An Astonishing Win

All the bad memories of the depleted World Cup campaign early this year might already been erased from the memory of the Cricket fans, after as astonishing test series victory over England in England. This is only the third time in last 75 years, India was able to do so.

What makes this series more special?

Team Work : Everyone in the team contributed for the success. The fact that only one Indian, that too Kumble, was managed to get to the 3 figure mark will tell the story.

Balance of Youth & Experience. Karthik, Jaffer, Sreesanth, RP Singh and Dhoni are touring England for the first time.

Bit of luck too : If the rain didn't save us the match at The Lord's, the result of this series would be different. No taking away the credit from the team, the have came together very well after that escape.

The gap between two such wins are too long (first in 1971, then in 1986 and now). Our team needs to be more consistence to be on top.
