What is so great about this series win with India beating a weak Pak team inIndia .With Dravid India has beaten Pak in Pak.That is greater.Last time Pak was in India it was Dravid and Dhoni who did bulk of the scoring.So no need to go gaga over this series win.It is good but not enough to put the seal of approval on this ODI team . I like Dravid but that does not mean the team cannot do well without him.So too with Ganguly and Sachin.For all you know if you let Rohit Sharma fly,he may be the next Sachin.Who knows until allowed to fly.Raina could be the next Ganguly and Badrinath or Tewary the next Dravid.The selection committee and the captain shd break in the youngsters against the top teams.Otherwise we will be landed in a Pak type situation.

What the Hell wrong with u Guys, From the England Tour Seniors r Contributing so Much in Teams Wins, then whers the Point of replacing them...Agreed some Young Guns are Superb, But Until the Seniors are Contributing for the Victory, no need to Replace them...after all they r left with some 2-3 Years of Career in Cricket...Let them play

you are right that seniors had perform well recently serieses, but we have to gave experience to our youngster on international level and that is too good to gave him experience by playing them with seniors in couple of matches in every series. In the process they come to know how to handle international pressure.

ok if sr. r playing well but v hv to keep ready the bench strength once they retire. so Bosco's point is correct. in 1983 when 3 ausi greats retired, allan border had got very weak team and he had to start building the team from the fresh.
