Have you ever seen a more inaccurate post?
They choked against Australia in tests? When have they been 1-0 up and gone on to LOSE the series?
And we didn't play test cricket vs. Aus in 2005.
Just so many errors. But your overall point is correct, India haven't won this series yet so we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves. But I'll tell you what, better to be 1-0 up and on top of the world then 0-1 down and having possible both your opening batsman hiding in the middle order in the next game.
Hi Jono, Just now checked the history! I am sorry. It was in Dec 2003. Here it is
December 2003
Australia v India, 1st Test
4-8 Dec 2003, Brisbane Aus 323 & 284/3d
Ind 409 & 73/2 Match drawn
Australia v India, 2nd Test
12-16 Dec 2003, Adelaide Aus 556 & 196
Ind 523 & 233/6 India won by 4 wickets
Australia A v Indians
19-21 Dec 2003, Hobart Aus A 311/5d & 241/7d
Ind 245 & 66/2 Match drawn
Australia v India, 3rd Test
26-30 Dec 2003, Melbourne Ind 366 & 286
Aus 558 & 97/1 Australia won by 9 wickets
India went on to level the series after everyone expected to win easily after their second test win.
