My observation; 1. Ganguly was great player, he is achieved what he wanted, 10 K run in ODI plus 100 wickets. But yesterday, he was looking tired during the fielding, may be age factor. There was lack of enthusiam in his body language. During saving a boundry, he was struggling. I am not agnst him, but I strognly believe that this is the right time that he should gracefully take retirement, and thus creating opportuinity for youngsters. He can play Test matches for 1 or 2 series and take retirement from that format too.
2. Tendulkar: He was great, He is great and he will remain great. I have not seen any better batsman than tendulkar in my life. He is God of cricket. Wow, the way he was playing yesterday..no one can describe in his paper. one should have lucky to have watching such wonderful shots. It was just great. With this form, I have no doubt that he would be one of the prime member of WC-2011. People who critises him are really mad, do not have any real understanding of cricket.
3. Dravid: Wow, what a great batsman he is !! He is wall of test cricket. After sacked of ODI, he made consecutive hundreds in ranji matches agnst Mumbai and Punjab respectively. This shows, how class batsman he is !! So apart from regionalism, we must all agree, he is gem. No doubt, he is great player. I wish, if we all indian are able to met out well treatment to him. I am waiting for him comeback to provide solidity in the middle order.

Cont: atured enough to understand the need of ODI format. Well played. Both are future of India.
5. VVS: Again he failed to score agnst Punjab in ranji match. He is out of form now. I think, yuvi shd get chance instaed of vvs in test series. Yuvi will be handy in middle order.

Against Australia....VVS would be easily sailed into the Indian team......especially when the cricket is scheduled in Australia where he has got tremendous record 2 x 150 runs

Excellent analysis. Dravid is any day better than Ganguly interms of technique, and fitness. Ganguly's best days as one day player are over. Besides we don't need two seniors in top of order especially when we have sehawag, Gambhir, Uthappa. Poor Uthappa despite being in 11 not getting chances.
