December 7th-my birthday, back in 10th grade. After school, I flipped on Aaj Tak, as Star Sports wasn’t an option. The channel flashed cricket scores in its headlines: Faf du Plessis and AB de Villiers were rock solid at the crease, with AB looking invincible. Convinced the match was destined for a draw, I decided to head out for a haircut. At the salon, the barber had a crackling radio playing the live commentary. Suddenly, the commentator’s voice rose with excitement-"Umesh Yadav strikes! AB de Villiers is out!" Hearing those words over the radio sent a surge of joy through me. It wasn’t just a dismissal-it felt like an unexpected birthday present, a moment etched forever in my memory.
@@pritam436do you even know how test cricket used to be back then there was no shit like aggressive test cricket, bazzball and India used to play spin well
well, i was in my second year college at 19 years, i am from chennai and at that time due to rains it was flooded in chennai, i remember following this match very closely though semester exams were happening, it was a thriller with abd amla trying their best to draw
That was the same year when the man who scored 100 in just 31 balls... AB Devilliers 🔥 . He can play like Sehwag,Afridi and also like Dravid . What a legend of the game 😍
Once upon a time we had a strong middle order batsman who always rescue Team India after top order collapse.... thats why we didn't lose home series in 12 years.......Similar situation we got in different home series as early top order collapse that we saw in recent Ind vs Nz test series but difference is that no strong middle order test batsman was there to save you from collapse but here in this test Rahane stood strong with centuries in both innings took India home
9 years...seems like life is going quick...😂💥...I still remember I was in 8th standard..Proteas won Odi,t20 series and we won test series...golden days👌
I still remembered this match i ,was in 10th standard and i always watched match when i came from School and i still remember the inning played by Rahane 💯 in both inninge is fabulous bat no 5 and Inning played by Amla , Devillers,And ,duplesis who wanted draw the match and played 200+ balls by amla and almost 300 ball played by Devilliers and who believe that this is inning also played by devilliers that played a beautiful as per situation of match .. 16:36 Amazing Flying Catch by Saha.❤❤❤❤❤
@@Justkiddingbutuknowthen how ind won consecutive 18 test series over 12 yrs with only 3-4 matches loss?? Nz aren't really that good bcz sl humiliated them very easily The fact is current ind test team is shit , a lazy uninspiring captain, vk completely out of test form , a politician turned coach
It was not a miracle, our middle order was inexperienced just that. Also bad choice of selection to not even give a game to jurel who almost saved india losing one match to England. Sarfaraz and gill looks more IPL players
@@JustkiddingbutuknowBS, India is going through transition, if they are such a beast why haven't they dominated like India in Australia in last 10 years

@@prasithoudomvilay8454they played him at 6 because to prevent him from new ball in India ball won't do anything.when he bats at 6 Ball would be softer and won't do much

Wat a wonderful player ABD is , after brian lara we got to see the stylish technical player who can adapt to any conditions given . any wer any time anyhow he will do it
Rather than India playing well, it's south africa who were very very horrible. They don't have a single player who can lay bat on ball against spin. Horrible horrible players of spin bowling. They looked like idiots and it's so frustrating to see them bat as a neutral fan.
@rishavraj6973 Absolutely they are .. Check devilliers numbers against spin in India and Amla's too. Don't go by the number of deliveries they played. It's absolutely pathetic to be so defensive and letting Indian lower order play the way even after taking all top 5 wickets for less. South Africa in the next 1000 years can never win in India with this horrendous display of cricket
@@rishavraj6973 Indian top order were always vulnerable against spin in rank turners. Just that Ashwin and Jadeja saved their team multiple times with the bowling. And the lower order (again Ash and jaddu in batting) saved them from getting bowled on a low score saving plenty of test matches from clutches. If these Indian batsmen play against Ash and jaddu on Indian tracks, they won't even average 20.

Rahane getting hundreds in a very difficult indian pitch! He got century at no.5 and no.6 batting positions in the same match
He was dropped so many times😂
Abdevilliers scored 43(297) in test and 119(61) in odi on the same tour. His adaptability is unreal
That's why he is Mr 360°
SA - 143 (143.1 Overs) ... Hashim Amla 25 (244) and AB de Villiers 43 (297) ...One of the spectaculars of Test Cricket !!!
Bhuvama also 34(116)
That was insane patience level and survival

Rahane centuries on a broken pitch. What a cricketer.
Against a really strong sa attack aswell. Probably the best he’s batted in a match
lol he was dropped so many times
Toh kya hua bhikaristan@@rishimartin4096

There won't be a better captain than Virat Kohli in White Jersey !

Rise of modern India in test cricket 🏏 under Kohli Shastri era.
Amla and ABD played single day on defence on such pitch
Reason why AB De Villiers can't be compared with anyone
Because he is alien 😂
Rohit Sharma was a absolute failure in Test for many years. Yet he got chances here and there.Why??
You know Ambani and family 🫠
Because he scored more runs for India since WTC cycle started and there is not ambani factor there too

no rank Turner pitch in INDIA
Miss those times
Rahane is Way moreee underrated player. He's got talen5ltand patience to be test captain and skill to be perfect middle order batsman.
No. Great batsman when on song but wildly inconsistent. He was lucky to play 85 test matches for india with just an average of 38

kohli cant play spin in 2015 as well, what a shame.
Are you blind ? He made 44 and 88. In the first innings just look at the dismissal, unlucky. In the second innings he got out to a pacer 😂.
Fool !
When india played 4 match test series against South Africa??
Did I just see Pujara hitting a six !!
South Africa 143/10(all out )in 143.1 overs.
100 overs batting is impossible for 2024 test team.😂
No one is appreciating jadeja
i watched this live on the fourth day, thinking abd would put on a show...well.
Well how do sa keep patience in that match!! Run rate of 0.98😂
