Dhoni and Bhajji's politics kept Sreesanth from bowling more. After his stupendous success in the last test, they - dhoni and Bhajji - grew insecure and were scared that Sreesanth will repeat his success in Mumbai too.
So even though he bowled a tighter line and had more maidens that ZAheer, he was quickly pulled out of the attack, and replaced with Zaheer!
On the last day, only Zaheer was made to bowl and Sreesanth was in the outfield. This Dhoni bhajji politics will create bad blood and ruin this wonderful team. Mark my words!!!

Sreesanth shouldn't be in the team who has taken him in this team. He should not be playing cricket anymore.
Seems,Murli & Sangakara seems to have forgotten one Vidnagmage,a wonder in Lankan pitches!!He used to raise the finger the moment the ball struck the pads!!Im not justifying some dubious decision but they would have benefitted also.Sangakara has a right to write his comment in the match report book and relish the moment under the sun( of a neighbour who have helped them nurture cricket in their island).

Big joke.. as if the Brits care..They are only bothered about Football and other sports.. Cricket is the last sport in their list.. the reason is very clear.. there is no competition whatsoever in it at all...
We lack number one position if we select players like the following.
1, Munaf Patil - Lazy, incompetent in tests and lacks killing instinct, A pure net bowler
2, Suresh raina - In seaming wickets a pathetic sight to watch, He can't duck or stay away.short pitch will done for him. good for Ranji.
3, Rohit sharma - Comes from a poor background in Mumbai. Because of newly recived fame and glamour lost the consistency.Once before finals in Karachi he was parting with Gals.Brahmin party boy
4, Jadeja - Purely Ranji class. Even Boycott's 90 yrs old grandamma can run better than this guy and lack pure cricket Brain.
We need to induce players like Sudeep Tyagi, Chawla,Iqbal Abdulla,Kaif,Irfan Pathan,M Pandey,Pujara for the retainment of the number 1 position.Jai Inde Jai Inde

India is not keen to play Test cricket and is only concentrating on ODI and T20, using that time in playing IPL as it generate more revenue. What a pity!!

There are three more tests against NZ, I think in Dec'10 making total 5 in 2010 season. BCCI converted 3 tests against SA with 5 ODIs, no doubt because of revenue. Pitty BCCI dont kill Test
