Cape Town: South Africa were all out for 130 in their second innings at stroke of lunch on day four of the first Test against India. One has to praise Kohli for the way he led today. Every move of his paid off and his constant chatter, never-ending energy and enthusiasm rubbed off on his team. Catches were taken and the bowling was first-class. Now up to the batsman to do their work to achieve what looked like an improbable task when India were 92/7 in the first innings and well behind the game. Chasing small totals can always be tricky. Remember Barbados 1997? A game the great Sachin Tendulkar rates as one of his most disappointing matches in his career.
