Ram Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Holy Sh!t...! No.1 TEST team? What a fantastic day for Indian cricket! Veeeeee Raaaaaaaaaaack! :isalute: Link to comment
Pak_Fan_4_Eva Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Congratulations. India did play some excellent cricket this past year and a half. But,with due respect, this doesn`t make you the best team in the world. I`d leave you to think about this logically. Look at the Saffers :P Link to comment

Look at the Saffers :P Agree@.. we need to pawn atleast one of Aus/NZ/SA at their home before others start acknowledging us as major contenders for the top spot (home factor apart) Link to comment
Guest Gunner Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Agree@.. we need to pawn atleast one of Aus/NZ/SA at their home before others start acknowledging us as major contenders for the top spot (home factor apart) Wasn't that already accomplished this year? :hmmmm: Against the aussies, compare our record against them in Australia since 2000 and those of the others. Saffers, we just haven't played them enough. Link to comment

Just happy about achieving the #1 rank in test cricket. Its been a good past few years and its kinda deserved Link to comment
Karan114 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Saffers' date=' we just haven't played them enough.[/quote'] We've played them in 2000, 2001, 2004, 2006, 2008...I would say that's a decent number of series. Let's face it, they are the one team we haven't dominated, all other sides we have had success against these last few years Link to comment

Saffers, we just haven't played them enough. don't think we've pawned anyone overseas yet... 1-0 victories etc are hardly pawning....but agian this is just a matter of time as we build our seam attack..Sreesanth is one piece of the jigsaw puzzle..waiting for 2-3 more (Ishant makes a comeback ?..Tyagi ?..Zaheer?)

vvvslaxman Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 SL will take chances to win the next Test. With a bit of application India should be able exploit is to suit our own advantage. Link to comment
Celeste Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Getting to number 1 rankings without winning a series in SL,SA & Aus says alot about the ranking system. Link to comment
