Very Good Vengsarkar.. Kick Out Pathan.. Kick Out Dhoni.. Bring in Sourav .. Bring in Srinath.. Bring in Kapil ... Even you are welocme into Team Budda India
The team which performs has to play, if pathan is unfit he is ruled out , You mentioned about Sourav he has excelled in both the series, India wants match-winners to win the World Cup

it is good to see people resort to comical ideas often! nevertheless constructive in its own way :)
If not Irfan then why Sehwag who is also a liablity for India this moment.
For Irfan there is only one chance then why so many chances for Sehwag.
Selectors! do you have any answer for that.
I am sure Selectors are going to treat Sehwag even worst than Ganguly. In Ganguly case he has ability to come back however Sehwag will never come back after that. Selectors and Sehwag both will equally responsible for spoiling Sehwag's carrier.

Irfan Also prove himself after coming from South Africa, U remember Bombay ranji score "5 Wkts" down with "Zeroooooo" runs.
There is no need to give the prove certificate to vegsarker..If it is required why this is not applicable to sehwag......

I do agree, Sehwag is liability in his current form and not an automatic choice...! ! ! But, do we have an alternate choice ?

Yes Prakash. Gautam Gambhir is the best choice as compared to Viru.
Its high time we stop making icons of few players. The entire selection process needs to be democratised. Just like Job ad., there must be open ad. and all applicants must take a standardised test of bowling, batting and fielding by and against a robot. Whoever scores maximum marks on merit must be picked for the team. I have no doubt that there are atleast 100 if not 1000 better playing indians. Dr.B.Ashok

Wat about conducting written examinations?? People have to come through the ranks....playing gully cricket is different..holding a rubber or tennis ball is different....a kooka boora ball is almost double the size....its not like releasing ur tennis or rubber balls...and batting while ball coming at 150 is difficult and tat too a season ball not a tennis ball! Its a very tough game not so easy as you say.. Proof of this? Only one sachin,one Lara,One Ponting,One Wasim,Cricketers are born not produced....This is not MBBS doctor...here u cant reproduce... they are just produced!!!!!!!!!
If pathan's fitness was a doubt, why was his name included in the list. A the selector's making a mockery of the selection process by selection a player ( for such a mega event ) and then telling that a player needs to prove his performance in a local event due to pressure from certain quarters.
This only shows that in India people who occuply public positions are only having responsibility and perks and all other benefits but no accountability.
I Think Vegsarker do't want to play an allrounder in India team... Pls also keep out dhoni??? Then Bermuda have a gre8 chance to beat India in the very first match...
RE:India With Out an All Rounder

if he performs well he will be part of WC-VENG thats good thing .. today we have seenbrett lee ruled out of WC because he in't fit.
Well,As my knowledge or every1 knows about Irfan pathan that he is the only genuine all rounder in the team.what ever it is,its all up to politics of indian cricket,there is no one person can decide abt it almost there are so many people other have to decide about it , but needed good team to take trophy back home that is main effort needed...all the best for the cricket team...../

Dear Friend from Nepal. Please understand person may be alrounder but he must be in form for the game and that is extremely important.
RE:RE:whoever it may concern (from Nepal)
by Janardhana on Feb 23, 2007 06:29 PM Permalink
You are absolutely correct, Nobody is bothered about form. In the present form Sachin and sourav are more economical and better than pathan in bowling and hence better alrounders than pathan if one thinks pathan as alrounder. one should also look at comments made by Sobers about allrounder tag given to all who perform just 6 months and one year. For the moment Pathan is neither a good bowler nor a batsman. Unfortunately there is one section in India who says that pathan and shewag to be dropped due to poor form, but if they are really dropped, there will be a media bash as we saw in Souav's case.
DEAR SELECTORS, WHT I FEEL IS WHEN YOU ARE SELECTING TEAM FOR CRICKET KA MAHAKUNBH U NEED TO KEEP MANY FACTORS IN CONSIDERATION FIRST OF ALL PLAYERS LIKE IRFAN AND SHEWAG SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN ANY PRIDE TO REPRESENT NATION IN SUCH EVENT COZ THEIR PERFORMANCE SHOWS THAT THEY ARE NOT FIT TO REPRESENT NATION OF 112 CRORES FIRST OF ALL OUR BOARD NEED TO BRING RESTRICTION ON PLAYERS THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO DO ANY OTHER ACTIVITIES APART FROM CRICKET COZ WHT I HAD SEEN IS THIS PLAYERS HAVE TIME FOR COMMERCIAL'S AND WHEN IT COMES TO DOMESTIC CRICKET THEY KEEP THEMSELF AWAY BY SHOWING IRRELEVANT REASONS GUYS LIKE PATHAN WHO CAME FROM VERY POOR BACKGROUND HAV FORGOTTEN HIS OLD DAYS AND SKILLS SO HE NEED TO BE THOUGHT LESSON OVER ALL CONCLUSION IS HE SHOULD NOT BE PART OF WORLD CUP TEAM
