After winning the first test match against England where spinners played the key role behind the victory the Indian team might have been thinking of it being in the stronger side because of having few good spinners in their sleeve. Which led MS Dhoni asked for the pitch where his spinners can turn the boll and again get the opponents in trouble. His desire for the the high turners attracted much criticism from across the cricket experts. But his wish backfired when in the second test match England didn't commit the mistake of droping Monty Panesar from the playing 11. His 10 wickets haul won the England a match and levelled the series 1-1. The point is Indian where spinners were struggling or even starving to get the wicket on home English were able to turn it in to their favour and provided India with a recipe of humiliation and agony of being annihilated in home ground so badly. Sachin was consistent with his bad form which is nothing new for world cricket, now master is used to play one good inning in almost ten. Pujara came to the rescue in 1st inning but we can't expect him play the crucial knock everytime as it is a team game all have to perform if they have to win it. KP is back with a bang, after a host of controversies this knock will speak much about his cricket. Hope from next time Dhoni will think twice before making his any wish public.
