India win comfortably by 6 wickets
Hats off to the three Muskateers plus Jaffer for engineering this victory. After the loss of Karthik, Jaffer and Dravid batted well, followed by Sachin and Ganguly. It was Sachin who was as solid as the rock of Gibralter, who stood between Pak and victory !
Shoaib did make inroads into the Indian batting, but he did not get the much needed support from Sami or Tanveer.
So India leads 1-0 in the Test series. It is now a resurgent India after the T20 World Cup.
Hats off to Greg Chappell who arranged this system of putting 33 players on BCCI payroll. This has fostered healthy competition amongst the players. Dravid was dropped for the ODIs. Sehwag was axed from the Test team. The statement " Nobody is indispensable " is good for the Ego- affected players. It will bring the best out of them.
I feel Yuvraj should be in for the next Test for Dinesh Karthik. Ganguly can open. It is not poetic justice to put an in-form Yuvraj away from Tests. He is in fine form like Dhoni and he should be in for the next Test.
