Does the selection panel have a choice, Dravid is still India's best batsman in both forms of cricket and juniors certainly look upto him.
Saurav has just made a comeback, looking at his fitness and age, he does not have more than a year at the international level.
Sachin, is past his best years, was failure as captain and his batting was also affected during his tenure. Should just concentrate on giving his best while batting.
Sehwag, was Vice Captain, like Sachin he should concentrate on doing his best while batting.
Yuvraj, has not even cemented his place in the Test arena. India's best one day player, should be groomed as Vice Captain to Rahul for atleast 2 years, before he is given resonsibility, let us face it, he is no Greame Smith.

ya u can't change the whole team and all seniors player rite now..atleast let dravid continue as captain for near abt 7-8 months and during this period try to replace all the senior players..there r many replaces available no doubt...let them come..u probably hav seen last ranji trophy finals..how young players perfome..and then decide the faith of captain..it may happen that the present captain perform with new guys..what u say..don't curse anyone..all the players u named hav contributed alot to indian cricket..try to giv recommendations...diplomatically..
