Rahul DravidRawalpindi, venue for the third and deciding test of the historic series, an opportunity for India to win a series abroad after a long gap; can the Indian team hold on to their nerves to win this deciding test? We have seen this team not winning a test series abroad even after showing early promise in the tours of Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka, West Indies, England and recently Australia. But after winning the toss and putting the inexperienced Pakistan batting line up on a green top - it was the ideal start to their tryst towards a test and a series victory.

Pakistan batsmen failed to deliver the goods and fell cheaply to the young Indian brigade of Balaji, Pathan and Nehra. The home side may have been bowled out for a modest 224, but the Indian batsmen had to shield from any complacency and bat Pakistan out of the match. Shoaib Akthar and his team mates may have thought that they had created shivers in the Indian dressing room by sending the dangerous Sehwag back with the first ball.
