It was not always on the card.

ya...really. even if we had lost 2 more wickets (e.g. Ash and Mash), we could stay their for another 20 overs for a draw. as you mentioned how we ended up in 90 runs or 122/7 in 38 overs, i can say also 79 runs partnership for around 20 ovres. their is always positive and negative, whichever you choose. And if you are happy with a draw, then shouldnt be, it was for the rain. Rain and Dravid gave us a opportunity to win a almost lost game (if it was 5 days and considering our 1st innings) and pathetially we didnt even try till end. jsut shamefull mentallity.
