ON THE AGNEEPATH TO AUSTRALIA.
As the name suggests, the path to take some breath in Australia too is a road set on fire. India showed no armour to the most destructive Australians,
We can put that like,
MURDERED AT MELBOURNE
SURRENDERED AT SYDNEY
PULVERISED AT PERTH
ASSAULTED AT ADELAIDE
I would rather quote this down under white wash is more arrogant than the English summer, because in England despite every Indian batsman looked like a cow on a ice sheet, THE WALL(Rahul dravid)stood tall and unmoved, scoring centuries after the other, but here even the wall’s rock solid defence is shaken, the wall getting castled almost every time he enters the crease. People call it a technical failure, experts claim with this kind of technique he amassed huge amount of runs, but I would quote this as , lack of footwork has seen his defences get through, may be due to the age factor his foot cannot move as his mind wishes to...!!!!!

I, infact the whole cricketing world want him to get that out of him
and start playing the way we all seen him for more than 2 decades.
In case of laxman, once quoted to be the thorn of the Australian crown his making too much of harm to his reputation, he completely looked out of sorts. Its time to say a good bye to the Hyderabad lad, who looks too awkward in fielding department too.
Shewag, the stand-in captain and the regular captain mahi doesn’t make much promise with the bat. Now the captaining ability of dhoni is criticized heavily, as per the news paper quotes dhoni is all set to give the test duties to shewag(Even he doesn’t show anything special). He seems to be fighting for his place in the test team .
The only positive in the series was that the amount of maturity shown by young kohli scoring the lone century for india in the series. He really showed his seniors the right approach to play on Australia. The partnership between him and saha was really torturing the Australian bowling, for a moment or two they were completely listless, but to india’s agony saha was castled by harris in the last over of the session, else I feel the match would have resulted a little longer.
This partnership shows BCCI every reason to believe in young players and start playing them, not only as substitutes but also in the playing 11. Its really heartening to see Rohit Sharma warming the bench for the complete series despite heroics in the recently concluded series(WI), promising ajinkya rahane too was made to warm benches.
More sooner Ishant needs to learn the art of picking wickets.
I would go rather hard at Duncan Fletcher, he need to prove his mettle very soon. Else I don’t feel BCCI is still going to have trust on him.
Its proving time India….!!!!
Prove in ODI’s that we are not slaughter goats.
