Yes we have won after all the congroversies and off field activities. But we should not go ga ga over the event as we usually do. Let us not forget that it was closely fought match and should have gone in aussie favour had mike hussey stood for a while. We too were not that dominating as the media take us to be. There were many moments in the match which could have turned the match upside down. So instead of just shouting hurray let us look to the details and the many mistakes we made in the match. We should have scored atleast 300. From 123/5 we should not have let australia get to that total so close. Obviously we are realy short of good bowlers who can be wicket takers in crucial moments. We need some one of the caliber of say Glen Mcgrath, or Shaun pollock who can realy be mean and scare the hell out of the opposition. Only then can we consistently beat teams like australia. Another point is we should bat upto No 11. The bolwers should be capable of scoring atleast 25 runs when needed and our fielding needs to improve leaps and bounds. Unless these areas are attended to the this australian victory may be only a one of a kind
