Completely agree. The series is far more important than the match, especially given India's overseas history.

Pasag just stole the words out of my... keyboard (???)
Winning 2-0 would be nice, but honestly when you look back at this series, its not the scoreline but the winner of the series which is the bottom line. Don't risk it (even though I think its almost impossible for India to lose from here).

I'm not convinced yet but I'd have him over Harmison any day.

This is what irks me about Dravid's decision. We're going at just over 2 rpo for what? Nothing is being gained other than wasting overs atm. I understand they can't score freely because of the conditions and the situation, but its just so stupid.
Ganguly is going really well though. Dare I say it, is he a better test batsman now then he was/has been for many many years? Even possibly from 2000-2005?

He should be, he offers the variation the selectors want (which is why Harmison gets picked) but does it a hell of a lot better.

Regardless of his form, wouldn't Indian fans be slightly apprehensive of KP in a run chase. Mitigating factors in this instance is that England need to win to draw the series and that England haven't lost a Test series at home since 2001.
In saying that, I'd hate to see India bat out the game.

IMO, now that they've made the stupid decision to bat, they can't delcare with anything less than 500 runs.

What's the end result genius?
that ****er is making sure there is no result. Every other captain in the world would want to win after lead of over 320 runs.Yeah, he's fixing India's situation and making sure we don't lose.
