Its better to take tendulkar out of the team. Though he was a good player.. it is the time to encourage young players like dhonii.. please stop all politics ..If it is a right decision to remove ganguly from the team .. it is necessary to take tendulkar out of the team..

You are right, Sameer. For the last 2-3 years, he never seems to be confident against quality bowling. I think the retirement time for both Ganguly and Tendulkar is already over!
I hope I will not abuse Tendulkar fans. But Tendulkar is not the same player, as he was before. While comparing him to Ganguly with the current form, I will say at least Ganguly is scoring heavily in domestic games. Beleive me I swear, I was a great Tendulkar fan in 1998, where he teared Shane Warne. But sadly, he is now a liabilty inthe Indian side and far away from being a match winner. For Tendulkar fans, Please dont feel bad about my comments. A question to all TENDULKARS FANS -- Please specify some of his knocks in the last 5 - 7 years (After 98, Australia series) where he played a match saving innings like Steve Waugh used to play in his days or an inning where he remained not out at the crease, when India won a Test match chasing against a strong team. I would love to see the statistic which might falsify my conception about him.
If India is batting first I would love to see Dhoni an Viru open the innings. If they do so there is high probablity of seeing over 450 runs on the very first day. And that will put opposition out of the game.
Chappel has tried successfully with Pathan, he can better the results with Dhoni. India does not Rahul Dravid , and SRT like players.
The winnig formula is very simple. Have 4 Virus, 4 Pathans and 3 Dhonis in team and you can defet any team at any venue.
Other wise you are bound to see some boring cricket as we saw in the 1st session of day3. VVS And RD let bowlers get in to tytham ,did not score at decent pace to bring the 388 close and did not bat too long. So once the were out in session # 2 it put lower order under pressure.
Dhoni and Pathan taught SRT , RD and VVS a lession how to bat. simillar lesson was taught by kaif and Yuvi in Nat west final but thsese dumbos try to play for themselves. And make cricket a boring game.
