Yesterday's loss drained a lot of energy. It was depressing.
that i completely agree..as an indian fan, it has to be extremely depressing. After 245 for 2, india shd have either won or drew the game considering how straight the pitch was. Losing was not on cards and it must be really depressing. Sorry Uncle
for example? can you please explain..did you see the match live?
almost all decisions went against indians..in the first innings, saha was clealry not out...dhawan in Ist innings was not out as well...and then rahanay in 2nd innings was not out.
Saw Murali not given out, others:

Marais Erasmus was Lyon's bane, failing to give Vijay lbw when he did not offer a shot on 24 and 64, and Kohli on 85.

Valiant effort by Kohli but he was badly let down by the lower middle order. At 240 odd for 2, India really should have won - which would have done wonders for their confidence in this series - or at least drawn the game. To score a hundred in each innings of an away test is no mean achievement. Over the years we have seen many batsmen score hundreds in both innings of a test match but they have usu. done it in a home series. Adelaide is Australia's batting paradise and India squandered a golden chance to win imo. Credit to Clarke as well for a sporting declaration on a good batting surface.

What is the use?India lost.These centuries in both the innings has become good for nothing.At the end of the day result that matters,whether you score double or triple or centuries

it shows his class and it is not his fault that the rest of the batters did not support him. Like Asif said it is a team game but you cant take away Kohli's brilliance.

ehsan Bhai,I have a different opinion in this.At a time he was leading India to a victory,that SHE attempted a shot that too in an over that had already produced a six and a four.Kohli being the captain should have asked that Saha moron to play sensibly.This is his fault.Again after losing Saha's wicket ,Kohli got out .He should have kept his cool and moved on,which he did not do.Kohli did Sachin ,like the latter did in 1999 Chennai test against your team.
Atleast Kohli should have thought,acted and played sensibly.

You can call this his captaincy weaknesses which by the passage of time will correct itself. However that has got nothing to do with his batting abilities.
