Dhoni’s dazzling century saves India the blushes-Don’t count on it at all times.
India right now is riding only on Batting.Even this needs to be tested on bouncy pitches against genuine fast bowlers. Fielding at best is very average.Excepting Suresh Raina,MSD,Gambir and Virat Kohli others seem to be leaden footed. Hitting at the stumps is below par. They average about 3-4 per innings.This area needs to be improved.Less said about catches, the better. Bowling is a cause for worry.Zaheer , despite commentators praising his skills, his ststs. interms of wickets is pathetic.Harbhajan is not consistent, but among the lot he is better.Jadeja is learning.Nehra is a lottery.When you think he is bowling well, he will send no balls, gift runs to the batsmen by pitching short, bowling at a juicy height out side the off stump to the batters.SreeSanth he still does not know when he will bowl well notwithstanding his recent 5 wicket haul. Bowling at the death is very costly. Silver lining is MSD's Captaincy. In short India is yet to be tested.
