Dinda would have been the right choice.. He is young, energetic and got raw pace.

Best for National integration is
1)To take 1 player from each state....simply forget about winning
2)India shud register with ICC as 5 zones ie North,south,east,west & central
Ha Ha

As soon as Srikant became selector Balaji from south got the chance. What about Dhawal Kulkarni or RP Singh? Balaji's has no pace or swing left in him. He only relies on some variations. That can be useful in T20 Only where 8 an over is decent...but not in 50 overs. And given his fragile body...he's not the one for the future. Next they'll call Nehra...if someone from Delhi becomes the chief selector.

You don't need a Vengy or Chika or somebody to destroy Indian Cricket.... You i.e Dayanand, Parangat and ppl like you have almost done or doing it.

Who says Balaji is outdated. It is because of some undue favourism, he could not be regular with Indian team. Whenever he got chance he proved his selection.

looking is different thing than the performance. Balaji has a good accuracy but he was always overshadowed. I hope this time it will not be happened

He is yet to play international cricket. Balaji has proved himself in the international arena. Who can forget his match winning efforts in Pak under Saurav ganguly, wher for the first time India won a series against Pak in Pak. He has loads of experience too. He is a handy bat at well. so you cannot crib about his inclusion. NO dirty politics here.

Boss.. I don't know how much Srikant influenced Balaji's inclusion..but Dhoni captain of Chennai Superkings must have surely pitched in for Balaji....
