INDIA No.1????Not yet

Well the discussion thats going through between all the cricket lovers is that does India deserve to be called the best team in the world right now??
I have my take on this...How do u call India the best team in the world??Wats the criteria??Is it only these 4 series that India have won against the likes of Australia,Srilanka and NewZealand.
I agree that India have a very strong batting line up in conditions where the ball does not swing.But when there is even a bit of help for bowlers from the pitch India fare miserably..The last ODI is a prime example.
People say its a consolation win for NZ.But if u look at the bigger picture,India have still not proven themselves in conditions which are bowler friendly.Look at the way they played in the last ODI as if our so called batting GODS didnt know what was happening??No application whatsoever and it made me feel we have a bunch of inexperienced guys which is definitely not the case.
I still beleive we are going to win the test series as well but i am pretty sure if NZ had the bowling attack that they had when we toured them i bet things would have been very different.
So ponder over this whether we can still debate whether India are No.1 or not???
Australia is still the best side in the world with SA faring badly at home...
South Africa will be a close second and India still the No .3 side in the world and not the best by any means!!!
looking forward for your responses.
