"Walia denies communication gap within Indian team"

	GS Walia, the India media manager, said that the team was concerned about what the media was writing

GS Walia, India's media manager on tour in Australia, addressed the press on behalf of the team to try to douse reports of a communication breakdown between the senior players. Not the captain, coach, senior players or team manager, but the media manager was entrusted with a responsibility of such delicate nature.

To quote Walia verbatim in certain matters might still be unfair because he often exceeded the brief of a media manager. Once, to a question if certain earlier press conferences this tour had affected the team, Walia said, "Certainly… [all] facts were given to the nation. I don't want to get into why it happened. Let us all be positive."

Back to the beginning. Walia began by saying there had been no communication gap, but when reminded of Virender Sehwag's comments that MS Dhoni had given him and the press two entirely different reasons for resting the seniors, Walia kept repeating the phrase, "Let's not analyse it further."

What makes it a serious matter is that Sehwag saidDhoni had told him he was resting the seniors because he wanted the young players to get more experience and chances. But in a press conferenceDhoni said playing all three senior batsmen together would cost the side an extra 20 runs in the field. Sehwag didn't

Mahela is the Man of the Match: "I probably got more of the strike than Dilly, and it was one of those days when most of your shots went to the gaps. One side of the ground is smaller, so it was a tough ground to defend on. The youngsters are learning a lot from these games. We are top of the table, but we still need to do a lot of hard work."

Clarke: "Unfortunately we couldn't get over the line, but full credit to Sri Lanka. Our execution with the ball wasn't good. The top four could do better. SL showed tonight that if you hang in, you can take it home. I am still a bit stiff in the back, but I will be fine. Big game for us against India in Sydney."
