Definitely, our batting is improving in all the grounds pointed here.
Bowling is not as impressive though. This shows avg runs we have given away per wk.

2009 was the greatest of all (WI tour?). But 2010 is not great so far. I will wait till the end of 2010 though to conclude.
I don't want to pose excuses like we are lacking Mash, in form Raj.... and we playing on flat tracks these days etc... We definitely need more improvements on bowling for sure.
But, I am sure for test we are improving on both bowling and batting.
