    Arrange P, Q, R, S to give the correct sequence of the report.
    P: India seemed to have a player just when he was needed, and it was rather dramatically apparent in the last Test where the soft spoken   and   oft-forgotten   Cheteshwar Pujara played an innings of great skill and application. Pujara seems to approach life with the seriousness of an economist and in the first innings on a wonderfully seamer- friendly track at the Sinhalese Sports Club, it was a quality to savour.
    Q: Ashwin took many giant strides forward as a bowler and a disappointing step back as a batsman. Like his tall, long-haired friend, he surpassed himself. But we must say that the Sri Lankans produced excellent pitches and the players delivered memorable cricket. If India's curators can do that, we have a thrilling season of Test cricket ahead.
    R: But having three bowlers in great form is a gift few teams have. That one of them is a fast bowler is, if anything, a luxury even if he is someone who has caused people to tear their hair in frustration. We saw that great spell young Ishant produced against Ponting in 2008. Over the next seven years, it remained a solitary jewel in his crown. After Sri Lanka, Ishant has a second jewel.
    S: An away win has been a long time coming.
    Like controlling inflation and preventing food wastage, it was considered unattainable in recent times. But as with the other two problems, intent and belief is often the key in sport and we saw a lot of that in Sri Lanka; even though letting the first Test slip was something only an inept policeman in a movie would have allowed.
