Did anyone see the match today. It was really great. One one hand the first match was feast of runs and the second match was a feast of wickets but both of them were real thrillers. But one thing that stood out of others is the innings of dinesh karthik which i think was just awesome for many reasons. He is really proving to be a very good batsman. His strokes were flawless and his play was fearless. He showed such spirits even in the last rest match. I think he is a very good batsman in the making!

No doubt India won and Danish Kartik is good and he should do ,the entire series.But some decisions in the last over of sachin was no good for cricket.At least 5 deliveries sachin bowled were wides but the umpire did not call it.this put pressure on West indies and they lost it.They should be consistance in calling wides i didn't like personnaly

I saw the match my friend. It was good. I don't know why are people are preparing pitches like this. The first one was a belter where everyone scored, this one is turnig square where everyone is struggling to hit the ball. They should prepare genuine pitches so that both the teams have the chances. Chandrapaul's knock was amazing he his proving his greatness. Nevertheless the yesterdays Windies team is not a fiery team.

I dont think so only lara was not there and it was indeed fair as both the teams had good spinners and it is good to have pitches both ways and chennai track will be more of the sort inbetween the two i guess

ya i did see the match. it was a good performance by bowlers. zaheer rocks nowadays. again i say the turing point of the math was sachins bowling. when he made dwane smith out and made the match in favour of india. karthik is turning out to b good batsman and dhoni's sleep must have been ruined !!! but this kind of competition is good for indian cricket

The pitch was not a good one for batting as u can see that the match was a low scoring one. The highlight of the match was dines karthik's knock and agarkar's and good new ball and spin bowling by india
