sourab10forever Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 One hell of a grand home season has ended. India have ticked most boxes. The Opponents on few occasions were so-so but regardless the boys have done their job. Was this the best home season ever? Link to comment
Gollum Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 For us hell yeah. All time definitely no, WI and Aus in their prime years wouldn't even drop matches. In terms of satisfaction the 2015 series against SA was right up there with Aus 2017 but unfortunately we lost the ODIs and T20s. Turning_track 1 Link to comment
Turning_track Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 (edited) Talking about tests it was a wonderful season. Undoubtedly the best one for us. Wins at home against top test sides should never be ignored or looked down upon. Team has become much more aggressive & plays an attacking brand of cricket. The test series which we used to win 1-0 or by 2-1 in the past have become 3-0,4-0 etc. Spin twins have done very well, overseas teams sweat a lot about Ash & Jaddu, now with Kuldeep its more dangerous. Saha has done very well. Fabulous work. Vijay, Rahane, Pujara continue to provide stability and Kohli was in supreme form barring the Australian series. Pune loss against Aus was a blemish and we should've won at Ranchi despite their epic blockathon. These were my only gripes. Mumbai and Chennai test wins against England was memorable. Even they didn't expected to lose those matches. Edited December 26, 2017 by Turning_track AuxiliA, Laaloo, Mosher and 1 other 4 Link to comment
mancalledsting Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Apart from CT Trophy final, Kohli's record so far as captain has been almost flawless (almost taking results into consideration). Link to comment

Laaloo Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 That fightback in Bangalore by Pujara and Rahane and then the victory in Dharamshala is bittersweet. And also winning all those games against England despite them scoring 400 + is mighty impressive. Link to comment
