Re: India vs England: 1st Test Match Lords
^Jaffer/Gangu got into the "Lets play out the day" mode even when more than 25 overs were remaining in the day.
My point is that when you are few wickets down...its better to keep accumulating runs (esp when you are targetting a low score like 298)...instead of "oh...we can't afford to lose anymore wickets...pull down the shutters" approach. This, my friend, is one critical difference between the Indian and Australian school of batting psychology.The way Jaffer was playing, it was only a matter of time before he got out anyways.
I just hope that your hero, Mr Dhoni, does not disappoint you tomorrow.
