A magnificent square cut by Sachin Tendulkar! The maestro's arms went up in the air! The dressing room stood up and rejoiced. The fans cheered as India won its 7th consecutive test at Kotla in style. 6.2 Overs was all it took on the final day for India to wrap things up.

It was a test match where India dominated and always looked in control except for a brief period on Day 2 when India lost some wickets in quick succession, but thanks to a wonderful partnership between Dhoni and Laxman India once again had a upper hand on the match. Anil Kumble could not have asked for a better start as captain as he led from the front rightfully earning the title of Man of Match. An excellent team effort where everyone chipped in and make the job look easy.
