Mukund -- 2/10 -- Failed in both innings, possibly worse than M. Vijay Dravid -- 8/10 -- Brilliant Century in the 1st innings...he has done his job for the most part Lax -- 7/10 -- Good half century and partnership in the 1st inning...faltered in the 2nd Tendu -- 1/10 -- Horrible series for him so far..too much imp given to his 100, his 50 in the 2nd came too little too late...Came to England 1 month before...skipped WI series... Yuvi -- 7/10 --- Good Contribution in the 1st inning, helped us go past 200..did Bhajji's job and took a wicket as well Raina -- 3/10 -- hasn't improved technically...found out every time... M - 0/10 --- Failed w/ Leadership, Failed as a Captain, Failed as a batsman, Stubborn as a mofo and kept gifting runs to Eng on Day 3 in the third man region....can sell his team/country to preserve his personal image...spirit of the game award best candidate Bhajj - 1/10 --- Once again failed w/ the ball, didn't bowl much ....1 point for fight back given in the 2nd inning PK - 8/10 --- Great Effort, 7 wickets in this test match, handy w/ the bat....can't expect much else from him Ishu - 5/10 --- so Inconsistent....bowls good one day, horrible another day Sree - 5/10 ---- Great 1st inning contribution, expensive 2nd inning Duncan Flether the Coach --- -10/10 ---- Suppose to know in and out of the English team? Suppose to be an expert? Was hired specifically for Mission England? Obviously was shocked to see the way Team England performed. Not the same team he coached. He's got to go
Raina.......... 1/10, his wicket was the turning point in both tests first innings. Bhajji........... 3/10, because his performance is not too bad. Field placements of captain were made his bowling poor. Dhoni wasn't attacked the batsmen with his field placements in Bhajji's bowling. Mukund just disappointed with his batting. Sehwag will replace him. We must appreciate Rahul Dravid because he changed his batting position and made a great century. His mind set is too strong in this series. Laxman was not lucky in second innings. That ball from Anderson....superb Sachin's second innings lbw decision is doubtful.... umpire was interested to give him OUT. Yuvi........ good performance in first innings. needs improvement towards short pitch balls Dhoni........... 100% failed as a batsmen. 75% failed as captain. His performance behind the wickets is good. Bowling is good except some spells of each bowler. We can easily say, Luck is in favor of England in last two test

it the match would have been saved, it would have had done more harm to indian cricket. I'm very happy that India Lost. Atleast they would only improve from here, can't lose in a more humiliating manner. They should and will do the Soul Searching. Specially Dhoni, Harbhajan, Raina. They failed miserably. If we feel the pain, they would also. So lets accept the defeat as a enabler of change in indian cricket.

It looked an easy decision to me. Sachin made a poor decision to leave but he played very well for his half century and hopefully he can go on and make some runs from here.
