England played a patient game. They figured out that they needed a big score in the first innings to ensure a victory. They also knew that the pitch will become difficult after one session on fourth day. They showed more judgement. Tendulkar should have protected his wicket in first innings to ensure another richly deserved ton.

England won last Test using paki umpire aleem dar and tony hill, if they were playing India would ahve lost in 2 days,folks!
Sehwag ---> Irresponsible Gautham Gambhir ---> Lazy always involved in run outs Virat Kohli ---> Give him his dues first series he has failed Sachin Tendulkar ----> Spent force Opposition know his game He has been clean bowled by pacers and spinners. It's time for him Cheteswar Pujara ----> Looks promising but have to prove outside India as well. Yuvraj ---> can understand his fight back but yuvi was never a test material.... Dhoni---> compare the batting style of two test batsman Alaistar cook and Dhoni. Dhoni is brute power whereas Cook is pure skill. Dhoni is very effective in shorter version of the game but in test arena i think we need to replace him..... Ashwin ----> we hired him for bowling but looks like he an all rounder.. need to nuture him and also advise him not to try too many things too early. Ishant ---> just get back to nets growing hair again doesn't mean u got ur form back. Can't believe he the same bowler who gave Ricky sleepless nights on his debut. Zaheer---> time for him to be a bowling coach Ojha ----> conventional left arm spinner but did not see a delivery from him like panesar which spun other way and got tendulkar out LBW
