CLOSE-IN: Simple Cricketing Sense Does Not Come Through High Fives And Huddles (IANS Column)
India go in to play the final Test match, having lost the series against New Zealand 2-0. It did come as a shocking result, especially as India has the record of the most series wins, 18 at home. This in itself is a huge achievement and one to be admired. The loss did come as a surprise; however, the uncertainty of the great game of cricket had other ideas. Nothing is taken for granted, as one says in cricket.
None of the top Test teams can be taken lightly, as each one of them have players of international standard. Therefore, a defeat against New Zealand is not the end of the world. India is still very much in the fray to qualify for the World Test championship and still lead the ICC rankings. Test cricket requires a completely different approach to the game and New Zealand have managed to outsmart India in their own backyard. Their 2-0 Test series loss against Sri Lanka earlier did make one presume that India will just steamroll over New Zealand with ease.
