sachin play for kudh ka record,dada play for country,shewag play for danda to selector and Dhoni play for Dipika and selector play for chamcha giri to BCCI.
Yes dada should not give up.Why he should? why not 10dulker,dravid v v s and anil? all this become old gun.Dada can still bet well.Yes week area of his is filding.but that was from the begining.Ask selictoers what sachine is contibuting? nothing.Anil atlest takes wickets,dravid v v s now of no use at all.If this oldes can play, why not dada? Dada don't give up, u will get place in team. Good Luck dada

dear Dhiren Look at the sachin's record for the last year & dravid's performance in Aus. this year. That's why the are selected. Gangually is a good player but not performing well. As far a sachin is concern his presence does matter in Test Squad.

yeah and let get siddhu back as well if u want to go with kumble and dravid.. you look like a proper indian selector
Ganguly is a great player and is still the Maharaja and there is no denying this fact. He is fighter to the core and it is this attitude of his due to which he has proven his critics wrong each time. Australians are the preys which DADA likes to hunt the most. This is supported by records and can be verified by anybody:
1) He is the best Indian batsman on Australian soil.
2) He has scored maximum runs against Aussies.
3) He is the best Indian player against Australia.
4) Even the Australian coach(es) who have tried to harm DADA have got a punch straight into their face.
5) He is most successful Indian captain.
Considering the above it'll be absolutely foolish if DADA is not included in the playing eleven in the forthcoming series.
People have started commenting on the age of DADA. However, I feel that in sports whether a player is young or old is to be judged by his hunger to succeed and not by the number of times he has taken rounds around the Sun. Sports-men/women like Martina Navratilova, Pat Symcox, Clive Rice & so on and so forth have already proven this number of times. And for that matter DADA's hunger is far more than any youngster on the scene.
Rather than disqualifying him for his age, he should be included in the squad for he brings the experience of a senior player and the grit of a newcomer.
Infact, for the Test teams atleast, make him the Captain of the team and he will show to the world that he has many more matches to win for INDIA.

All said and done Dada remains the weak link of Indian team. He is not a consistent batsman. He plays uppish shots against fast bowlers indicating that he cannot cope pace. Lately it is seen he is faltering against muralitharan in his poor show against sri Lanka. His exclusion from the team is good ridance of bad rubbish. Mr. Bansal I doubt your cricketing sense for writing all these crap.

dada might be a good player on australian soil but the recent series for which dada is not picked is going to be held in india and he is currently out of his form :)

mr bhavik u get ur records right, dada is highest test run scorer since dec 2006 for india so plz get ur stats right
Dada should hang his boots now with pride,else it will be too late.The time is also perfect as we have many Quality youngsters in waiting. Player Like Rohit sharma may prove to be quite handy if he is inducted now into the squad & groomed.Of course he has to be given some time & not like Yuvi & Kaif who remained always in & out of the team.
Ganguly is one of the legend and he have slapped many time the selection process. He is the main reason for the change in Indian cricket after we had captains like Azhar and sachin who literally took indian team to bottom. I dont think Dhoni would enjoy his presence in team now. I love Ganguly and hope Indian selectors learn something from their mistakes.

dude dont care what his records are but if he is such a great player why India hasnt won a world cup since he playing? At Ganguly made this team to reach to world cup final. what has sachin done except improving his own records???
we love dada and so do his game. Ganguly has shown us in previous period that he is capable of coming back with a bang. The players like Ganguly should be made to play till the time they wish to play.
The above report said that he has just scored 2 half centuries in last 15 innings....but he is comming at number 6 position and the top most batesmans not to support him..look the case in south africa also..he was fighting with the tail enders.......and at his postion after the fall of 5 wickets ..basically the team will be playing at immense pressure....so how can we blaim all the hell to ganguly....He should be comming in 3rd or 4th postion or why he is avoided from opening the innings....he has prooved that he is one of the fine openers in world cricket...
