I must say I'm pleasantly surprised, India aren't known for attacking declarations. With the 1-0 series lead, had expected India to bat perhaps till lunch to kill off the game. Dhoni's declaration though sets up what should be an intriguing final day, West Indies have 83 overs to bat out/chase down the target.

Indian fans clearly loving it. Varun: "Awesome stuff MSD.That's the difference as far as I'am concerned between the team under MS and the rest.Go for a win India.You can do it"

Vijay: "Wow!!! the declaration has come finally. its a brave decision by Dhoni. the new generation captain."

Podds:"This declaration is a sign of a confident India. I would never have seen this declaration before lunch or over a lead of 300 a few years ago. Well done regardless of the result. "

Yomesh: "Is that the sign of being the Number One test team?"

Bhargava: "Unlike the old days, they have confidence in their pacers now. Hence the aggressive declaration."

Aditya: "I think this is more Duncan Fletcher's influence. Even MS is not known to be this attacking. Good stuff. Even if we lose I'll be happy. At least the Test match would be interesting."

Sanjeev NC:"This man is AWESOME! This was sure to be a drawn match and now Dhoni has given WI a sniff as much as he's given his own team! It's gonna be a interesting day of Test cricket!"

Also, to D Ramapriya and others wondering where Pujara is, he has still not recovered from his knee injury, that's why he misses out on the England tour.
