THE SUNSHINE OF VICTORIES
All their players in a way or the other have contributed to the team.
QUICK LOOK:
Alastair Cook : 500+ runs with three centuries
Trott : Crucial 87 runs and 100+ Partnership with Cook for 2nd test
Nick Compton: Two half centuries and a 100 run partnership with Cook
Peterson: 180 runs in 2nd test helping England win the test
Panesar : 17 wickets in two matches crushing Indian top Order
Swann : 15+ wickets
Anderson: Bowled superb in Kolkata test taking priced wicket of Sachin and Others
Finn: Superb 3rd test 2nd inning Bowling crushing Indian batting lineup.
The England lineup after consecutive wins are charged up ready for yet another spectacular performance
These stats are enough to make one understand how hard will India have to Practice to make a strong Comeback in 4th and Final Test.
The Mist Of Defeats
With back to back defeats and most of their batsman failing to regain their form,the Indian lineup looks in patches.Apart from Pujara who showed consistency none other bats man impressed the selectors. Pujara who scored 206 and 135 in two test matches was rather unlucky in the third test.
The only plus points in the series is the Wicket taking of Ojha , Ashwin coming up as an All Rounder and Gambhir somewhere very close to get back to his good form with back to back half centuries and 40 runs in his last match.
Sehwag Played well for his 49 in the last match before getting out to a stunning delivery by Swann.
The Matter of Concern is the Pace department and the Silent Willows of Maestro and Captain Cool.
Besides the Team has been shuffled by replacing senior players viz. Zaheer,Yuvraj and Harbhajjan with Awana,Jadeja and Chawla..
Will these changes help team India to regain it's long lost glory?
Just one day more to wait!
Lets see how does our shaken team India cope up mentally with the defeats..
Wait and hope for the best.. :)
