About a follow on
A lead of 320 , with cloud covering the skies ,prodigious swing on the cards ,with 3 good swing bowlers in the team , a captain on his mission to win the test and he decides to bat again. Doesn't this look like an anticlimax?Sadly Yes. The captain is Rahul Dravid who scored 12 off 96 balls in 2nd innings.This decision wiil be much debated and some willl say that he did it as History suggested that England could have turned the tables on India if he were to follow on.History says many things , it says of India's poor record overseas , about melting under pressure and so on. When are we going to change histoty ? When we will wite hostory? It was Captain's call but with the team that he has I thik he should have written the History rather than taking lessons from it. England will battle out on 5th day and if they survive we will say rahul didint give follow on and rest is History.
