First test with Proteas ends!

It was a South Africa's tour Of India,The first test was scheduled at Nagpur and As usual,It was highly expected from the Indian players since they were No.1 side in the test team,and hope they will be more confident after a couple of wins over Bangladesh,But the things got changed,from 6/2 India never got a chance back into the game due to the flawless batting from Amla and Kallis,Indian bowlers felt very very difficult to pick wickets.Amla was at his best and remained not out till the end,and some how proteas declared with a score over 500 making things difficult for India,as the same happened In-form gambhir got out without getting a good score,and somehow Sehwag got his 100 and Badrinath on his first appearance got his maiden 50,and after that India did not see any big contributions and were forced for follow-on,at least they should have come back,but no! once again Gambhir getting out very early and this time sehwag did not do much and Sachin getting his 46 century was making every Indian happy! and once again no big contributions! that saw India loosing the game and South Africa winning the game with an innings to spare...will meet @ eden gardens!
