if Kohli had've brought this home then it would have been the finest innings I have ever seen.

As it is - I regard it as being in my top 10.

Do wonder what MSD as captain would have done differently ?

Would he have gone for it to this extent ? That test in West Indies comes to time.

Would it have been up to him? Struggle to believe that Kohli wouldn't have gone for it regardless.

It would be up there in mine as well except that he got lucky.. If DRS was available this wouldn'tve happened.

Hmm yeah, I guess but Kohli saying he told the team yesterday that whatever target we get we should go for it. Don't think MSD overall has that mentality so clearly which actually turns out bad for India at times.

Only difference today though i think would have been MSD coming in himself instead of Saha. Kohli was egging on Saha when he started attacking.

I think by that stage it was clearly on though


Saha gave it away awfully though, I think Dhoni would have also been aggressive but he wouldn't have wasted his wicket like that. It was pretty much ODI territory at that stage and would you really want Saha over him Dhoni then?
