I will make one slight correction there. True the batters performed better in the ODIs but the bowling mediocrity still stood out:

• 1st ODI at Chester-le-Street 272/4 in 50 overs - batters did their job but **looking at the indian bowling, England probably would have won if not for rain
  **- 2nd ODI at The Rose Bowl, Southampton: 187/8 in 23 overs (RR: 8.13) - **indian bowlers failed
  **- 3rd ODI at The Oval: 234/7 in 50 overs - **indian batting failed **except for Dhoni and Jadeja
• 4th ODI @ Lord’s: 280/5 in 50 overs - should have been a winning score but **indian bowlers failed
• **5th ODI at Cardiff: 304/6 in 50 overs **- indian bowlers failed

**BCCI needs to declare a state of emergency against declining bowling standards in the country

But what will most likely happen is India will prevail 4-1 or 3-2 over England in home conditions next month and then everything will be forgotten!!

I have been unable to catch most of the action, but I will take your word on it.

Will the Indian bowling ever become more than just a supporting act to the batting power?
