give me a break

The media in India is getting on my nerves. We lost one test, ok rather humiliated, and websites of news channels start carrying reports of if should stop playing test matches. It is stupid i say. We were outplayed by a side with 2 world class spinners with them. And it is never easy to chase down a 1st innigs total of 600. And the Lankan's home record is as good as any team to have played the game. Agreed it is a very poor batting display. So relax. We will bounce back, if not in this series the next. Don't put this team down. After all this is one of the best test teams in the world of cricket. Don't give up boys.
