Sehwag and Amla top, Duminy flops

Marks out of ten for the Test series between South Africa and India that was drawn 1-1

19-Feb-2010•Sidharth Monga

The last man standing

Hashim Amla was the last South African standing after his vigil lasted a minute short of 500, but he was not playing for time and grinding it out. Instead, it is his bloody-mindedness, an antithesis to the fast-paced approach of the Twenty20 age

Grand theatre lights up Indian victory

India's bowlers found their straps in an unrivalled atmosphere at the Eden Gardens to prevail in a thrilling encounter

A perfect fit at No. 5

VVS Laxman's style of forcing the opposition to retreat is perhaps not as in your face as MS Dhoni's, but it's as effective

A meeting of generations

Despite cricket's following increasing manifold since Sachin Tendulkar made his debut, Virender Sehwag remains the only one of the generation that watched him avidly to mature into a truly world-class batsman

Fond memories for Laxman and Harbhajan

Harris moves from facilitator to lead artist

The man who has been a facilitator to the fast bowlers today stepped up and made himself count

No crumbs of comfort for India

The roots of this debacle go back to some frankly ludicrous selection. Having made such a pig's ear of picking the 15, the selectors deserve every bit of criticism that will come their way over the coming days

How Harris choked India

Paul Harris' outside-leg-stump line was perfect in the context of the game, as none of the Indian batsmen figured out how to score runs against him

India get a taste of the future

A weak batting line-up was brutally exposed by a devastating spell of fast bowling

Dale Steyn has taken 13 five-fors in 37 Tests, a rate matches by very few bowlers over the last 40 years

A perfect selection storm

Minor selection issues converge to become major headache for India

Badri battles the nerves and nicks

A day before his expected India Test debut, S Badrinath was put through his paces at the nets

The best overseas team in India

South Africa have a 4-4 win-loss record in India, and the key has been their ability to largely keep the Indian batting line-up in check

05-Feb-2010•S Rajesh

An understated rivalry

An intriguing contest has built up between India and South Africa, with the intensity found on the field of play rather than in the stands

05-Feb-2010•Dileep Premachandran

Who will conquer Virender Sehwag?

South Africa's bowlers are fully aware of the damage this man can inflict if he gets going

Morne makes his mark

The younger Morkel brother is now more confident of his role in the team and can't wait to team up with Dale Steyn against India
