Sachin is often accused of being selfish. The acusers certainly have some merit, but what about Federer? He has won all the titles for himself, and none for his country.
We are quite prepared for the exclusion of Dravid, Laxman and Kumble(he has retired from ODI)and also Jafar(bad form). But Saurav has contributed runs and that also at a fast rate in the recently played ODIs. Hence the surtprise and indignation by all over India(not only in WB). He should be retained and Robin can be given a chance later. Pawar can easily put pressure on the selectors. abmehta

You Just shut up. Just do your own darshan in mirror and then write something. One must use brain and good sense shall prevail before writting on rediff.

Ganguly is dropped from One day. In 2007 Sachin scored 1425 Run at 47 AVG. Ganguly Scored 1240 Runs at 43 Avg.
Ganguly is dropped because of Batting in last four series and slow fielding
FutureCup 3matches- 73 RUNs-No-24.33 Avg--V BAD. ENGLAND 7matches-249runs--35.57Avg--OK, NOT BAD AUSIES 5matches-127 runs--31.75Avg-- BAD. PAK---4 matches-89 Runs--22.25Avg--Very BAD.

Well, Dropping Saurav Ganguly is not all justified.. Even players like Dhoni should be dropped... Especially off the test team where he is a complete failure.. inclusion of players like Dinesh Karthik is also not justified when Parthiv Patel has been scoring at an average above 50 in the Ranji matches.. I think we need a change...IN THE BCCI Board and in the Selection committee.. :)
There are legends and people belonging to different category. They are Jewels of nation. It is duty of every citizen to respect them and be positive on them & their contributions. They are like Leander Paes, Karnam Malleswari, P. T. Usha, Jafar Iqbal, Dhanraj, Baichung Butia, Rajyavardhan Rathore, Sachin, Saurav, Dravid, Kumble, Kapil, Amitabh Bachchan, Madhuri Dixit. They have brought smiles on lips of billions of citizens and proud moments. They held the tricolour high on many occasion in the playground of world. Aren't people like Rasul and Devdass degrading them and dishonouring them by their words ?? Aren't they ashamed doing so ?? Can you compare the DESHBHAKTI of Mahatma Gandhi and Netaji, Bhagat Singh and Rajguru, Tilak and Gokhle by saying - sir this leader was better fighting for country. Then how you can make a comparision by dirtiest possible words between players who also gave their sweat for country and brought you proud and happy moment ?? Aren't you insulting them??
Stop this. If you want to say something, say in right spirits. Healthy comments are fine but targeting someone based on region and religion is highly condemned. ENJOY HAPPY DISCUSSIONS .......

Saying Sachin is better than Ganguly is non patriotic? Incidentally you have left out VishyAnand,Gavaskar,VijayAmirthraj and many others!

@ Devdass, Here I agree Sachin is better then Saurav...but say it in dignified manner.

Same thing again, De Udaas. You have still not got the essence of his post. Will we never come out of this "Only Sachin is Great", "Only Sourav is Excellent", "Only Dhoni is Marvellous" shit? Are we so narrow - minded & regional?

Everything can not be looked at only national level. Players can be compared and nothing dirty or wrong about it. Ranking players is universaly accepted practice!

Of course you will remain dirty mind. You are those type who like only bullfighting. No answers to this but just to tell you that it is not possible to write all names...I have touched not only cricket but many fields. Read carefully, it it for all those who has brought laurels to country and made us a proud Indian...

I entirely agree. Sometimes the boarders use very derogatory language. By this their argument, even if strong, looses its value. We appeal to boarders to use healthy language and give opinions for or against in a dignified manner abmehta
