Have Team India burnt their boat before crossing the river...?

New Delhi: The victory at Lord's is already appearing to be deceptive as Team India has been tactically outwitted and exposed as a side that cannot take pressure.The question that is uppermost in everyone's mind

To everyone's surprised Team India not only shocked the connoisseurs of cricket but themselves as well by beating England at Mecca of cricket..that too after long 28 years.

As expected there there were celebrations, cheers and beers…….But what one just overlooked amidst tumult the fact that much famed Indian batting line up was still nowhere near their potential. Dhawan looked conscious to save his slot and Kohli buried under the debris of huge expectations.



It was Ajinkya Rahane (103) and medium pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar ( 6/82) in the first inning and than , Murali Vijay (95), Jadeja (68) and Kumar( 52) in the second inning who laid the foundation for a famous victory.



Ishant Sharma did the rest by bouncing the English batsmen off their feet. He took seven wickets, not only his best but by it was a best bowling performance by any Indian bowler at Lord's.
