a strange question...I mean let's look at the series at whole, the first two tests were played on flat pitches...all the bowlers suffered and it was a dull draw.\n\nthe third test was simply amazing with pathan's hat trick starting the first over...to come back from there and to win so comprehensively just resurrects the game to that of an epic...\n\nso yes, sad India lost, but the game is made more memorable by such feats...\n\nIndia can beat Pakistan next time.

CERTAINLY INDIA WILL DO BETTER THAN ODI SERIES.\n\nI HOPE INDIA WILL WIN ATLEAST ONE TEST.\n\nANYHOW, WINDIES WILL DOMINATE THE TEST SERIES TOO.

Brilliant!! I think it was worth a five point deficit for the question just to rub all those doubter's noses in it. Well won, thoroughly deserved and well predicted. 10-0, 1-0.... who gives a toss ?! - It was a VICTORY

i think it definitely was a fighting match ... and had indian tail wagged a bit longer and scored 20 more runs the result would have been the opposite! \nbut this match showcases that its is going to be an exciting series !\njai hind !

IM SAYING THIS FROM MY HEART WHICH WOUNDED BY THAT INCIDENT.\n\nSRI NATH AND RAJU WERE THE BATSMEN.\n3 RUNS TO WIN IN LAST BALL.\nSRI NATH HIT A HUGE ONE AND THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE A 6.\nBUT PETER TAYLOR TRIED TO CATCH THAT AND DROPPED IN SIDE BOUNDARY.\nTHE 2 BATSMEN REALIZED THAT WAS NOT A 6, AND STARTED TO RUN DESPERATELY.\nPETER TAYLOR FUMBLED, AND MANAGED TO PICK THE BALL.\nBOTH BATSMEN COMPLEATED I RUN.\nTAYLOR THROWED THE BALL AND ONE GUY WHO GATHERED  AND SMASHED THE STUMPS BEFORE RAJU COMPLEATE THE 2ND.\n\nTWO FACTORS TO ANALYSE THAT DEFEAT.\nIF SRINATH HIT AND RAN ATONCE, WE COULD TIE THE MATCH.\nIF RAVI SHASTRY NOT CONSUMED 60 BALLS TO TOOK HIS FIRST SIX RUNS, WE MIGHT WON THE MATCH.\n\nTHATS THE FIRST AND STRONG THING MADE ME SUSPECT ABOUT THE ABILITY OF INDIANS AND FIXING OF MATCHES.\n\nYOU MAY NOT AWARD 10 POINTS TO ME.\nBUT..\nYOU'VE GIVEN A CHANCE TO RELAX LITTLE BIT MYSELF.\nTHANK YOU.

I believe blame of this thumping defeat should go to Chappel; just because his principle is awfull and much self-centered politician like. He is experimenting with batting order for long and this time it is total failure. His experiment with batsmen count or bowler count in the final team is also horrible. He is making the team more pathetic day by day by making everybody dependent. The more often changes what he is making should stop otherwise India is heading for a really gloomy future.

Yeah! Totally it dawned on me today and I was so depressed lol! Especially as before the World Cup I wasnt even interested in football but after seeing a few matches i was totally hooked. It will be missed. I probably wont be bored but i will miss it.\n\n(Totally irrelevant but It was a shame Czech Republic went out so early :'( ) \n\nGo England =D

I think that India had a very good chance, but then you never know. I hope South Africa wins, only because I am from there, but really it is like tossing a coin. I guess we will see.

It is a blessing in disguise for Saurav. It has now been proved that the players like Jaffer, Kaif, Mongia & Raina are good for nothing and are far below the level of Saurav. He would now have a go in the Test Series and would prove his mettle. The coach and the selectors would now come to know.\n\nAfterall it was a disgusting selection with the omission of Laxman, Ganguly and Gambhir.
