Hardik Pandya confident but are India ready for Centurion

Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya were happy men after landing in Centurion for the second Test after a mixed first Test at Cape Town.India, who travelled to E'Twaun Moore Womens Jersey Centurion for the second Test match at the SuperSport Park, were handed a thorough schooling on the batting front in their 72-run defeat to go down 1-0 down in the three-match series.

But the Indian captain and all-rounder were excited and confident http://www.officialauthenticredskinsstore.com/womens_colt_mccoy_jersey ahead of the tough test that awaits in Centurion and Johannesburg.The Indian team, who were undone by sharp lateral movement and bouncers by the Proteas quartet, are set to face a different challenge at the SuperSport Park and Wanderers.
The pitches at Centurion and Johannesburg are expected to have more pace, bounce and the ball will hurry onto the batsman much faster than what it did in the first Test. The Indian batsmen have struggled on pitches like these before and after failing to chase down 208 to win the first Test, their confidence has certainly taken a hit.
Pandya however, has enough reasons to be confident after a counter-attacking 90 in the first innings that took India's score past 200 and put http://www.authenticcanadiensonline.com/Authentic-Doug-Harvey-Jersey them back into the game. But others struggled against the like of Vernon Philander, Kagiso Rabada and Morne Morkel.
Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara did show some fight but their grit and determination didn't last long while Kohli was undone by a 'rare' sharp in-swinger from Philander in the second innings while he was out chased a ball outside off to nick one back to the Quinton de Kock.
Shikhar Dhawan fell to short deliveries both times while the rest fell simply struggled to show some Glenn Hall Jersey resistance to pace.Ravichandran Ashwin and Bhuvneshwar Kumar did better than the batsmen and that is a story in itself for the Indian thinktank to learn from and take note of.
Talks are there of Ajinkya Rahane coming back to the side but who is to be dropped? Ashwin might get the axe but will India go without a single spinner? Unlikely. So it either has to be at the cost of a pacer and all of them have performed extremely well to bowl out the home side for 286 and 130 in both the innings respectively.
Tough decisions are to be taken and knowing Kohli the captain, he will. The team is capable enough to come back from a 1-0 deficit and they have done that before. The side has started practicing at full flow and are determined to come back into the series and prove the doubters wrong about their inability to play on seaming decks.
But irrespective of all that, will Kohli & Co. be ready in the three days they got to take on another pace barrage that is coming their way? Time will tell.
The second Test at the SuperSport Park in Centurion will start on January 13.
