Trichromatic Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 India has won 6 consecutive matches in test cricket? What was our last longest winning streak?

Scarves Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 Yeah they beat their record of 4 back in 82/83 and 09/10
AbhishekS Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 All hail dhoni :bow: Yes. All hail Dhoni for the 8-0 loss too. :D Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
GrandMasterSaxy Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 6-0 look good but we won all the matches in India, will be delighted if India score 8-0 beating SA in SA. It's tough but quite achievable.
Soorma_Bhopali Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Let's create a dynasty like Australia's consecutive 16 test wins :bow:
Stuge Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 ALL hail to poor form of other teams combined with good pitches to support us :D

GrandMasterSaxy Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Sorry to say but you are underestimating the current Indian side. We never had a good bowlers in the past, for the first time I feel the contest would be equal, bowlers and batsmen would perform equally. SA were good at one point of time, at the moment they suck maybe in next 100 years .
Cricketics Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Aise he bulate raho lanka aur Windies ko aur maarte raho :)
Scarves Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Let's create a dynasty like Australia's consecutive 16 test wins :bow: Twice. Australia did that twice. :--D Also I think India will get creamed in South Africa since South Africa will suit home conditions to them and their battling lineup is pretty stacked. Smith, Petersen, Amla, Kallis, AB, Faffers, Duminy and Robin Peterson and Philander are pretty nifty with the bat.
PAA-G Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Yes. All hail Dhoni for the 8-0 loss too. :D Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk +1 some serious drubbing on way for ind by saf....want dhobi retirement after that !!!

Trundler27 Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Not to belittle this streak, but it is almost like how west indies came to India on a 6 match winning streak against NZ, Bang, Zim (2 games each).... look at the golden egg they laid in this series. This just shows the huge gap in quality among test sides at the moment (There is Eng and SA... then there is Ind, Aus..... then there are the rest). The only major difference with our impending tour to SAF is that we are playing the ODIs and a 2 day game before the start of the test series.... Hopefully the results are different for us.
GrandMasterSaxy Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 I am talking about their current form. SA could have won 2-0 against Pakistan instead of drawing the series 1-1. SA Scores in Last 5 test matches Test 1 - 253 & 275/3 Test 2 - 326 & 182/6 Test 3 - 409 Test 4 - 249 & 232 Test 5 - 517 Only once SA managed to score 500+. 5 centuries were scored - 3 by ABDV (and one in 90s), 1 by Amla and 1 double century by Smith. The batsmen (apart from ABDV) are not in a very good form (including Amla). The only worry for India would be SA bowlers Steyn/Philander who are as usual in good form. There has been a decline in SA form since Kirsten left. At what point did they suck? Drew the Tests series' date=' won the ODI series 4-1 and 2-0 in T20 in the UAE. [/quote']
