``It was a disappointing wicket,'' said Taylor, as Australia crumbled for 182 and 234 against the Indian spinners.
``I have played 70-odd tests in my career, but never seen such a wicket where the ball was grounded most of the time,'' he said.
His Indian counterpart Sachin Tendulkar, celebrating a win in his first test as captain, said his side was hungry for further success.
``One win is not enough,'' the 23-year-old said. ``The boys are in an aggressive mood.
``We have made the entire country happy by this victory, and I am confident we will continue winning from here.''
Taylor and Tendulkar conceded Indian wicket-keeper Nayan Mongia's monumental 152 in the first innings dictated the course of the match.
``Mongia was superb,'' Taylor said. ``He showed that the wicket demanded more patience.
``I think we lost the game on the first day itself when we were bowled out for 182.''
Tendulkar said it was ``the most important innings'' of Mongia's career.
``He proved himself with the new ball,'' he said, defending his decision to have the wicket-keeper open the innings.
``One should be prepared to do anything in international cricket.''
Tendulkar said he was now looking forward to doing well in the one-day series against Australia and South Africa which starts on Thursday.
``I am not worried about my form just because I got out cheaply in both innings,'' he said.
``There's a lot of cricket left this season and I should be among the runs soon.''
Taylor expectedly rued the absence of star spinner Shane Warne and the fact that Australia were underprepared for the test match.
``If Shane had been there we would have had the best spinner in the world. We were unlucky on that count.
``But I don't think we were ready for this test because there have been only one-dayers since March. There was not enough practice of the longer game, '' Taylor said.
