jaffer is a elegant player and he is a very good player of fast bowling ad his temperment will be an advantage where wicket fall in heap these days in indian team. he can keep one end tight + left , right hand combine with sachin/shehwag
After reading most of the postings here, I see that the wave of optimism is raising high again.
The initial success of the team got us riding it and the 2 changes again.
Unfortunately, this time I am sure the team is going to fail. Not because I feel for it, but because logically and after observing the body language of the team members including the captain, I dont see any ray of hope.
Its really shocked about Jaffer inclusion. Whenever the selection commitee is changed there are biased towards there state and not inclined towards the sucess of the team.Since vensarkar is from Bombay he selects Jaffer saying he as superior technique . I dont think Indian cricket will reach heights until this biased and promotional adds comes under control. Day by day Indian cricket is comming under sorry state of affairs.... CRICKET IS BECOMING POLITICS ......
This selection committee may recall Azhar and Jadeja leave apart Ganguly for the South African Test series.
The foolish Chappel does not know that Ahzar, Jadeja and Ganguly are the best players of fast bowling. Ask Mr.Donald he still cannot sleep in the night because of this trio.
Doom Dravid, he also does not understand that playing match winning innings in fast paced traks of Sabaina Park that too without Tendulkar is nothing. He should learn from Ganguly how to counter the best fast bowlers in the world. Ganguly the Great does it easily with his mouth.
Ganguly is also a great runner, whenever there is some threat of green top Ganguly runs like anything and reaches to ALIPORE(Its a place in Kolkata, which is very close to Middle East) in no time.
Last of all this bunch of selectors will prove themseves much better than Raj Singh Dungarpore & CO. So all the Circus companies get prepared, by the World Cup ends u guys have five options to choose from.
Last of all Vengsarkar loves Ganguly very much because Ganguly broke his record!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Vengsarkar played 16 test matches at a trot without a century and Gangyly - 22.
i have stopped watching cricket. i guess there r lakhs like me who r dissapointed with the game.but the recent selection of indian team was so shocking that it provoked me to write this. I think indian cricket team has been selected on the basis of regional quota. when Powar is out Jafer is in.laxman out kumble in..like that. i dont understand why the selection committee is just playing (rotating) with flop players like laxman, jaffer, mongia, raina who have not contributed anything in the indian sucess(i guess there is some sort of agreement). y dont they try with some new blood.dhoni, sehwag were all not that famous when they entered international, but they turned out to be big success.so y dont vengsarkar try with some new blood whom he think are not that talented(he is confused abt talented and famous..he needs known faces)
