Team selection is like Manmohan Desai directed movie
by Sharad Saxena on Apr 21, 2007 03:48 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Sachin and saurav dropped from one day team... good
Sehwag dropped from test squad..... wonderful

These steps can make FOOL to no of persons but actually it is a wise planning , everybody will agree with me that in Bangladeshi conditions Sachin , Saurav and sehwag will not face any problem to give SPLENDID PERFORMANCE and based on that

All 3 will be easily get a place in one days and test squad as usual in next series after Bangladesh tour

It is like Saleem Javed written , manmohan Desai directed movie where MISPLACED brothers meet in the climax with HAPPY ENDING.....

Sharad,
Do u want the team to perform? Or you simply want sachin n saurav out? If it's so easy to score against b'desh, then even the youngsters would cement a place without countering quality opposition. What abt that? Performance should be the sole criterion for selection. Age should not be a bar as long as player is able to compensate for his weak areas through his scoring/bowling. You need to look at bowling, batting, fielding/running between wickets in totality. Looking at only one parameter won't give you the right picture.

Dear Mr Anirudh

I agree with your Ideology to select 11 IDEAL players " to look at bowling, batting, fielding/running between wickets in totality" but my dear friend in my opinion AT PRESENT, I repeat AT PRESENT there are not 11 such players who are at par international standard on all pitches NOT in sub continent pitches hero???
Except Bangladesh against which team u r going to test youngsters???

REQUEST-- Forget your heavily demanded criterie just name your 11 players
5 specialist bowlers
5 specialist batsmen
1 GENIUNE all rounder (not batting or bowling all rounder)

I am in wait for your reply.....

balls than runs he scored, build pressure for the batsman by not taking single or rotating strike,gave the catch parctice to opposition filders in 42 over, did not bothered take tamim;s simple catch druing agarkar bowling and gave more runs to bangadesh by poor fielding than the runs he scored for team, major architect to gift match to bangladesh.
He tried the same against bermuda but it did not clicked.
he could not stand aganisn strong bowling SL,
ganguly is most succeful politician and betrayed team and millions fans and made sure his record stat in WC did not harmed and tried to prove dravid not good captian. An deliberate attempt to team ind loose match
ganguly betrayed dalmiay, sachin and now dravid
ganguly is selfish, oppertunitst a cheap politician. He is not only promoting groupism, also spoiling sprots spirit of youngestes by encouraging them to play petty politics.
Now players bajji and dhoni who joined his group lost the place in team. But getting back into team will be difficult task b'cuz many youngsters are knocking team ind door.
By this time all players realised taht playing on the grond will bring reward but not from backstage politics. so no more support to dadas..
dravid gave 100% commitment and performed for team when he played under ganguly but he trusted ganguly sachin dhoni bajji agarkar zzahir like senior players and backfired by same group.
