Revamp team India
by Sreeram Ramaswamy on Mar 26, 2007 02:14 PM

BCCI, nothing would be more foolish than making Sachin captain now. Sachin has lost his quick reflexes and is more of a liability to the team than an asset. Send home the veterans, Dravid, Ganguly, and Sachin. Bring in young blood. Make Yuvraj captain and R.Uthappa/Shewag as vice-captain. Scout for a talent pool of 30 and focus on them for 2011 world cup from now itself. Identify 10 batsmen, 10 bowlers, 5 all-rounders, and 5 keeper batsmen. BCCI can rely on MRF pace-foundation in churning out pacers. Send home Chappell. Hire 2 of our own former cricketers, one for batting, one for bowling. We have too many sitting idle, let BCCI make use of them. For e.g. Kapil Dev is a v.good option as a bowling coach and Jimmy Amarnath for batting.



Lets do this keeping in mind 2011 world cup, which will be played in our own subcontinent.
