Who Said Test Match Cricket Was Dead?

There’s something about test matches on the subcontinent that breathes life back into the test format. The glitzy, smash-and-grab, swashbuckling T20 format has taken so much of the focus off the five day game; but with the fifth day drama at Mohali there’s no doubt that this is still the premier form of cricket. Even the Aussies, with their tough-as-nails character, are struggling in the biggest test of them all: overcoming the Indian moxie in their own back yard.

The win puts the Indians 1-0 up in the two-match series. Defeat in the second will certainly dent Australian pride ahead of the forthcoming Ashes series. Bring on Bangalore!
