Talk about battles within battles. There is one that will pan out eventually and it is the one between South Africa's fast bowlers and one batsman in particular.

Dale Steyn recalls the mauling of Virender Sehwag in Chennai two years ago. Now he believes South Africa are in a mental frame of mind that will not allow the Nawab of Najagarh to get away.
While Morne Morkel believes pace and bowling short could do the trick for South Africa against the Indian line up, Steyn is not entirely open if Sehwag remains their prime target but he believes south Africa have learnt from their mistakes and will focus on not giving an opportunity to the Indian opener to make them up.
But that is one enticing contest coming up when South Africa finish their first innings. It could be Sunday's spicy contest!
