India Vs SA first test...

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 :)
