Those were against england and australia ,sides who genereally are suited to the SA tracks.
There is a reason india only has one test win ever in SA.
But we will see come 16 December.
Conveniently forgetting the fact that SA lost tests to India, West Indies and Pakistan during their last series in SA as well. May not have lost the series but they did lose test matches. They have been losing home tests far too often in my opinion.
Since 2006/7, they lost the first test in 2006/7 to India at Joburg, then lost a test to Pakistan at Centurion, if I`m not wrong. In the immediate next series, they even lost to the West Indies at home. Then the losses against Aus and England as well in home tests.
That is`nt an invincible home record by any means.

Perth 08 turned out to be a flatish track though. It wasn't anywhere near as bouncy as AUS thought going into that match.
I don`t buy that argument. Also, how does that explain Tait/Johnson/Lee/Clark being outbowled by RP.Singh/Ishant Sharma/Irfan Pathan and Kumble eventhough you claim it was flattish and India batted first as well. India got bowled out for a low 300ish total and Australia still gave away a first innings lead of 100+ on what you claim a flattish track. We batted first on what should have been the pitch at its freshest,
