every dropped catch smell fixing match as they are highly paid professional players not hobby players like me. so Vigilance department of ICC must investigate is dropped catch now to ensure results are always there in tests
With dusty pitches, Indian players can accomplish their records. Any Indian ground doesn't offer a keen contest between ball and bat. Even a toddlers can score tons of run on dead pitches. Its a shame that BCCI never learn the lesson series after series. They day will come when overseas team will send their domestic teams to play in India. So boring to watch that Dravid, Sachin and VVS is playing on dead pitches before their retirement decision. Baring Sachin, no one faced or ever faced quality pace attacks. He took on Waqar, Akram, Ambrose, Walsh, Mcgrath, Lee, Pollock, Donald and others when they were in prime. Not like these jokers like sehwag,raina, yuvraj, dhoni....they only score when all grass were uprooted on the eve of test match.

do you get spinning tracks in Aus/ SA ? why are they pacy tracks ? Thats because their strength lies in their pace bowlers and they will tailor wickets that will suit their players.

Stop this rubbish. We dont need to tailor our Pitches matching with other countries. Pitches are result of local geography and environment and no need to tailor made pitches which are not match of our geography and environment. Stupidity has to have some limits. Your comments are full of contradictions. Sehwag as played and performed in all over the world. Now you are talking about quality of pace attack lol. What a loser. Come up with some logical arguments. Indian pitches are for all to perform, what stopped Aus to score 600 runs?

infact test cricket survives to this extent because of players like sewag...He always gives opportunities to finish the game in 5 days inspite of huge scores by the teams..
previously, it was sachin as one man army show and now viru? we all think that viru's dismissal is the end of the team, but remember, test cricket is not t20 or ODI..apart from initial fireworks, we need stability in the middle, them batsmen has to last longer and its here, the experience of the trio of lax, rahul and sach comes into picture..mind u, its vvs speciall innings in lanka that won us the test match.sachin always scores atleast a century in every series he plays..thats the bench mark he sets..rahul is ever reliable to provide partmerships..even viru wouldnt accept his team is not a one man show..

yes Cricket is not one man show. but i think you have not noticed that Aus scored 428. and to win a match after this you need to score fast and only viru can do that. yes it is not going to prove costly but now this match is heading for a Draw.........
