a. Indian bowling lacks balance. b. Every bowler wants other bowler to be more responsible c. There is no variety or commitment in Indian bowling. d. Last 3-4 Batsmen in Indian Team are good for nothing. e. Indian Batting is not matured, however good they perform they can collapse any time. f. Ozzei proved once again why they are such a good side especially at home. g. Their skills at Sledging and provocation, come with their brought up.. h. @mpire DS proved once again how dangerous he can be for Indians, Like S B@cknor few years ago who had strange satisfaction in declaring SRT out again and again.. i. including i & h above Indian team should always think that they are playing against 3 man team, with 4 less batsmen.. j. Appreciable patience from Smith, who measured Indian bowling attack and stuck to his limitations only to score on loose deliveries which our bowlers do habitually.. k. Indian Bowling made Smith an average batsman to Great... etc., etc., Iam tired...

including i & h above Indian team should always think that they are playing against 13 men team, with 4 less batsmen (i.e., 7)..
Lot of people from Karnataka were shouting for this guy. It is now proved that he is not up to international class just like follow team mates Uthappa, Vinay Kumar etc. Would have been better had india played Akshar Patel insted of him. He would have scored 20-30 runs and also bowled well on this pitch

Dear friend , why are you so critical to a particular region?. You may be right about this guy who hardly scored. But many greats in their first match have always failed. Look at GRV or SRT . Anyway I am not the fan of KL Rahul, but we need to be fair on our comment. Even Rohit sharma has been given so many chances even for that matter Agarkar who was always considered as the brightest "youngster" for the future . So let's give some chance before writing off this guy.

He looks to be on-side player, without patience. His follow-thru on the short he was out was horrible, he may be good in sub-continent pitches.. OR will have to risk playing him again. Risk because he doesn\'t seem to understand the situation and how he can contribute himself.. The way and timing he got dismissed twice in the match were disgusting..

Well said. Hopeless captaincy, listless performance . Indian test cricket will be in ruins as long as "captain cool" stays in

We lost 4-0 to them before that and they were in a transition period when they last toured India,i bet it will not be a case now if they tour us again.They may not win but they will fight better than last time.Same as India did on this tour,they improved their performance from the last tour.

Its difficult to measure the impact of bad umpiring and sledging... while playing with this team its not normal game..
India salvaged pride to some extent by drawing the test. India should have sent regular no. 3 Pujara instead of a new comer Rahul at that critical moment or could have sent inform Rahane. poor strategy. for next match better to dhawan and bring Raina

yes raina should be there in the team.. absence of raina / yuvi is most distressing for team india

Raina is a person of positive mentality,who inspires entire team even during the time when situation not in favour of the team

drop is missing in my typing it should be drop Dhawan and bring in Raina for the fourth test while continuing Rahul to give one more chance

Instead of saying, lot of people from Karnataka ,you can say sports entusiatist of India were in favour of Rahul based on his performance. Rahul has failed, what about Dhavan,Poojara who are in the team for a long. Mr DAS you cannot judge any person based on his two innings. Further why are you bringing dirty politics of regionalism. Are you not tired of dirty regional politics of Politicans. Be sportive and comment on merrits.

are you an astrologer to predict axar patel would have scored 20-30 runs and getting wickets??
