We were better against England. Dhoni was the difference. Opening partnership was better in a couple of games than this.Also everyone was looking charged for that series. WI are yet to bat second in this series so will get to know how well they play spin. but so far they have handled spinner better.

i don't think it is about fight, west indies in odi are just a better team, more talented and skilled players, whilst flower is still on discovery trail for the magical odi success formula and finally the world cup. i think india would have struggled with gayle, bravo senior, and sarwan.

West indies deserves kudos for holding their nerves and pulling one out. But let's not disregard the bigger picture 1- India is taking things way to easily and top order is playing like school cricketers again. The bowling line up is being changed every single game and lack of continuity (except for vinay ko-maar) is hurting the youngsters. Gambhir and Raina need a kick on their rear-ends to get going again. 2- The ICC should seriously consider taking test status away from the Windies and making them an LOI-only team like they did to Zimbabwe a few years back. It is troubling to see them suck against all quality teams in tests. In ODI's they are fairly competitive though not in the top eschelon of teams.

Its India who bowled like crap in the last 10 overs and then we batted like crap in our first 10 overs.... if you take out those 20 overs then India were the better team... we just lost the match in those twenty overs... sehwag and gauti are serious concerns though cause we cannot hope of giving any challenge to the aussies without these two performing...

the fact that sehwag ***** as captain nd his carefree attitude has brought this upon the indian team... had dhoni been there he would have given a real bashing to the team mates for todays embarrasment but sehwag with the kind of performances will be laughed at if he says anything and even by his standards he usually wont say too much to the guys... the fighting spirit and the enthusiams for this series seems to be low and its just rohit fighting for his place in the side who is really performing... even kohli failed 2 out of 3 times...

Well done to WI. We can't keep expecting Rohit to bail us out every time (he did it in a couple of games in WI too). Raina and Gambhir have made 23 runs in six innings between them in this series.
Also Raina, Gauti, Viru and PP have made a grand total of 122 runs over three matches. That is an average of 10 odd :wall:
