No wides..no noballs

India won a series after a loooooong time and most remarkable statistics for me was the discipline shown by our bowlers in not conceding a single wide/no ball for the entire match in spite of AA and RPS bowling in the match.

Surely, Venkatesh Prasad has to take part of the credit for this.

As per Statsguru , the last time this happened was in 1999-00 season and that was also against SA. So a 7 year old record was met (not broken) and I hope we don't have to wait for another 7 years for this to happen again !
