Even the last match we lost to Aussies.. nobody is close to these two old horses. Aussie tailenders scored more than indian batsmen.. thats the situation.. please dont blame sachin on india loses. he most of the time contributes .... if it was a tennis game sachin would be winning most of the games just cos of his talents just like federer. sadly it is a game of cricket and he has to depend 10 other people...

which lady has his classic shots? U seems to have some girl fever, who ever you see looks like your girl. In india innings you might have seen only dravid as others went in no time.
If any one has observed impartially,for some time now, Sachin has been batting splendidly.The only hiccup has been that he couldnot score that elusive 100. That apart, any one bowling at him should be concerned yb his technique and the fine nick he is in. Wih Zaheer and Ishant going through the rigours of test cricket without problem only augurs well for the team . You have a great plus of Umesh"s bowling.Am sure that the Indian Batsmen will play far better than the Melbourne test.So looking ahead posiitively, India has to gain from now onwards.Aussies had put all the eggs in their basket too quickly and am sure there is nothing much to expect from them. let us see how the series go farward.

if praveen/srishant/irfan/bhaajji was playing then we may have not taken 20 wickets by any chance and the match would have dragged to 4 / 5 th day. But it wont mean we played better then how we played in the 1st match. We tried, we failed but good chance to bounce back!
We lost as a team. As far as batting is concerned, We crashed from a strong position of 214/3 in first innings and surrendered completely in the second innings. But look at the way, bowlers lost in both innings to allow scores of more than 300 in first innings (from 140/6) and 240 in second innings (from 27/6). Why should we single out only batsmen for the failure?

explorer go and explore yor mind.u seem to be out of yor mind.watch matches then post comments.they were neither 140/6 in first innings and nor 27/6 in 2nd innings.
