You keep counting the runs aggregate and the hundreds, I will count
the number of clutch innings.

If there was any doubt before, surely none exists now.

VVS - take a bow!

VVS Laxman would have been the 2nd best test player ever for India had he
been given his favorite No.3 position in test cricket from the beginning.

But surely Laxman is the best Indian test player in pressure situations with
match winning innings......

This I agree and have maintained ever since Lax debuted in
96...remember only he was there with Sachin during Desert Storm...He
is India's no:3...Dravid must voluntarily give his position to Lax

Well he certainly loves playing against Australia.

At his best, there is NO-ONE more fluent. Well maybe with the
exception of Yousuf.

Australia have a long history of losing very close Tests. I was not
confident when it was down to 10 runs for the last wicket.

Congratulations to both sides on a magnificent Test match that could
not have been any more closely fought.

Closely fought it was, but I am not sure about the magnificent part.
Both sides bowled poorly in the first innings and Aussies batted
poorly too. Bowling improved in the second innings, thanks to a
deteriorating pitch. And a match that seemed headed to either a draw
or Indian win on third evening came alive thanks to an utterly
inexplicable, thoughtless, careless, gutless hour of batting. Plus the
numerous umpiring errors.

A pretty mediocre test match overall.

Subirwa aka Paji bhai,

Sydney 167, Kolkat 281, Adelaide 144, Mumbai 67 to name a few were scored
batting in the top order....

First Indian One Day International match win against Pakistan in Pakistan in
Lahore was won by Laxman's hundred batting at #3.

Just eat your words and ACCEPT Laxman is the BEST CLUTCH INDIAN PLAYER
EVER........no ifs and buts

You must be a hard man to please Mohan. Agreed the umpiring was awful.

Not really. Let's not forget that some people here were calling this a
borefest on D3. Sure it was a thrilling climax, but that doesn't make
the entire match great.

Yes, every frontline batsman becomes greatest after staying till the
end.
Like Sachin against Eng in 2008 or Raina against SL in 2010.
What a great logic!

Never mind the fact, its a team game and it took making 621 runs and
taking 20
wickets for India to win the game.

Great logic, dude, totally expected from you.

Was there any doubt? Laxman the Great for President of India. I love
him. He is my favorite Indian batsman, period. Lakshmanaaa..
