Well, last 10 days was definitely not the start of the Cricketing Bonanza we were looking forward to. For most of us both the results of the last test matches (between Aus Vs Eng and Ind Vs SA) have been disappointing. It was just not the results but the matches itself were so one sided and boring.
India loosing was almost expected (I am sure die hard optimistic fans would disagree) but such spineless counter attack was very disheartening. Sachin's 50th test ton was only silver lining. Little hopes have risen after the way India batted in 2nd innings. If India can bat this way for rest 4 innings we will surely not loose any more match. Dhoni rightly said, "to win a test match you need to take 20 wickets" and so far I don't see our bowling attack having that potency. Zaheer's return will make an impact or not we will see. Down under, Aussies have also tasted blood with the last win. I hope England can motivate themselves by remembering the 1st 2 matches of the series and erase the last one from memory as a bad dream. Ashes is also hotting up though would have liked to see England sweep the series. I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping to see the real cricketing bonanza in the next 2 weeks.
