England:haha::hysterical::giggle:

Still have better fast bowlers than India by a mile, cant wait to see Ishant lining up to send down his 80 MPH thunderbolts backed up by Sree steaming in bowling beamers. The last series in England contained a great deal of fortune for Inidia you will have to admit, hanging on at Lords with bad light, winning the toss at trent bridge practically guaranteed a win and the oval was typically flat.

MR.SACHINISM, 3 times 4 months makes a year (in case you forgot)

30 times 4 months makes it 10 years, but we still have perform in that time. Its not like that its magically gonna happen

Yes a lot of luck was involved; else it would have been a lot worse for England.

I am really not convinced by Indias number 1 credentials yet, not that im convinced by anyone elses claim to be number 1, I see Ind, SA, Aus and Eng all capable of beating each other and SL capable of beating anyone at home. Dont see why when India gets to rank 1 all of a sudden the ICC ranking get so much importance.

Until you play pakistan :D :winky:

Don't see both sides facing each other in the near future. So I guess we're holding it for another 10 years :two_thumbs_up:

Read the question carefully. We didn' ask "When will viru register his third triple century".

Please confirm... Is this the longest that anyone else stood on #1 position after Australia? If that is the case then it is quite credible... Congrats Blue B->

^^^ Yes it is.

That's a pretty incredible stat - it says a lot about Australia's dominance :)

We shouldn't worry about the rankings and look to perform on consistent basis.

Well said.

Of course we are . . . er . . . we have never beaten Australia in Australia EVER, never beaten South Africa in South Africa EVER (in fact we have won just one Test in four series spread over 18 years in that country), we haven't beaten Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka in the last 16 years. But yes, by a formula we are world number one and we can call ourselves world champions, whatever that may mean :winky:
