england won 4-3 in 2007 against us. Dravid was captain that time.He gave up captaincy thereafter claiming that Captaincy span in indian environment has redeuced to 2-3 years.
Dhoni's last chance to keep capataincy... else he will have to step down... especially , he does poorly behind stamps/with bat
Indian performance in tests has been better than ODI's.
India has been number 1 in tests for almost 2 years.
Frankly , I don't think the indian team has the gas to put it across england this time.
they have been busy with IPL and then did't train due to the ODI wc euphoria and are paying a heavy price in england right now
usually the bowlers are the culprits, but this time the batsmen have failed as well.
The bowlers usually lean on the batsmen for support. This time they decided to take a piggyback ride on the batsmen. The batsmen faltered when presented with such a scenario

Sameer, batsman can at the best help any team to draw a test. if batsmen do well any team can either lose or at the most draw.
if the bowlers do well ONLY then can any team win...
SL batsmen once made nearly 1000 runs against us in an innings in a test. but the test ended in a draw as 20 indian wickets did not fall.
in mumbai ponting's aussie side took 100 runs lead in first innings. in 4th innings they had to chase a little above 100 runs. india won the test because our bowlers took 20 wickets...

Maybe you should go and mock the cricketting experts who inspite of having tremendous cricketing knowledge and experience always were wrong in saying " INDIAN BOWLERS ARE THE WEAKLINK"

Sameer gadaiya, u are reeaallyy hilarious. you are arguing about cricket and logic with me...
Sameer, looking at your posts forget 4th grade nobody will allow you to enter 1st grade. when you go will go to take school admission you will realise that you will not pass the test. just one look at you and you will be told to go back to your home. javed jaffrey of dhamaal and double dhamaal has 100 times greater IQ than you...
you and mature? that is a laugh..i dont want to be 'mature' as 'u people'...if i become like 'mature' u my place will be in mental asylum...
when you talk about 'us mature folks' you of course mean people like LG, ASHISH KUMAR, yourself, senthil, against pseudos, arvin g, sunil k, nostradamus and such like....ha ha ha if you people are mature and logical and understand cricket then afghanistan is no. 1 cricket team in the world...ha ha ha

Does'nt Matter Dear Paki, we all know that in spite of fixing & ball tampering your Country cannot even host 1 International match in the foreseaable future.
Hence think about yourself first before pointing out on another's mistake.
