Test cricket deserves better

A match that could, and should, have been fought to a rousing finish was allowed to meander to a miserable stalemate

23-Dec-2008•Andrew Miller

Fortune favours the cautious

A two-Test rubber was always going to sell this series short, but only now do we get an idea of quite how short

22-Dec-2008•Andrew Miller

Yuvraj spurred by banter

The confidence with which Yuvraj Singh batted on the fourth evening went a long way towards eliminating the slim possibility of an Indian defeat

22-Dec-2008•S Aga

India treated to the real KP

Pietersen made a statement to be remembered, battering India's bowlers at a tempo that none of their own players had been able, or willing, to replicate in their own first innings

21-Dec-2008•Andrew Miller

Defensive Dhoni stalls Pietersen's charge

Had England gone to stumps with just the four wickets down, Mahendra Singh Dhoni would most likely have been excoriated for his negativity

21-Dec-2008•S Aga

Wanted: A miracle

Andrew Flintoff was as hostile as ever, but England may already need a miracle to win this Test

20-Dec-2008•Andrew Miller

In August company

The only difference was the absence of a voluble crowd, especially on the Western Terrace. Otherwise, the first day of the second Test between India and England in Mohali, could have been a facsimile of the opening day at Headingley in August 2002.

19-Dec-2008•S Aga

India must be wary of backlash

Given that Mohali pitches tend to have a bit more bounce than other Indian ones, Harmison should survive the cull, and with two spinners a necessity rather than a luxury, it should be Anderson who sits out

18-Dec-2008•S Aga

India spinning into a crisis?

It's up to Harbhajan Singh and Amit Mishra to prove that they can at least partially fill the breach left by Anil Kumble's retirement

17-Dec-2008•Dileep Premachandran

'It had to have been preordained'

With the Mumbai atrocities still fresh in the mind, the incredible chase, and Tendulkar's fourth-innings century made everybody smile - and not just Indians

17-Dec-2008

Optimism and oblivion

It would have been thoughtless cricket from England if Sehwag's abilities hadn't been factored into their calculations today, but it was equally thoughtful that they succeeded in avoiding the trap of trying to bat at his inimitable tempo

14-Dec-2008•Andrew Miller

Bold England defy the script

Both wickets and runs have had to be earned in this match. Which is how it should be in Test cricket

13-Dec-2008•Sambit Bal in Chennai

Dravid's form beyond a slump

Rahul Dravid is a modern great but his goodwill account is depleting fast

12-Dec-2008•Sambit Bal

Underdogs England bank on Anderson

Statistical preview of the two-Test series between India and England

10-Dec-2008•Siddhartha Talya

England's Danish import

His path to the England squad has taken in Denmark, Kent, and a career-threatening knee injury. A look at the rise of a quick bowler with a fascinating story

09-Dec-2008•Andrew McGlashan

Ten ways to win in India

South Africa's coach has had a fair amount of success in Asia. He offers England ten tips for success in their Tests in India

07-Dec-2008•Mickey Arthur

Comfort zone to hell-hole

One established or family-oriented cricketer's unacceptable risk is another eager young player's golden opportunity

05-Dec-2008•Fazeer Mohammed

Stay or go?

Should England return to India for the rest of their series in the wake of the Mumbai attacks?

01-Dec-2008

Calm Dhoni commands strong force

Nothing appears to fluster Mahendra Singh Dhoni, and that serene air is contagious. He doesn't indulge in any histrionics, but his players undoubtedly know who's in charge

23-Nov-2008•Cricinfo staff

Poor light cast on cricket

The nonsense of the finish provided a postscript to the result. England would almost certainly have lost had the match gone its distance, but India weren't entirely settled at 198 for 5. Those lost nine overs could still have made the difference between a
