Indian cricket team has finally won a match in South Africa. Going by the way they played the one-day series, everyone thought they would have to buy lottery tickets if they were to hope to win anything at all in the tour. However, miracles do happen.
One of the positives of the first test, in my view, was the attitude shown by Sreesanth. I have read somewhere that some of his team-mates don't like his extravagant mannerism and "I don't care shit" attitude. However, ever since Saurav Ganguly was sidelined, there was nobody with such a colorful personality in the team. I really liked the way he responded in kind to Nel, when he hit Nel for a six on the very next ball after being taunted by him. Contrast this with the way Dravid had responded to Allan Donald a few years back in a similar situation. What a difference!
We really need some bad guys in the team to keep it vibrant and colorful.
