    Just like I said earlier, if Kohli does not stay longer, nothing goes right.
    Things were not bad, score was good, Rahane and Dhawan should have applied themselves to stay there as the score was moving well. Instead one after the other, went for wild shots.
    These type of batting from these good players, shows it will take them longer to be S.T.\Dravid\ Gangully and others. They should take the situation seriously, even if it is a warm up game.
    See the debacle once they were out...!!! Rest fell like ten pin after that.

    Come on guys!!! Buck up!!!
