The blame for not being able to win this game rests on Anil Kumble and selectors. His leadership was very bland and lacked sharpness. I quote Zaheer Abbas who said, "Overall, I though India's batsmen did not play fully to the situation in the second innings. The match was theirs to take, but they did not score quickly enough and that, in turn, did not give their bowlers enough time to get at the Pakistan batsmen. A combination of time, lack of assistance from the pitch and some unimpressive tactics from the Indians combined with quality batting by Pakistan saw this match end in a well-contested draw."
The politics of Pau-Bhaji from the Mumbai lobbey is going to kill the winning streak Indian team has developed under Dhoni and Yuvraj. Now I hear the Agarkar will be back .. again? Why is Karthick playing in the team when Yuvraj and Gambhir ara available? Only Sharad Pawar can answer that. Can someone save Indian Cricket from these dirty topi-wala politicians?

Punjabi and Bengali a joke
One bengali and punjabi's were neighbours. Bengali use to call punjabi is it 12 o'clock?
Bengali was newly married his wife was healthy pink like apple in beginning. as days progressed she started fading day by day she started fade more. One day Bengali asked what is happening all the time you are eating Katla Rou Machchhi Bhat why are fading? She replied dekho hamesha Punjabi ke yehan bara baje rahate hein aur hamare yahan Chhhe baje rahate hein. (meaning at Punjabi's place always it is 12 o'clock and with us it is always 6 o'clock)
Let us replace Harbhajan and Kumble by Murali and Warne, respectively and see how FLAT the pitch really was!! I bet Pakistan wouldn't last 60 overs on this pitch.
The pitch was slow but full of dust and rough areas.

yeah u r right, but I am wondering how could you observe it and not our INTERNATIONALLY acclaimed bowlers. Is something amiss in Indian Selection Body

Hogwash. Then how come Murali failed to take many wickets in Australia just 3 weeks back? Even today in his own home town of Kandy Murali has bowled 15 overs and has not taken a wicket. The same for Warne. Just remember the test match in Eden Garden(year 2000) itself when Laxman and Dravid got all those runs and massacred Warne. So every great bowler has his bad day in a match. Just because there is dust and rough patch does not make it spinner friendly. In winter the wicket is slow (because of lack of sunshine) and it gives ample time for batsmen to play shots even when the ball is turning. In this match bowlers from both sides struggled to get wickets. Remember India only lost 10 wickets in the match. Kumble is also a great bowler like Murali and Warne. He is only a few wicket behind. Some test matches end in draws. It cannot be helped.
Punjabi s shouldn't be in cricket teams , they should be in circus because jokes are never complete without Punjabis. The earlier scrap by Sanjay was one such joke. Punjabis keep up the image of being a joker.
