Another match and another loss for India.
Another match and another win for the Aussies.
But this loss hurt a lot as compared to all the others that we keep losing all the time - reason, it would have been good to screw the Aussies in their own turf when they start we thinking that they can do nothing wrong (and indirectly assume that all the others are bugs waiting to be crushed). They were also on the way for a record which I'm sure that they can do without...and this was a place where India did have a genuine chance to beat the Aussies...but then destiny had something else in mind.
As the wise men say - well begin is half done...from rocking Aussies to 130 odd for 6, they managed a decent score(thanks to the umpires) and then they were facing the barrel for suite some time in their first innings, but thankfully all the junta pitched in and India got a decent lead...Now the thing is that since they had not given any controversial decisions when India were batting, the umpires fingers were itching again to give some googlies for the Aussie second innings....and then some more in the Indian innings...all in all, it was the umpires who had a say in the final outcome of the game and not any player from either side of the camp.
I can't help but feel for Kumble who did whatever he could to get a draw for India but then the Aussie team and the Umpires combination proved to be too much to beat.
