This has been yet another display of idiotic batting by India.
I dont thin we should be surprised. The Indian batting has been very poor throughout this series. It would have been a remarkable turn around from what has gone past if they had done better.

Having said that, Dhoni and Harbhajan should be kicked in their backsides for not standing up to fight.

Harbhajan has to be the dumbest cricketer since Srinath. Yesterday he said in the interview that he had been bowling well all this time (Pakistan tour etc) and it was just one of those things that he didnt get wickets. It is because of this kind of I-know-all-there-to-know thinking that he will never even approach the great Indian spinners in class.

And if he thinks he is going to win test matches off his own blade he should now be demoted to number eleven.

Never a good feeling when you lose a test match. Here I feel very angry as well that India did not compete hard enough.

Very well played England though.

Patel gone, bowled Udal caught Hoggard.

Udal's stats: 9.2 3 14 4 1.50

I said he would do well lol

Great performance by England, woeful from India.

Extremely disappointed.
Hats off to England.
Terrible performance by the Indians for much of the series; bowlers let down by the fielders and batsmen let down by their lack of intelligence.
That said, very good fight from the English boys without four top players. Congratulations.

Oh wow what a brilliant performance, whole team folded for just 100... Great Job.

I'm amazed as to what happened after lunch, it looked like Indians just didn't wanted to fight back and were happy to end their misery at the wkt.

What a SHAME!

What a series from England, fantastic stuff. Remarkable result. :D :D :D

Flintoff streets ahead of anyone else for Man of the Series IMO - good batting, fantastic bowling and outstanding captaincy.

An immeasurable number of pluses from this series for England - as far as I'm concerned, the world Test rankings now go:

1. Australia
2=Pakistan
2=England
3. India

And that'll do me fine. :)

Why should South Africa not be ahead of India? England and Pakistan should have a cracker. Hope Akhtar is fit by then.
