Should seniors be dropped
by Mandar Dhotre on Nov 06, 2007 11:13 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

The best 11 players should play for India.Sachin is still outscoring the likes of Yuvraj ,Gambhir and Uthappa.Why discard your old car if it is giving a better mileage than your brand new car.The engine and not the body is more important.

Usman Ali ... Get your facts straight. In the Semi Final of the World Cup of 1996, Sachin was still the highest run scorer for India in that match. It was after his dismissal that the "Rest" of the team capitulated. Stop talking nonsense

hitesh--as per vengsarkar's new mantra on form and fitness sachin doesnt stand a chance--when dravid's past performances can be overlooked why bring out sachin's past glory?
same yard stick needs to be applied and thats where vengsarkar will start squirming--what else can you expect of a lousy guy like him sacked from captaincy and indian team for breach of conduct!!

I agree Vox, Hitesh seems to a Mumbaikar and he sees things differently than what we look at. Do you think they could have touched Dravid if he was the captain. they put pressure on him to step down so they can treat him like a rubbish. I fear next it will be Saurav's turn this is what with all apologies to Hitesh another guy from the mumbai lobby so called selector ( Vengsarkar foolishly said just before the start of the series) He told all the selectors felt that Ganguly should be discarded but he told that if one senior goes it has to be Dravid only he knows why.
