Another Pointless Tamasha series
So, what is new ? Absolutely nothing. Another pointless series, ahead of the all important World cup, Talks between DD and Nimbus going down to the wire (as I write this, they decided to break it off, just minutes before the 'go live' - never understood, why this tendency to reflect this 13th hour Indian mentality in every walk of life ?), another featherbed at Nagpur .....well, you can add another Indian defeat in another series.
With the brand new opening pair of Gangs and Gambhir, I do not expect any great reversal in fortune. Neither can run the quick single and both of them depend singularly for the boundary ball. Anyway, WI (Gayle and Co) are far too confident lot (thanks to the revival 4-1 against India, earlier last year) and they are unlikely to give it away too soon. Dravid will be left wondering (after these 2 series) whether he should continue playing cricket, leave alone being captain. Such will be amount of drubbing, that is awaiting India.

ur a pessimist aren't u
This isin't a pessimist comment.
I strongly second his views.
Tamasha Series ! yes it is. Ideally we should have gone to the WI to have a series rather than they coming over here. We should get used to the pitch conditions in WI. I bet it will be the same as the ones prepared during the champions trophy.
Rather we have real true belters.
Does this makes sense. We all know Indian batsmen play well on these belters. Their only problem is getting used to different conditions. Are we helping the cause by preparing belters ???
The first game was any ones game. Look at the way we gave away over 45 runs in the last 4 overs. I mean had it not been for Lara's wicket I bet we would have had a different result.
For me it dosen't make any sense to have a 4 match series !! Why would you have it?.
This is just to fill up the BCCI's revenue nothing else.

Thanks Prabhu. Anonymous - do you know the famous Aristotle saying ' One swallow does not make a summer' ? Don't try and read too much into one win in a patta wicket and that too by a thread bare margin. Imagine what would have happened if WI had batted first.
