One cannot justify dropping Sree in this game. We need players who are striking th rhythm to be nurtured and allowed to flourish rather than cling onto marauders of the past and expect for a revival. Sehwag ?????? I get to feel that he is not determined or focussed enough. One who is focussed and determined can still stick around and scratch and graft runs as Steve Waugh has shown on numerous occasions even when the form and luck has deserted them. Clearly this is the case of attitude !

why are you worried now? could you find the reason of dropping sourav in Chennai ODI at a very good batting pitch which otherwise could give him a chance to be the highest scorer in that series like the same he did in SA test.

Absolutely !! I do agree with you. At times these guys chop and drop just for the sake of doing so. Why cant the best 11 on the day take the field ? Are we sooo unprofessional ?!!!

any order he canot play why dont you understand. he is there for the money.
There is one player who has been creating countless butterflies in the stomache for world's best bowlers who are gearing up for the World Cup campaign: Saurav Ganguly. The dreaded Dada is back and how!!! The best comeback in the history of world cricket. Giving mammothsize guilt feelings to those selectors who ditched him last year, Dada is doing a splendid job at the moment and we can safely say, about three more years superb cricket still lies in him.

When we talked, performance and form matters for Ganguly's exclusion from the team, Sehwag should be should necessarily given a "Break". Often players from West and North get preferential treatment. Hats off Dada for your valiant innings. Keep going and regain the captaincy at the earliest and silence your hard core critics.

Kiron more Guru Greg & co should be snatched to court for deleting one important late stage year from the career of Dada. To add salt to it few players had been threatened for calling him a good player. This specifies Indian cricket is totally controlled by politicians and bussiness houses.
it is better to take suresh raina instead of shewag. taking shewag indian team is trying their luck and not concentrating on the stratagies. remember this is not regualar match, we have to plan to win the world cup. also by not selecting kaif...indian team slector have not made a right decission.

Sehwag not doing well is fine ! May i know what makes you propose Kaif? He has been given a lot of chances too.....yeah ! agreed he gaves a couple of victories to india along with Yuvraj ! That doesnt give him the luxury to underperform over a period of 12-15months !
