India as a country and people are very humble, get satisfy easily and not able to maintain intensity and this is in our genetic make up.
Its very evident that they were complacement today amidst some good aggresive cricket by an ordinary team australia.
An euphoria of 4-0 is next to impossible for thi team, who is just contented enough to win series 3-0, sorry, 3-1.
I would love to be provien otherwsie, but have not seen Indian cricket dominate the world crciket playing with better teams (other than bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Srilanka etc).
So its 3-1 in favor of India. I do not forsee this India team chasing anything more than 150 in fourth inings, and that;s the reality. We won but with an ordinary team and will surrender for thier slightest of the fightback.
Is Virat Kohli going in the way of Gambhir & Sehwag? Has the captaincy greed affected him also? Of late his batting/fielding does not show the usual zeal and enthusiasm.
Poor child Rahane is forced by the selectors to face such torture. Please give this boy a break, let him grow-up..... poor kid must have have realised that test cricket is not child's play after Siddle's bouncer crashing into his helmet. Message is - don't go by the tons of runs these kids score in domestic cricket, let them learn to pull, cut and play fast bowling on bouncy pitches. then throw them in...or else let the children grow ....I doubt Rahane will ever recover pshycologically from today's blow on his skull.
There is one more number to achieve for Sachin... . 200 tests. Till such time you have to be patient. How is it important Sachin scores. He has to play that's all. Runs others will make. You know Kallis is chasing him closely. So you never know when the little master will call it a day . Till Kallis retires perhaps..

he has been struggling for the past so many years.
patil dropped sehwag who had hit a winning ton against eng. this leach&plaster who considers himself above the game will not be thrown out as long as he has his "uncles" in bcci.
Sachin has failed yet again and I don't understand on what grounds he is allowed to play. He has become a liability to the team and his presence is only blocking the future of a young guy who has been waiting for his turn to represent the country.
But our selectors and captain can only be tough with Bhajji, Sehwag, Gambhir, Yuvraj, Wasim Jaffer, etc. Shame on Sachin. Can't he see that he has had enough and so have we.
Just drop Sachin from all the future games. Let us accept the fact that he is a past force who cannot be allowed to live on past glory.
