let me tell u something.why is it that they always want ganguly out of the team.why not sachin dravid laxman who didnt perform well.one damn aussie greg chappell started this legacy,a damn trend which stuck with ganguly like a curse.since then hes been treated this way.i'll ask everyone out there,around 3 -4 years ago would anyone of u even dream ganguly could be dropped from the side.its just cheap politics and the trend started by that aussie greg chappell.until greg chappell everything was okay,what happened after that.sachin and others have performed so bad in the past but they never dropped sachin.why so?????.its the cheap mentality these selectors have.the young team which they talk about just tell me who started this young team trend,ganguly started this trend.if u see ganguly performed much better than many in the side since his return to the side.despite this the selectors dont want him in the side.this is so harsh.this guy writes perform.my god we would have lost have not ganguly played a good knock against south africa.its kinda sick why these selectors change their colours like chameleons.atleast they should have retained ganguly in tests.u cant expect young players to do well i tests.the selectors think if u have a young team its kinda cool.in the past indian team was tormented by the old team tag.its very immature on the part of the selectors.now they expect mohammad kaif or wasim jaffer to take gangulys place.what a shame.

It is the lobby that works behind the players to be in the team.Truly our selectors have no or never use any kind of yard stick to retain or to throw the players when they are out of form.Aussie selectors have ignored likes of David Boon,Steve waugh when they lost the rythm and form.Of all the teams the Cricket Australia uses it's yard stick for anyone . When we have selectors from all corners of nation we can have talented team.Most of the time selectors hail from Mumbai or from certain regions.Regional sentiments as well as regional favours defenitely ruin the upcoming talented cricketers.All the bigs like Sachin,Dravid,Laxman,Kumble should be removed then only we can see and try future cricketers.BCCI always wants old horses inspite of their continuous poor form.BCCI should buy Aussie selectors so that our cricket will come on the track.

we cannot copy the aussie selectors.they have their way,we have ours.its test matches we r taking about,not one day international.all the young guns havent performed well in the tests.look at yuvraj singh.why aint he in the side.coz of lack of performance.whatever it is u cant rule out the seniors, atleast in tests.u need experienced players in test matches.the aussie team too has many seniors in both forms of the game.selectors r going way beyond their normal aura.this aint necessary.why always target ganguly.its become a ritual in their eyes.first they kick him out,then hes reinstated and despite performing well hes still being treated shabbily.why cant they wait for sometime.he will eventually retire.replacing ganguly with some idiot wont do any good to the team.u wanna compare ganguly with mohammad kaif and wasim jaffer.no way.they r no match to his talent.
