Tendulkar and Shewag have not performed anything worthwhile for more than a year now. Yet their places are reserved in the team. Whereas Sourov was asked to play local tournaments, prove his form and come back and Irfan has been sent back to regain his form in the midst of a tour.
Biased and partisan is shown towards non performers like Sachin and Shewag and even if they did not perform, Commentators like Harsha Bhogle, Gavaskar and Ravi Shashtri praise them skyhigh, which is baffling.
Unless we follow Australina method of selecting players based on their performances, our Cricket will become on par with Keynya, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe. God Save Indian Cricket. !!!
