I've been dead to the world for the majority of India's response. Anyone care to tell me how things have been developing?

England were pretty much the favourites after the first innings... could never see India chasing down 280 with a tail that bigGood catch! Huge wicket!!! Jimmy does the trick. We might just be favourites now.
India are gonna get a real hammering when they come down to play in Oz, especially with the fielding they have. Fill your boots time for the Ausie batsmen - it'll be a good chance for Ponting and co to add a few extra runs to their averages!
That's probably it now.

How predictable was that bowling analysis booster for Panesar?

This series is funny, first dodgy travellers outside of Asia for much of their history India win a Test series in England and England who are usually dire (ok maybe that is too strong of a word?) in ODIs are currently leading 2-1, although you never know what you might get with India or whether now I have jinxed England.

So what's next for India? I think an extra batsman is clearly needed. I would pick Robin Uthappa and drop either RP Singh or Powar depending on the conditions.
However after this tour India needs to groom a better player for the 8 spot. Powar and Chawla simply aren't good enough. Doesn't have to be a genuine all-rounder but at least someone who can average close to 20.

Wow, best call ever.
Problem with India is, if you're going to pick 5 bowlers, don't send the opposition in. India were cruising when Dravid and Ganguly were at the crease, but all it took was a couple of wickets and suddenly Dhoni and Yuvraj are in a "cannot get out or we lose" position. Whereas if you have a batsman in at 7, its far far easier to chase.
The successful large chases of recent times have come with long tails. Not Powar coming in at 7 and bunting Monty straight to the fielder.
Dravid, Ganguly and Dhoni's dismissals were all really disappointing.
If I was an English fan I'd be might excited about Broad and Anderson as a future opening pair for many years to come.

Nah. Six weeks before one of them is down with a long-term injury.
