Against very low total of 260 is become dengerous 4 India.Except sachin knock which was full of confidence,magic touch and soliditity made solid/concrete platform but no other batsman looked in confidence with batting.Always looks like to get out any time and provided Aus a chance to defend low total also its Lee nad Tait two over about 25 runs did all the difference u cant forgate Tait contribution in our victory...What u think...

Dear Mr. The total by itself may not appear great to achieve, but when you take the pitch condition, batting second, pressure, etc it's indeed a great feat by the men in blue. Tait has been a known wayward bowler, Lee was not bad at all. Ashwin's very first ball spun like crazy. I think the Indians did well today

thanks. but for some reason for me it shows my email address here. but previous comments it showed name 'taklu'
Bat first to win semi against Pak. Pak have good bowling attack. They chased a small 175 so badly. Bowling is Pak's Strength. Aussies didnt had a quality spinner like Afridi.

And some people wanted him to be dropped from the team for world cup. Match winners cannot be dropped. You need nerves of steel in pressure match. Even though he said he was nervous but he didn't show it.

Improved player just because of poor form for the past two years. Otherwise he is the same match winner Yuvraj

oye..Sachin kab se match winner ho gaya...he is record maker and now record keeper also as no one will play that many matches what he did...
Dhoni contribution is till date a big zero , he should soon realize that he is also in the playing 11 & has to perform..& his body language has to improve...keeping his mouth covering with gloves will not help...

But his captaincy was really great in QF. He was at his best be it field settings or bowling changes.

Everything we can forgive, but those ads of him between overs was really irritating.
