Hi

I have a match Phrase Nest query as given below

sd = new SearchDescriptor();  
sd.From(0);  
sd.Size(10);

sd.Query(q =\>  
q.MatchPhrase(m =\> m  
.Field(p =\> p.title)  
.Query("Test Article in Credit")  
));  
The above query gives me two documents

while if I extract raw query json from it and test using fiddler as below  
{  
"query": {  
"match\_phrase": {  
"title": {  
"query": "Test Article in Credit"  
}  
}  
}  
}

then I get 5 documents

I am not sure what I am missing in my nestclient query.....Could anybody provide any direction
