Watch cricket highlights: South Africa vs India Day 3 of the 2nd Test at Kolkata played on Feb 16, 2010

Scoreline: India (1st Inn) 643/6 declared VVS Laxman 143 no, MS Dhoni 132 no – Lead 347
South Africa (2nd Inn) 6/0

The Dale Steyn morning burst being the pinnacle of SA in the field today, Amit Mishra as the annoying nightwatchman soaking up a fair bit of it appeared to take the sting out of any gung-ho mood the South Africans may have walked out with today.

If the Steyn spell was Kevin Spacey in the shower in American Beauty, the rest of the day was Spacey’s rest of the day – downhill – VVS’ artistry and Dhoni who as a test batsman has stats and an average that better represent his significance in the team (as compared to in ODI cricket).

But SA are not buried yet – as forewarned on air in the one over that was bowled today, Smith is no pushover and neither is AB. With Petersen keen to impress, Amla however could pay obeisance to the law of averages. But you’ve got to believe that someone with the abilities of JP Duminy has nowhere else to go but up. This is turning out to be one heck of a test match

  4. looking forward to it-superb test match so far (a good crowd helps) -thanks for these excellent highlights.

    can people not refer to the score/ match situation in their comments: I’m trying to avoid the score so I can enjoy the highlights even more.

  5. India did good today.. it depends on their bowling now.. hopefully other bowlers will step up their game as well

  6. Holy ****
    here we were talking about a lead of 100-150 would be good…but wow
    U beauty Dhoni and Laxman…

  7. thushan amantha

    indian team good

  8. Pls post more videos, wanna watch more highlights

  9. Why is Dravid not chosen for the ODI team. We need a solid one down in that format.It is a disgrace that he is kept out.The Calcutta test is shaping beautifully for India. but it is too early to celebrate. The South Africnas have great depth in batting.Kudos for these highlights.

  10. India wer fabulous today. Hope they win this match………..

  11. hiiiiiiiiiii

  12. Man, India deserves number 1 spot. 100 for Sehwag, 100 for Tendulkar, 100 for Dhoni, and 100 for Lakshman. SouthAfrica trails by 347, India should win.

  13. moin shut-up

    WHERE is that MOIN GUY now???

    ru hiding behind your mother.?

  14. Thanks for the highlights. Great stuff! Its not everyday that you get to see 4 Indians hitting hundreds. What a pleasure to watch them smacking top class bowlers like Steyn and Morkel.

  15. jagadish Dhal

    Today is good.

  16. Admin sapo is very slow….not coming at alll :(

    • @Amit: I know – but the 4th clip uploaded to Dailymotion is still processing – something’s wrong with DM today

  17. Plz don’t post videos from Dailymotion. They take so much time to load. Plz post videos normal videos which you have been doing.
    Thanks

  18. sapo is slow .

  19. Ok Admin…we will wait

    Thanksssssssssssssssssssssssss

  20. v link is not working do something plz

  21. Really excellent batting display by India, but seems like the pitch has turned into a good batting one…. If India can pull a win here, undisputedly they are the No.1 Test team in the world presently but if SA can pull a draw here, undisputedly they should be crowned the world champions in test cricket for present. A lot depends on the Indian bowlers as the SA batsmen are very much capable of batting the 140 odd overs for the next two days…. Day-4 should be really interesting…Can Zak, Bhajji & co come to the party…lets see….(fingers crossed)…….

  22. Highlights are not working. stupid sapo.pt site never works!!!

  23. sapo sucks like ur dick ADMIN

  24. Sapo videos not working. Is there any alternate link.

  25. It’s pretty simple for India now. Just have to bowl ten good deliveries.
    That being said, Graeme Smith owns the trademark on the ‘captain’s knock’..ought to be wary of him.

  26. Sun Wulong

    @basu dev: so how many MPH can Sachin bowl at?

  27. hey ADMIN thanks for the youtube links, the sapo ones were really crap! Cheers!

  28. Sun Wulong

    Is that a record- six centurions in three days of cricket?

  29. admin,

    My first time posting. Thanks so much for putting these highlights up. You’ve done a fantastic job editing them together, even including the facial expressions of Steyn, the umpires, and catching the human drama. Are you editing directly from recordings of the match? That must take a lot of time and effort on your part. Thanks again!

    P.S. just wish I could see highlights 4-6– sapo doesn’t play at all :(

    • @uman: have added youtube links – have a look. Yeah edit from live recordings

  30. Thanks for the highlights…
    Great work as always!

    Keep it coming.

  31. the American Beauty reference in your assessment was brilliant and funny….love this site.. :)

  32. PART 4-6 NOT WORKING THANKS

  38. Sun Wulong

    Poor JP -he thought he would employ some Duminy-domination then Dhoni did him like a shrink doing moin. Crash! Bang! Come on Proteas, fight back against the Indemons!

  39. Hi, looks like the videos 4/5/6 are not working. can you check on them..

    INDIA # 1

  41. For some1 who supports neither SA nor Ind and just likes to watch good cricket, I now think that the match has actually become too 1-sided (and this time not becuase of RARE exceptional bowling) I was quite disappointed with SA’s standard of fielding in this match, really poor. Being a good fielder myself, I always enjoyed watching SA, NZ and Aus field. Excellent inning by Laxman (I still think Dhoni is a flat track bully). Laxman took advantage of his chance and battled through a tough period and then flowed, he showed the calm presence of mind to avoid the collapse that hit the Saffers on day 1. To me that highlights just why SA are not ahead of Ind in the rankings. By my observation SA are better balanced, more adaptable and more athletic than the Indian side but the Indians prove yet again that they have the ability to PUT THE OPPOSITION AWAY when they get even a sniff! Most teams would have given up when SA were 218/1 especially after the trashing they received in the previous test but Ind are incredible at using their resources well. For a team which relies so heavily on batting, they have showed why they have an excellent test record.

    Thanks for higlight oh ple god no rain

  43. slambamkabam

    bruaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

  45. Sam from Las Vegas

    South african fielding has become soo sloppy. They are looking at indian team in the same scoop as india look at Bangladeshi team. They are wrong. When south africa does not perform beyond their capabilities they deserve to loose. Serously, india by all means deserve the trophy of this match and I really hope south africa looses. So that they can look back and get their shit together. Bravo India! You deserve it!!!

  46. JP Duminy was the worst player of this match ,,, no doubt about that,,,

  47. Stupid piece of Darell Cullinun,,, when Afridi intentionally rub the ground while fielding he was banned for few games,,, So darell should be pleased bcoz dhoni has rubbed the ground for others team,,, hmmm

  48. sappo links plz

  49. SHIIVA KC

    DRAVID COME BACK SOON

  50. Hey Admin who did U want 2 win. India or SouthAfrica? Me for ind.

    • @sumitro: being Indian there was a certain tilt towards India but i was more curious to see how they’d play this test rather of the result
