Re:Aus tour team selection
by John Bosco on Dec 05, 2007 12:25 PM

From the team which played the second test,I think we shd drop Munaf Patel.The rest select themselves.
In addition we shd have Yuvraj,Akash Chopra rather than Gambhir as batsmen for cover.R.P.Singh,Sreesanth if fit,Pankaj Singh or the new U.P. pacer Tyagi if he is good.The fifth spot of paceman has to go to Munaf or Agarkar orIshant Sharma or Irfan.Better go with Irfan.
Exta spinner will be Murali Karthik.I think Harbajan ' Test career is over.But let him go to Aus.He may find success at some bouncy wicket.But his inability to strike in Kolkatta second innings is glaring.Instead of Harbajan I favour Mishra or Piyush Chawla.I think Piyush is a better bowler
Dinesh Karthik is not looking good at the top but needs to be carried as second wicketkeeper.He is better than Parthiv Patel.
