Recent series

[ceprateek]

Recent Test series between india and pakistan is all batsman and nothing for the bowlers I suppose.

Well Indian bowlers did good job on falt track but pitch was not best for International matches. In last match India was very close to 2-0 win but due to bad light Indians happy with 1-0.

But in last test and last session in bangalore,It turned to bowlers wickets,Pakistan players were in queue to play,But unfortunate to India,Due bad light stopped the play,last test also drawn.test series gone to India after 27 years.

Last match was a bit of bowlers too and india almost sneaked in and also there was a wrong LBW decision of not out otherwise who knows india would have won

I feel the bite has gone out of India-Pakistan matches due to the lackluster performances of the Pakistan cricket team. In the recent times Indian-Australian rivalry has been more interesting.During the seasons to follow this might be a fascinating contest now that Aussies had to taste defeat on their home grounds. Not sure if Geof Lawson has contributed anything of significance to the Pakistan team.

HAHA you must have seen the second test and you must have realized that its all you SA bowlers and batsman. They bowled out india for 76 and then made 550+ and then won the match by an innings and 100+ runs.

So what do you have to say this in connection with the pakistan series dude. This is a sport where one may win and lose the other day. You cannot predict the teams performance and efficiency in a single test match.

Yeah, India didn't play upto it's potential in the second test and it didn't help that neither Sachin nor Ishant were playing in that test , but the third test will be worth the time because Ishant has been included.For some reason , Anil Kumble hasn't been as effective in this series as he usually is. Hopefully , that will change during the third test.

We cannot say that Kumble has not been efficient. In the first test match, we need to blame the curator. Both the teams played well as if they have forgotten how to lose a wicket. In the 2nd test, Indians had a very bad show. Let us wait for the 3rd match. But still we will be missing Sachin Tendulkar.
