reg: Mendis & Murali
by sivakumaran subash on Jul 28, 2008 08:13 AM

Technically sound indian batting, lost out the well orchestrated Mind game. It was surprising how great players like Tendulkar, Dravid, Laxman & Ganguly could not apply their mind to grind it out. They should see Gavaskar's masterly knock of the Bangalore test where he scored 90 odd runs for a losing cause. The moral of the story is to put a price to one's wicket. Defensive tactics would not work with Murali, but then aggression should be controlled. It is a difficult job, but these are times which differentiate a champion side from laymen. Arise my dear countrymen and put up a fight. It is the lack of spine which ardent Indian fans are not able to digest, not losing. For winning and losing are part of the game.
