Good contest.Indians were very good.Taking nothing away from the refreshing victory , but surely Indians can improve their fielding skills.It''s been quite poor in this series ,but the other aspects were very pleasing, notwithstanding the 2nd test 1st innings collapse.Ironically though, it was probably SA''s fielding on the third day of this test that let India win.If Sreeshant''s catch in the slip had been taken by Mackenzie ,SA could have got a bigger 2nd innings lead.Sree,Ishant and Bhajji were terrific as was Sourav.

Hey Mickey, Did u see what happened? You can claim whatever u want but u guys still cant play spin on a typical Indian wicket. Playing spin on a flat track ( Chennai )and a green top (Ahmedabad) doesn''t count And btw what happened to your plan of attacking the spinners. Looked like ur players were glued to the crease!!!!!!

India did win, and won handsomely. Bravo. Inspite of all the odds, losing Kumble before the match, losing the toss and having to field when the pitch was at its best, India surmounted all these obstacles and emerged victorious. Fantastic victory. Kudos to the whole team. Marvellous team effort.

We won’t allow spinners to dominate Now what, Micky Arthur? We did not see you moving the ball from hand to hand as you did in the second test! You should have padded up yourself for a change. That would have completed the Micky Arthur series. Talk is too cheap. Cry a bit and you would be home soon! South Africa is still a good team but not comparable to the Aussies, like it or not. Thank you, Micky!

hey,mick u guys have done a wonderful job and have shown positive attitude even though ur bowlers were demolished by a lone battler i.e.,viru. winning in the spin track that too very alien is appreciable considering ur success in the sub-continent,but hey,dont u forget that the INDIANS have point to prove to when there no match winners like sachin and kumble,watch out micky the tide is wating to lash against u guys to win the series in the land of tigers,beware!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Micky - your writing wreaks arrogance. Please don''t forget - you coach the same South Africa which hasn''t won a meaningful Test or ODI series since they returned to cricket. The eternal chokers - you will no doubt live up to that reputation. And please don''t talk about the pitch, have you seen the pitches you guys dish out when we tour????

India will lose this match. Except for the seniors, the others are play a test match as if they are playing a 20-20 match.
