Pause Of A Beautiful Journey For Me ... India win the series 3-2

Damn! They scored too much. Bowling turned out to be ineffective really. We got early wickets comfortably but then Shah and Gaurav just piled on the runs and we were unable to break through.

Tough task now. Chasing 378 with 3.4 runs per over is possible. Lets see what lies ahead.
 
Hopefully we're not stupid enough to chase this down. And why did you call up Ricky Ponting as a replacement :facepalm Shouldn't we get another all-rounder?

Still 2 more sessions left

 
A draw is sure. But our batting was so bad. Losing 4 wickets easily. Yet again its on Fenil and Clarke.
 
Clarke is still there and Johnson to come, we can settle for a draw with 2 sessions left. We need a big partnership here. At least for an hour or may be couple.

Yes, ideally we should have picked an allrounder but there's no decent allrounder in Aussie squad these days unless you get in someone like James Hopes or Andrew Symonds.
