. Thakur and Prasidh released quite a bit of pressure and suddenly the pitch seemed to ease out even when Boom and Siraj are bowling currently.

Answered: Did Rohit, Jaiswal & Gill's aggressive approach backfire for India?

Pk: Despite all his credentials in domestic cricket and his rich vein of form in white ball cricket, Gill has not justified his potential yet in Test format.

Abhi: This is regular occurrence for India in recent past particularly in SENA countries to skittle out 4-5 wickets with almost nothing on board and lower order to bail them out
