jadeja was instrumental in getting crucial wkts n it was a beauty of left armer's delivery to get clark clean bowled thru his defence. n he had a brilliant runout as well.
jadeja the batter hasnt done well compared to his domestic performances at intnl level, but as a bowler is doing rather well. if given time, jadeja improves his batting,it vl b a real bonus to ind that v may hv good bowling allrounder.
v hv many batting allrdr but v need good bowling allrdr who primarily takes wkts consistently.
It used to be that the pitches would be easy to play on day 1 through 3 and then start breaking up and favoring turns. Captains would decide to bat on winning the toss to avoid batting last. If you look at results over last few years form all part of the world, you will notice that the wicket favors the bowler in the early part of day 1. There is much more bounce and swing in the first day especially in the morning. As the game progresses day one after lunch and day 2/3 are best for batting. Just an observation. Any way, this Australian team is a total mismatch. It is very likely that the 3rd and 4th tests will end within three days resulting in whitewash and an apt reply to our humiliation in Austrlia.

Even when Shane Warne, argueably the best spinner ever played the game, around ausies struggled to win matches in India. at the end of the day, you have to make runs, take wkts, irrespective of the wicket conditions. both the teams have to play out their skin.
When the team is defeated for whatever reason, they heap insults on the captain & the team members especially the great Tendulkar, who, without an iota of doubt, is the greatest cricketer that this country has produced.
On the other hand, whenever they win, there is no word of congrats for their hard work. Again, they post all negative comments. Pujara/Dhoni's double tones are no mean achievements. So what if they are a weak team? Even we were a weak team once upon a time. I still remember the frustration of the Indian team, when Bill Lawry & Simpson put on 191 runs for the first wicket in the sixties. Indians paid it back, when Dravid and Laxman won the match after adding 400 & odd runs under difficult conditions especially after following on to Aussies.
Well, moon does not remain the same all through the months. There are ups & downs in life and let us not post negative comments at least when Indians are winning.

if jaddu is not good spinner, then y didnt ausis spinners turn the ball n got the wkts for them?
Yes Mr. Clarke..You had almost the same team barring a few players who had thrashed India 4-0 down under on bouncy tracks, celebrating with your teammates having beer n partying hard thinking ur were an unbeatable team where our Indian team were in the same sitiuation where you are in now (raha bhi na jai, saha bhi nai jai). We will make sure u go down 4-0 here...What goes aroun, comes aroun.
