Retain the same side ? NO!!!

Well
According to my opinion, Indians have a lots of choices for the third and the final test. Some might say retain the same side, but it can be dangerous. India was one batsman short and they had to depend on the legends as Sachin, Dravid, Sehwag and Laxman. Yuvi is not always ready to bat. Agreed that he can get some runs on the board,but we cannot say that this guy will always bat? Besides, if India has Saurav back in the team, that will solve the problem of bowling too. I think Agarkar, Zaheer and Pathan can work together in an excellent bowling pattern and India MUST think of the option of Agarkar back in the team. So my team lineup would be: Dravid, Sehwag, Tendulkar, Laxman, Ganguly, Yuvi, Dhoni, Pathan, ZAHEER, AGARKAR and KUMBLE/HARBHAJAN. We need to agree that the last three players can get some good runs on the bat. Agarkar has the ability of scoring some good sixes and fours. Zaheer and Kumble/Bhajji have fifties in their record and they can get some 20-25 runs each and provide a healthy tailend batting lineup. So India has all these options. They just to think broad and choose the best. I think this would be the strongest Indian team India has ever produced.

Rahul the weakest captain

Rahul should step down as captain. He is not capable enough to work as captain

The only success Dravid-Chappel has achieved is to defeat Srilanka in One dayers and test. Other than taht they have nothing. As a coach Chappel failed in Srilanka(Dravid was captain), Zimbabwe(Sourav was captain and india won the test series),against South Africa it was 2-2 in home ground(Dravid).So, literally nothing has been achieved, remembering that Srilanka never won either a one day series or test series in India against India.So it is quite ridiculos how the media and some former players are unnecessarily giving support this coach and captain.Will dravid-chappel will be able to give India the 2007 world cup? Because 1/2 inch short from that would be enough to realise that Sourav-Right had done a lot better than this pair.
