Who would have thought that one day indian cricket team would win a test match with their strength in bowling department especially fast bowling. Indian bowlers showed more character and took all the 20 england wickets in both the innings. An inexperienced team pulled of a historic win under Mahendra Singh Dhoni's captaincy. His timely decisions and bold techniques helped the team to be always on top in the entire match. It is a win for indian cricket team at Lord's cricket ground in test matches since 1986. Its certainly a day to remember as this team has shown the world that they are ready to show what they are capable of in the original cricket format and they do mean business.
