whats Sachin's 199th test achievement - A Great 10 - will be well remembered by Kolkata fans and in particular Ganguly. In Mumbai, it might be in reverse order. Keep guessing.
As a true secular Indian citizen feels happy that another secular bowler has popped up on scene. Congress and SP are very happy, so is Azam Khan a great secular Indian leader.
M.S.Dhoni has been responsible for keeping Mohd. Shami to sit outside and reluctantly included in the team as he was not inclined to keep him in the team.S.Mohsin Ali Shah
BCCI deliberatelycancels SA tour and calls the West Indies Team to benefit Sachin Tendulkar,todays'generation has not seen bowlers of the calibre of Andy Roberts,Malcolm Marshal,Holding,Walsh,Garner,Colin Croft of the west Indies and every TV Channel is celebrating this victory over the weakest Team in the world.
A bowler bags 9 wickets for 100 odd runs and you give MOM to a batsman? No wonder quality bowlers have become rare species in our country. Replace bowlers with bowling machines and award the batsman who hits longest six in every match.

Since a long time there is demand for separate man of the match award for batting and bowling in test matches. Sami deserved in his first match to get this award. The whole team played well.

Though Shami should have got the award, the fact that Rohit played a huge role in lifting India from 83/5 to 450 tilts the points in his favour. Had Rohit not scored that much, Shami would have got very less to defend. WI batsmen could even have attacked Indian bowling had they got an handsome lead. WI has a fearsome batting order, all can clear the boundary (though they are more suited for T20 than tests).
