SPECIAL COMMENTARY OF DAY 1: From The Telegraph

The Sehwag way is no less entertaining than the Gangam style, but it was Pujara who, with a Dravid-like stance, caught the eye with his mature-yet-brisk run-making. :tup

Graeme Swann thrived on the Motera track just as a SWAN takes to water, but the England team as a whole, it appears, are nothing but a DEAD DUCK in the first Test, which began here on Thursday. :wall

When two hounds fall short in hunting down the rabbit, it’s common sense to add a third. But England captain Alastair Cook showed the audacity of employing just one hunter while chasing the lion. Going with a lone spinner in Swann to demolish the Indian batting line-up, that too on an Indian pitch, is a certain shortcut to defeat. More so when your pace attack lacks the Glenn McGraths and the Wasim Akrams. :skd
