With this they extended their undefeated run from the 20-20 World cup and reiterated their dominance on this format of the game. For many, this victory came as a soothing balm to apply over the wound left over by the series loss at the hands of the Aussies while for the multitude it was a last laugh & a divine providence of sorts!
Following the humiliation suffered from the defeat in the one day series, India had finally some moments to savor and some consolation to take back.

The ICC World Twenty20 or ICC World T20 also referred to as the T20 World Cup is the international championship of Twenty20 cricket. The event is organised by the sport's governing body, the International Cricket Council (ICC). The tournament consists of 16 teams in which all the ten ICC Full Members are automatically qualified and the remaining six spots will be contested through ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier. The event is held every two years.
The inaugural event, the 2007 ICC World Twenty20, was staged in South Africa from 11–24 September 2007. The tournament was won by India, who became the first World T20 Champions after defeating Pakistan by 5 runs in the final at Johannesburg. The second event, the 2009 ICC World Twenty20 took place in England from 5–21 June 2009. This tournament was won by the previous runners-up Pakistan who defeated Sri Lanka by 8 wickets in the final at Lord's, London.[1] The third Twenty20 World Tournament was held from 30 April–16 May 2010 and hosted by the West Indies. The winners were England who defeated Australia by 7 wickets in the final at Kensington Oval, Barbados. This was the first ever ICC tournament won by England.
India’s fitness and media management is appalling
Zaheer Khan has been ruled out of the rest of the series against England, that includes a further two Test matches and five ODIs that he could have played. The reason behind this is a new ankle injury to go with his hamstring issue.
Interestingly, on the first day of the first Test match against the English side, Zaheer Khan had suffered from a hamstring injury and quite laughably the Indian management had announced that Zaheer would be fit to play in the second innings of the first Test match.
Now it is revealed that he will miss the entire series, forget playing in the first game.
This will mean that the side will now be handicapped and will struggle through the third Test match as well.
The bigger question is that is the Indian team’s media and fitness management so appalling that they cannot for one, diagnose the ailment and secondly pass on the right information to the fans?
This is nothing short of taking the fans for granted, just like the pair of Ravi Shastri and Sunil Gavaskar have often taken their fans for granted. Time for everything to change.
