India's first test loss to Australia

Towards the end of the test, Indian tailenders put up a brave fight (Probably we should not call them tailenders, as they are batting more sensible than our renowned top order)
By the fourth day, I was hoping for a draw. Especially when the Australians went into defensive as the wickets kept falling, I wish we should have kept their tailenders at the crease till tea time. Some times, playing negatively helps. Isnt it?
McGrath, on his team plan later, hinted that they were shooting for around 500 runs lead (Probably still in shock of Kolkata test).

If that happened, probably we would not have lost 4 wickets by end of day 4 and we might have drawn the match.
Typical Indian cricket fan :)
