I think they will be dropped to 3rd or 4th rank in test cricket after this tour. What a poor performance by the Indian team. England batted in the same pitch to make a huge 2nd innings score of 544 in 120 overs with the economy rate 4.54 while India was all out for 158 runs in just 47 overs. What a great batting performance by the first rank holders. Only Harbajan and Praveen Kumar scored 2 digits other than Sachin Tendulkar. Wawa. Dhoni has been praised by the media for his sportsman spirit for withdrawing the appeal of run out of Ian Bell. That run out would have made a big difference.
