Been There Done That...

There was a sense of familiarity to the way India folded to South Africa today. It was numbing to watch but it was not entirely unexpected. There were far too many I-told-you-so moments...

Even so, let me tell you it is quite rare for a touring Indian team to be knocked out for under 150 in the first innings of a Series Opener.

Its happened only once before.

During India's second tour to England in 1936, the first Test at Lords saw India bowled out for 147. India came back strongly bowling England out to gain a first innings lead of 13.
