Hell yes, India takes Test 1.
It's a shame Sourav will be out for Test 2, but from the looks of things maybe we won't need him?

That atleast the players playing for their respective teams have some loyalty to it, and don't jump around from team to team when someone offers more money. I bet all those Indian players in the Indian team feel some hometown/country pride when their team wins. Do you think Sammy Sosa feels any hometown pride when the Chicago Cubs win? Does it matter what team Michael Jordan plays for? How is the Lakers team related to LA other than the name, LA Lakers? Would it have been any different if it was the Houston Lakers and had the same players? The Houston Oilers just picked up and moved to another city. Did it matter to them at all?
