Cheers to India

I am glad to say that India have finally won the test match against Australia, and that too in what emphatic style....by 320 runs!!!! And the man of the match was MS Dhoni. I remember saying just a couple of days ago how it is Dhoni who has had such a huge role to play in getting India to where they are now.
All the same, congratulations to the whole team and to all the supporters of this awesome Indian Cricket Team.



At this point I would also like to say a word about this one young bowler who has added needed firepower to the Indian bowling attack. I am speaking of none other than Ishant Sharma. He had a big role to play in the successful Indian tour of Australia last year and also in this one, where India have showed some real promise so far. What is great is he has stopped a rampaging Ricky Ponting. For a guy who treated any damn bowler with contempt, he was stopped short in his tracks by Ishant, who not only got him out cheaply most of the times down under, but is also following it up here. I mean who would say that Ponting is actually someone's bunny!!!!!

I agree with you buddy, but some how you are forgetting one more player, somone who has performed so well for the last year and a half and has been a prominent fiigure in the Indian cricket side, I am talking abt Gautam gambhir, we has added so much to the indian side, he was one of the leading figures in India,s 20 20 campaign and again down under in Australia he was one India,s leading run scorers, most imp of all he scored a 100 in the second innings which is sensational,thinking there are so few people with hundreds in 2nd innings you cannot ask for anything more from a Opener, Gambhir deserves as much credit as anyone else, way to go india
