A clean sweep for a six over deep midwicket off Peterson of the 1st ball of the last over by Dinesh Karthik , following 3 singles sealed an emphatic Indian victory at a time when the whole team is under tremendous pressure from an ordinary cricket fan to parliamentarians. Although, this was a maiden outing for Team India on this format of the game, but believe you all they accomplished this mission by rightfully Applying themselves and doing the basics right, this is what all required in the larger version of the game. It was nice to see the Indian bowlers restricting the South Africans to a modest total of 126, then stand-in captain making a quickfire 34 and Dinesh Mongia 38 laid the platform, Sachin and Dhoni disappointed once again and it was left to Karthik to do the rest who later won the Master Blaster Award. This will certainly prove to be a morale boosting win for Indians, now they should move to the last ODI with courage and determination, leaving behind The series loss and try to win the game in view of the Test matches. TEST ARENA: The induction of VVS Laxman and former captain Sourav Ganguly will bolster the Indian side as both possess experience to bat on fast tracks of South Africa, for Laxman a player who the Chairman of BCCI had earlier expressed that he has having fitness problems is straightaway not only Included but made the Vice Captain demoting Virendra Sehwag, astonishing indeed………………….!!!!!!!!!!! And for Ganguly it’s a matter of salvaging His lost pride, time will only tell how is he going to take the challenge.
