00:04Here we go KJ
00:062 for 3 here boy
00:14Here we go KJ
00:20Here we go boy
00:37Indian captain now Virat Kohli on strike
00:40What a final
00:42Let's have a look at the numbers for Virat Kohli
00:45Number 99 test matches
00:47That is extraordinary
00:48What are the average?
00:50Over 50
00:517,850 runs
00:552700s
00:562750s
00:57Here's a sensational cricketer this man
00:59Yes, he hasn't got the runs you want of late
01:02But he's so good that that can happen
01:10Absolute champion
01:11Player for India
01:15At the moment
01:19He's got those trigger moves
01:20As a new player
01:26He goes about it
01:28Captain
01:28He
01:30And across
01:31Wrightson
01:44Getting that front leg
01:46Too far across
01:47He
01:49Beautifully done
01:51Didn't even bother to move
01:53Big stride
01:55Great timing
01:5815
01:5815
01:59Deliveries
01:59He's watched
02:00And watched
02:01And watched
02:03And then he gets his delivery
02:07Wide half early
02:08He's got out in the earlier games to that
02:13It's a great spot
02:17Who needed 4
02:19For those who aren't
02:22And
02:24Oh
02:24Oh
02:3043 against England
02:32It shows you how different the set up
02:34Oh
02:35Oh
02:37Oh
02:37Oh
02:38Oh
02:38Oh
02:40Oh
02:41Oh
02:41Oh
02:42Oh
02:42Oh
03:02And he loves to play shots
03:13and he has been flicked away and again some easy runs down on the leg side.
03:20Koli has been talked about a lot, Hash, and we spoke about it a little bit early on.
03:24Tough being under pressure when the runs aren't coming.
03:29And he does...
03:33He's found the gap and driven beautifully.
03:36Here's a fielder after it, and good effort, but the ball wins the race
03:42another boundary Coley goes up to 11 and I think South Africa mom these
03:49boundaries there's been maybe two or three of them that have been caressed
03:53through the covers but the nature of the movement calls for two that's good
04:02running
04:24call is for two and they should get it it's a good rotation of strike they're
04:31putting the book he's broken about what just relay it after this ball he said
04:46that he beautifully played nicely worked just the single to Koli
05:01since the break that's very good from indeedy very good and again look at the
05:12adjustment in the bat speed two slips in the gully right behind that moving
05:18nicely Koli really moving nicely in tune with the game miss that last test match
05:22but it looks really determined today is the trigger Sonny yes you can see it is
05:27more towards the off stump not outside the off some that toe was going outside the
05:32off stump when he was getting into trouble and see he's played the ball under his
05:36eyes
05:40defensively played soft bottom hand it's a short of a link ball he knows that not
05:46going to play the big shot now and he hasn't changed anything wide
05:53go for it go for it get waiting for something and if there's a
06:15goal
06:18it's an important time now this test match has test that door of its short identified
06:31that two men back roll his wrists beautifully fun of Dawson does extremely well before
06:37four deliveries for his 17, admirable patience but now recognizing that he's been at the
06:41crease for a while, it's nicely played, rolling his wrists in such a way that the ball is
06:47hit down, not up in...
07:03Perez...
07:08Ooz and Oz...
07:16Ooz and Oz...
07:19Watch!
07:22Subrahani...
07:23Ball!
07:26Ball!
07:27Ball!
07:29Ball!
07:33and he makes it short ball and Coley's got the first maximum of the game that
07:49was just awesome cricket KG Robada could have easily gone to a normal area
07:55got stumped but he opted for the bouncer and a powerful bouncer head height forcing
08:01rivera to make a decision otherwise you get pinned that's just the reality of it a top edge
08:08sailed into the stands a moral victory for kg and the proteas are still six four six more for India
08:22it's a thorough examination of Coley at the moment he's passing
08:46driven and driven beautifully always looks so good and he's driving his Coley
08:59picture perfect drive foot to the ball head behind the ball more importantly hands flowing through it
09:07cover drive test match cricket is a bit of it's going to the reason why he wants to bring that
09:29kind of
09:30shot up and the no ball is nicely done really just the simplest of movements into the ball dead straight
09:43back class hockey ensign just over pitching guy of Coley's class quality he's not going to miss out on
09:58that it's while in control beautiful execution of the straight drive
10:19you can't go on living on the edge
10:28getting to put extra effort and I'm going to go over the line through this innings the odd
10:37wow see that's when I say it's doing enough to keep the bowler interested you can see why one two
10:42nine four four interesting to watch Dean Elga here as he goes past cookies for a border he would be
10:50wanting to push his premier fast bowler for one more maybe two more but this over he's got a lead
10:58on
10:58that one and it's on the bounce riveting riveting this is some way in front of him a little bit
11:09of a purple
11:12oh it's make well yes get a run get to the non strikers in bone as well
11:30fine raced away for a boundary
11:35well played by Virat Kohli just hinting down the leg side he managed to get a little bit of better
11:43on it
11:44fine leg for four it's the type of let off that South Africans would not want it's the type of
11:51delivery
11:51that the basketball is praying for get onto my pads please get me off strike get some runs on the
11:57board
12:10nice and
12:20that's where
12:27keeps that out in fact turns it in a quick single over number 14 for him
12:33straight back at the ball the way he's playing
12:42down the leg side have they got him and they are not well they're through okay just go back
12:51go back
12:54okay just go back one frame
12:59and just freeze it with the balls next to the bat
13:03yeah just freeze it there there's a clear gap between the bat and ball just roll that through
13:11just keep rolling that through roll that through
13:15yeah it's touch the five bed as it's gone by Adrian you can stay with the original decision of not
13:21out
13:27stand by your on-screen signal now
13:33not out is the decision
13:37and Virat Kohli's also just let him know that it hit the thigh pad as well
13:43walking right amongst them having a bit of a chat with Dean Elga
13:48yeah
13:49oh
13:49oh
13:51oh
13:51oh
13:52oh
13:55arena and
13:59totally focus
14:01totally end up with five
14:10we're at Coley on strike key to the game there you go too straight as if on cue
14:24there's been a real determination about his game with regards to leaving as you mentioned
14:29mark I mean if you have a look at his he's accumulate 44 runs it's a fantastic work through
14:34midwick it of 142 deliveries I think of Pujaro who accumulated 43 of 77 delivery so it's almost
14:45half as many deliveries that Pujaro is their roles and their character over the years would
14:51suggest it would be in the other way around and Coley would have been the one who would
14:54be scoring quicker but he hasn't had a big score for a while definitely get that sense that I
15:06understand that not everybody gets their rhythm to in power said that they'll be made up this year
15:15maybe early July exact day but it's over it 46
15:51okay okay okay yeah that was rubata with over the years oh just talking about rubata's fielding
16:02isn't that typical and that'll make it to the boundary rope I'm afraid even with his pace
16:10very good 50 from Virat Kohli a very resilient and determined 50 Sean Pollock was saying he's dialed in
16:17and that's exactly right as if he knows that this first innings for India may well determine the outcome
16:25of the match he's given nothing to South Africa and when it has been over pitched he's driven it with
16:32all
16:32his usual panache driven beautifully four runs a wonderful outfield here and good value for your shots
17:03yes shot guy with class throughout Coley and since looking your touch fuller over pizzas wow look at
17:13that exquisite I do feel that conditions it's up and then give Asher and the benefit of the doubt
17:25me is just oh cries of catch it and that blew quickly but boomers after it the ball will win
17:34the race to the
17:35boundary Coley's up to 60 dry smile from Maharaj
17:55this is that one comes to beginning that calling up beautifully driven he's been driving beautifully
18:08here at Newlands today as Virat Kohli every now and again the batter the bowlers think they're on top
18:15and he's just been able to absorb the pressure and then shots like these yeah just a change of angle
18:22coming straight back into him Virat Kohli and easy straight mark shot while he gets himself into a
18:30wonderful position driving again his goalie placement timing just beautiful to watch he's eating some
18:41candy no doubt about that Marco Jansen has pitched up the two balls how fully type of blend but he's
18:51still
18:51gonna lean over it this is he's looking in macular touch at the moment to be very ominous for the
18:57Proteus team it's getting a big straight forward but more important do you feel that this will be an
19:11important partnership for India we saw with the Jara and Coley I'm here
19:43169 call for two good fielding there by Marco Jansen alert to the call of two
20:05two men back the beautiful control using it down the fine leg just for one hello Sean it did be
20:13nothing there for their runs Robata charging in cries of catcher thick outside edge and it's going
20:21to run away for a boundary that's going to get him closer 77 now Cody well that's what he looked
20:28to do
20:29as well now he looked to play at deliveries which are slightly wider pitched up but slightly wider
20:35because he knows there is no third man yes look at that he's looked to play at something that is
20:39slightly wider well away from that fielder at gully so no risk whatsoever no danger but has made him a
20:53lot more certain with short two men back hit it nicely in front of square just the one night
21:03well having seen the one on now Johnson I should say well let want to look at telly
21:23is that extra bounce used around the corner for a single Robata there's this little challenge of
21:30energy those wide ones a little bit of attempted but now he's in full control of that it's the man
21:37who's only about 30 meters off the fence 30 yards off the fence but boom up no run as long
21:44as the ball is
21:46going straight to the field it's going to be all right look this is what he's doing trying to throw
21:50the bowler off if the ball goes five seven yards on either side of that field it's going to be
21:57a
21:57boundary because when the ball goes off the middle of the bat got him got a neck there it is
22:07that is
22:07the huge record Robata sensational stuff from Robata geez been terrific today it was terrific in the
22:13second thing of the wonders it's the end of a fine knot but South Africa will be so happy with
22:18that
22:18dismissal surprise surprise there will be a check of the front foot just to make sure but I think the
22:25key is the change of game plan you're hazy I think with Kohli's been so watchful and got himself into
22:31such
22:31strong positions because he's he stood on the crease and hasn't planted that front foot across
22:36but because he is now moving around the crease means his momentum is hanging towards the offside
22:41and he's also trying to get back on ball pushes at that one well outside the offstand finds the edge
22:46and if there's anyone who's been rewarded or deserving of the wicked over at Kohli it's been
22:52cagey ribald he's been simply superb he's come past the outside edge on a couple of occasions
22:57but credit must go to Kohli he's been superb he's played well he's really showed application it gets
23:03out for 79 211 for nine but you got to be impressed by that Sonny very very impressed the discipline
23:13is
23:13shown the intent later on terrific batting this is a very fine innings something that he should be proud
23:21of 211 for nine
