Karl marvels at a thrilling series

Six games. Pakistan won 4 games to India's 2. Pakistan scored 1685 runs (average: 281 per game) and lost 49 wickets. India scored 1558 runs (average 260 per game) and lost 49 wickets. Five innings totals were over 300 (with another at 298). The play from all players on both sides was marvellous and it was a thrilling contest up to the last match. The last match was an anti-climax though with the crowd throwing objects onto the pitch.

While India didn't win the series, John Wright finished his coaching stint with them on a high note, producing a thrilling competitive series.
