Forget it! India won the series.

Cricket analysts will argue till cows come home about whether Rahul Dravid did the right thing by not enforcing the follow-on on England in the Oval Test. He is our captain and comes with a great cricketing brain. Let's credit him with the flexibility to decide what's best for the team. All of us have the advantage of looking back now but Dravid had to make the decision then - at that moment.

The fact remains that India won the Test series - after 21 years. This is the most important statistics future will remember. I would only say - 1-0 is good enough - 2-0 would have been great but no problem. :-)
