It appears that main reason of failure of top 5 batsmen was to be too defensive. Even if you are not in a hurry to score, and, want to spend some time on the crease, one has to show some aggression in the batting, to avoid bowler gaining too much confidence to trouble you.

A person who does not know how to guide a team cannot be a coach. First and 4thtest were ours for the asking but Shastri could not guide the teamHe became a coach due to Kohli's politics in getting Komble removed.

well said shilpa...these fickle minded indian fans will change their opinion after every match
BCCI should think very seriously and remove Sastry from coaching job , if Kohli did some tantrum drop him also from captaincy . We want some pride in losing the test matches , lose the battle fighting not like submitting so meekly . If old guys are failing give chance to new talent like Hanuma , Prithwi , Karan Nair etc . Any how India is losing but some talent will come out . Drop Dhawan, Rahul,Ajinkya,Pandya etc

This is an entirely different approach to the loss of the Test match series. Interesting!

What analysis by you! I doubt whether u hv held a cricket bat or ball ever in ur life. You seem to be one who goes to stadium to see not the game, but the tamassha alround associated with it. Stop talking, and making urself a but of jokes.

What you say is bullshit , if at all you consider the cricket technically correct you must play red ball cricket. Others are gullible cricket and other formats are not cricket
