Bring back Sreesanth! Ausies get tensed up even if he conducts himself and sports a smile!
What's the use of so called `sound' technique, if it is not yielding any results? Don't you think 44 runs from 5 consecutive matches means, Dravid is struggling? Give him a break! Break will do him a lot good. The rotation policy does two good things by itself. It avoids early burnup due to playing excessive cricket and gives fair chances to those waiting for their turns. Afterall, Team India cap is nobody's birth right. You need to have it in you and perform to don India colours. It's not bestowed to someone based on past laurels! There's no room for emotions and sentiments here. Dravid has become a burden, a liability to the team now. Should we give chance for another five matches for him to strike form?
My Team will be :
1. Saurav / Sehwag 2. Sachin 3. Uthappa 4. Yuvaraj 5. Badrinath 6. Dhoni 7. Irfan Pathan 8. Murali Karthik 9. Harbhajan 10. R.P. Singh 11. Sreesanth (Ausies get tensed at the very sight of him and commit mistakes) 12. Dinesh Karthik
