A Humdinger of a Test

This final test is test cricket at its very best. To my surprise, the Indian team is no longer a weak team who are susceptible to verbal disintgeration. Contrastingly, they have given it back as good as they've got. I personally feel that the South Africans are making things tougher for themselves by going hard at Sreesanth and Zaheer when the duo came out to bat. Sreesanth reacted well to his verbal battle with Smith, while Zaheer always loves to engage one. The last time Team India got involved into such a heated banter was in England in 2007. The englishmen were guilty of throwing jelly beans by the pitchside which irked Zaheer. Zaheer then responded with a match winning performance with the ball which took India to an overseas victory. I hope the same transpires this time too.
