We won in SA, right in their backyard. Our bowlers did very well (except VRV Singh). Hope we continue the winning streak and erase the memories of the one dayers.

We need more of that aggression..(but within the limits of the spirit of the game)...reminds me of heroics of 'DADA' durng his 'GLEE' days..

Interestingly, the major contributors to this win are the ones joining the team AFTER the one day series.

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers: ..to the boys for the historic win.

India recorded thier first ever test win over pakistan AFTER 49 years?...am I missing something in the story..maybe senior CDs (in age not no. of posts) can shed some light on this statistic..

If it is true, then IT IS a matter for shame...:(

It could be true. Remeber when Srikanth & his Team came back after Drawing all Three Tests - It was marked as an Achievment.

And its not Shame if you keep "Shakur Rana" & all other 12ht & 13th Man in Picture.

It was always 13 v/s 11 players.

Take into consideration the number of years india and pakistan did not have any cricketing ties and then the 49 years will make some sense as 21 test in 49 years cant be.....

Maharaj is right. Rana was a notorious umpire. Once Sunny commented that he could beat the world XI if he had Rana on his side.

The two countries did not play each other for a long time. When started, some of our spinners were on the verge of retirement or retired (Bedi, Chandra, Prasanna, Venkat). Remember the Blore test when Qadir and Qasim did the damage? Not to forget Pak had very good fast/swing bowlers.
