Under his leadership..ENGLAND BEAT INDIA IN INDIA in the last test series..NOW THAT IS AN AMAZING ACHIEVEMENT..i feel it is better than beating Australia which they have done for the past 3-4 yrs..so stop complaining..no other team has done that in recent past..as Indians are Tigers at home..
The DRS is controlled by the home country ...we saw that in England when the Aussies visited them recently and now we saw it in Australia when England visited them
I saw the condition of the WACA pitch where a cricket ball could go into the crater on the pitch and was about 4-5 inches deep. If such a pitch was provided for cricket match in India, the Englich and Australian cricketers and press would have made hue and cry. Why they did not say anything about the pitch?

but neither eng who cannot play on fast and bouncy tracks as evident in this series against aus in aus can teach us how to...
not aus can teach us how to....we saw what happened to them on the fast and bouncy tracks in eng against eng....
neither can sa teach us...they themselves have not won a test series against for a long time....when dravid was captained they even lost 1 test against india...ditto last time against dhoni's team...
to sum it all, neither eng nor aus nor sa can teach us how to play on fast and bouncy tracks! because they themselves cannot play well on such tracks :)

True. Had India been in this position, I am sure there would have been tons of experts from Eng, Aus etc who would lecture about India's inabliity to handle pace and bounce. Eng seems to be in the same boat as India....
