RE:Pathan does not deserve a place
by rahul tiwari on Feb 24, 2007 10:28 PM

well it is true that pathan is in a really bad form and he has lost his race with his collegue ballers.zaheer's resurgence,agarkar and munaf's consistency is outstanding at the moment.pathan has lost his speed and swing is unnoticable coz his line length is extremely poor.but at the same time we hav to boost his moral too.the best thing that we can get 4m pathan is that coz of his presence we can get an extra batsman.i know most of us would never recognise his this ability which z over shadowed coz of his bad balling.he z a sensible batsman,very promising,was successful in south africa tour with a century facing daryl styen.he is developed in batting.very good in running between the wicket and a safer fielder.unfortunetly his rise in batting has brought a decline in his balling.but he should be in the team.india can pick him as 5 th baller.this would place a batsman at 7number as pathan who can play like a pinch hitter and can be successful at 7 number.we should jst hope that he gain his rythem back.if this happens ,he can put india as strongly balanced team.just pray this happens.
