Nah we were 2-1 in 2021. In 2022, we again went to play only one test (our fault and we deserved to draw the series for that) but it actually shows my point. Every bloody time we gave ourselves time to prepare, we did well.
Nah. Draw. We gotta deal with it. Had to come back to play the IPL and it cost us.

Whatever it takes!!!
I wonder if the bounce is uneven? Old ball and they aren't bowling too quick, but the bounce looks seriously uncomfortable oFF a good length sometimes.
Its the height. Its our kryptonite in NZ and RSA especially. Our bowlers are not tall enough to extract this kind of uneven bounce and our bowlers' main skill is swing which means they tend to bowl more floaty stuff than hit the pitch hard kind of stuff that you see from the NZ and RSA seamers at times.

Did you even read my post? I literally said the same thing.

I am just pointing out as a side, every time we had time to prepare we have done well. That tells the story. BCCI prioritizing the IPL over the tests and that costing us the series is totally fair and fine with me.

I dont know why you get angry when that is the literal scoreline of the series. We can't wish away the 5th test.
Did that scoreline happen in 2021? I am getting angry coz you are only here for bs and not actual good faith cricket discussion. Like I said, you will forever find it hard to digest India's success across dimensions. Suck it and as I pointed out again take your hatred filled drivel elsewhere.

I read it. But it bothers me that you and @Shri (:censored:) pretend we won the series. We literally didn't.
