The "best innings", we can describe as Sehwag spent the whole of the last year out of the Test side but returned with two outstanding hundreds in consecutive Tests.Exactly four years earlier Sehwag started his other epic (309 against Pakistan in Multan), this is the one of the best innnings in test cricket you can see.Sehwag has the record of having 2 triple hundreds and shares the record with Sir.Donald Bradman and Lara the best we have seen in this era.

An Equally team effort by SA with the bat and ball has denied the victory for India.
A team which is not that used to playing spin bowling has done really well played
the Indian spinners with ease thanks to Amla and Mckenzie and good middle order batting helped the cause for SA.

A Well made Hundred by Dravid 111 and a beautiful partner ship with Sehwag has made India put in a good reply to SA's 540 in the first Innnings, mean while Dravid crossed 10,000 runs and became the sixth batsman to do this in the international cricket, who already has 10,000 plus runs in the One days. Match would have been more interesting has there been a result.

Hopefully next test in Ahmedabad gives a result positively in India's favour :)

India produced a remarkable performance in final to beat South Africa by 12 runs under the Duckworth-Lewis method for their second ICC Under-19 World Cup since 2000 at the Kinrara Oval in Kuala Lumpur.A proud team which cannot be stopped by any even the rain gods are in the mood of celebrating after their emphatic win.

Set a victory target of 160 runs in 50 overs and later revised to 116 in 25 overs due to the two-hour rain stoppage, it has been a challenging moment for the South Africans when the second innings resumed.South Africa had slumped to 17-3 before the first drop of rain fell on the Oval but failed to get started on an aggressive note.Earlier in the day, a maiden from Parnell in the first over spelt a gloomy start for India with the exception of Srivastava as they found the going tough and never really had it in them to get back on track.

Finally it was a beautiful display by young Indian team to defeat SA in the finals and showed that they can handle pressure well and won the series.Dav Whatmore coach of Under 19 team is very happy with the teams performance and very impressed with the talent that is available in India.

Jubiliant Indian team won the series on Australian soil after 23 years.Thanks to the Australian team for making it possible (they lost the battle bcoz of Concentrating more on off field activities rather than on cricket), this is possible only because of the brilliant display by Indian team, and how they carried themselves on and off the field, specially after the number of contoversies they were involved in Australia.

It was a superb display by youngsters and a legend batsman showing and guiding the young batting line up, with two master knocks in the two finals.Will this be the curtains for Dravid and Ganguly in the near term in ODI's??.The way Dhoni leads the team through out the series and the maturity in handling the resources is commendable.

To mention a few performances Rohit Sharma a good knocks in the finals, helping tendulkar on his way to a hundred and a match winning knock. A good bowling display by bhajji and praveen kumar helped India clinch the first final.India this time on Australia handled the media well and more over the unity in the team has helped India win the series.
