Trevor Quirk talks about a wonderful display of spin against "one
of the most consistently great sides in One Day internationals"
Hansie Cronje, the losing captain comes up
We had a 3 month break, didnt play well
Under these conditions India is a good side
Quirk and Cronje make the usual excuse about being back from a 3
month break
We dont want to take anything away from Joshi and Jadeja's
captaincy
They were without four of their stars, the conditions suited them
Ajay Jadeja, the winning captain comes up and gets the 2000 US$
cheque
Incredible performance, one of the best days of cricket from India
I've seen, no wides and no balls
Joshi bowled fantastically, a captain couldnt have asked for more
We've been working on the fielding for the last 2 weeks or so,
hopefully it gives quick results
There's no better way than to start off with a win
The most predictable Man of the Match Award ever comes up
5 commentators from TWI award it to the obvious choice, Sunil
Bandacharya Joshi
I'm very thrilled, I was just hoping to turn the ball
The wicket was a 2 paced wicket, I just mixed up the deliveries
This performance is the best ever bowling performance against RSA
in ODIs
Thats it from CricInfo. Join us for the 3rd game featuring a
