A comfortable host, a nervy visitor

India may have given South Africa the greatest curve ball of their one-off Test match, which begins here on Friday, even before a ball is bowled. This is a city of gracious hosts who would stop at nothing to make their guests feel at ease.

With its spin potency in the red-ball encounter, the MA Chidambaram Stadium's red soil surface—which for a significant portion of matchday eve appeared to be a dust bowl—will present the Proteas with their toughest test.
