Good to see the team spirit-players backing each other after massive failure.But,why don't these batsman accept the real fact that non among these players can bat successfully on bouncy tracks against fast bowlers???Non of them can match class of Sachin,Gavaskar,Dravid,Laxman,Gundappa Vishwanath & Mohinder Amarnath.This is just the begining--more drubbing is awaiting them..

Dhoni is right. We've dropped too many chances, Had we accepted those, the results could have been different. Please do not overlook the fact that it was SA, who scored the lowest so far in an innings in this series. Of course our batsmen did not fare well.

Dhoni got a good cricketing brain. He is still the best wicket keeper, cool captain and his batting when it comes good, it is too good but dont know why in certain matches still I felt him playing like a begineer, especially when facing good spinners. Now regarding his remarks about Kohli & Team. He is spot on. Taking 20 wickets in both test matches is a big positive. Bwolers are able to penetrate through the opposition batting line up. If India batted the second innings of both the matches, like a one game kind of approach I think they had a good chance to win. SA normally choke under pressure. So some agression from our batsmen, the way Pandya did it in the first test could have been tried. SA is not the best team now when compared to the past.
