Playing on a dead wicket is anybody's cup of tea. Playing off-side only is dada's cup of tea !!!. The true reason Sachin did not want to play in the middle order is the feilding restrictions won't be there, so tough to get the score and a good strike rate cum average. Sachin wants opening in onedays but he does not want to open the innings in test cricket, then he and the team needs some one else to open the innings for test. These are called double standards. Sachin and dada both think that they are playing for their brand value and endorsements from ads, than they think themselves to be patriotic. Sachin want to grab the captancy from the back door, and he was partly successful in getting vice-captain position in the team, by present performance he does not deserve in the one-day team at all cost.I do not know why Kumble was selected? and why sreesanth did not get an opportunity to bowl? some surprising questions to answer. Dravid seems to be caught in a quagmire, sure the most seniors in the team should go. As Chappel once said, "if India need to loose anyway then why not they try with youngsters?". Chappel hinted his view of the team before leaving "this is the team India(ns) WANTED" read that as team BCCI & selectors selected the team as per their choice. If BCCI fails to change it's functioning attitude then we should look forward to winning against Ireland and Kenya only !!!
