Sham did you know that it New Zeland 26 years for them to win a test match? It took us, 5. You claim that we beat a team that really had no superstar but regardless it is an accomplishment. Cricket unlike any sports, it is less about skill it is more about technique, patient, shot selection and temperment. Without these 4 things, even superior skills won't get it done. For instance, how do you explain our batsmen getting out to Pathan's inswing ball numerous time in a similar fashion? Lack of ability? No, lack of technique and judgement. Gavaskar himself once said to be a good batsman you need the basic ability to hit the hard which our batsmen do. Nonetheless, the lack in other aspects of batting such as the 4 i mentioned, is accountable for causing the downfall our batsmen. Simply analyse the fashion in which they get out. I hope you will get your answer indoing that.
