All seniors should be questioned
by sandip darji on Mar 26, 2007 01:44 PM

Completely Agree with the article.



Regarding Greg, I think he was sidelined while team selection. He wanted youth, but he had to go with the original team of two three year ago.



Dravid is not much aggresive as Saurav (based on the look in TV)but he is a good player and thinker. He backed Sehwag, who only put some resistance in last two matches.



Stratergy of putting Sachin in middle to provide strengh in middle order had to changed after return of Yuvraj and Ganguly.



Seeing the performance of Ganguly, I think he is best suit for Middle order.



Sachin can't click when needed. We should give him some chance, but I think the sun is about to set. Saurav is wasting balls and creating unnecessary pressure as a senior. He should be well understood or put him in middle order. Worst part is running between the wicket.If he was in form, he should have played. He is not match winner now. Still he is a good player. Dravid is somewhat not suitable to one dayers. Dhoni, you can't reliable on because of in consistancy. Yuvraj, un reliable too.



To move ahead ground fielding, fitness level, enthusiasm in field and proper batting stretergy is must. We had superb batsman on paper, but unable to unite and extract them. It will not be wrong if said, They all are playing for themselves now the way Saurav, Yuvraj, Sachin batted.



The main issue is Captaincy. I think Yuvraj and Dhoni are better. But both are not mature in terms of consistancy and vision. They can be put as deputy of some one for some time say dravid only.(But for some time only)



All the best to Indian Cricket team....
