What a match !!! India have won a thriller at Mohali. Just the kind of a match 'Cricket' as sport needed after all the spot fixing issues that we have had. An important game not just for cricket to come over all the controversies but also for test cricket to reassure its status as the purest form of the game.
Right from day 1 when Australia started off all guns blazing in the morning session and India crawling their way back into the game with some tight bowling it has been an absorbing game of test cricket played till the end of it.
Plenty of pluses for both teams, Watson for Australia showed that he can adapt to any conditions with a hard fought century in the first innings and followed it up with a brisk knock in the second innings. Seniors for India again proved that they still have plenty in them still left.
All-in-All a fantastic game of cricket. A nerve cracking finish was just the perfect climax. Watch out for the wounded Aussies in the second test. They will be coming hard at the Indians after match being snapped from their grasp by the wagging tail of India.
JAi Ho !! to the Indians. They have fought hard to come up victorious in the first test. An important victory to justify the top spot in test rankings and one that will be remembered for long.
JAi Ho!! India
