it is really high time that v drop unceremoniously both the selfish and good for nothing cricketers now.they r undoubtedly ganguly and tendulkar.these two will make indian ckt team like our present hocky team before they finally retire and enjoy a lavish personal life out of tax payers money. all their extra wealth r to b immediately confisicated and they r to b forced to lead an ordinary life like when they were 20yrs back.

Ganguly can not retire without spoiling the next upcoming World Cup by creating groupism and make his group not to play during critical situations. Your expectations are wrong.

u r a mad, the man who make a team as a proffessional and fighting spirit. he has the true spirit and only he can tackle the RAHUL "WALL" DRAVID's veg team.... I m sorry but u r from which state??????
If you can axe sehwag and bhajji and not consider pathan for selection then Tendulkar and Ganguly shld also have been dropped.They are very mean persons and only play for their records and money.Somebody save team india and us from these two selfish palyers

yes.I don't know why BCCI selects these old guys(tendulkar,ganguly,zaheer) once again?.I think BCCI considers previous records and money only,the y are not having any future plans.Why BCCI not taking india's n0-1 all rounder pathan?. Politics and money motive plays very important role in indian cricket.This will destroy our world cup winning dream soon.I am not considering Sachin is a great batsman.He is not playing well in foregin grounds.He is hero only in local grounds.Sachin and Sourav destroys our world cup winnig dream.

hello Deepak and Senhil Kumar As expected you guys start criticising Sachin and keeping him more popular and always in momemtum. Deepak says - to drop Sachin - someone who got man of the series just a week ago. If Deepak's brother or son is in similar position of Sachin - will he write the same words? Useless idiot. I think Senthil Kumar is working freely and donating whatever he receives unlike sachin? Both these guys should have been disgruntled elements who might have watched the young sachin growing and glowing from 15 to 33 years. No cricketer has ever played under that much tension as sachin always due to expectations of people and he is not immortal and has his own strength and weaknesses. Great Don lauds this Sachin and world's greatest spin bowler Warne had nightmarish experience becoz of Sachin and legend speed bowlers have all praise for our little genius. Barking by Deepaks and Senthil Kumars - who might not have dreamt of carrying such a huge responsibillity that sachin carried in his prime youth. These guys write some non-sense just to criticise him. Let these idiots continue their barking - but Indians would like to watch this legend play for as long as he could - because - after Bradman the legend, Sachin the genius and let these guys bring their own sons to reach the calibre of Sachin that started from his tender age of 15 instead of crying over his success and growth. These dull headed idiots with closed opinion on individuals do it just to ge

It is really sad to hear such comments for our cricketing heroes who have contributed so much for Indian Cricket. I doubt any other cricketer past or present has done so much for Indian Cricket.
As it is in our Indian Politics, BCCI wants too old ones in Cricket. Old is gold is the MANTRA of BCCI. Why, Kumble, Agarkar, Tendulkar, Dravid Laksman and Ganguly?
Is it true! how is this possible? who is the brave person who do it? How he dose without giving sehwag one chance to another chance and continues regular another chance to prove his ability. Is BCCI scrap? samajh me nahi a raha hai.
from the team selected, i guess these would be the bowlers for the Lords Test.
Zaheer Kumble RP Singh Sreesanth
i am not comfortable with RP Singh in that list, he showed a lot of promise in bangladesh, but i somehow have a feeling that if he has a bad test or two, the other three would find it very difficult to bowl out england twice. if they go for the fifth bowler option then one among laxman or ganguly will sit out...dear o dear, tht would mean a lengthy tail. we miss that allrounder. it s a real shame that despite all these years ganguly has never made an effort to improve his bowling to a consistent level. which ever strategy india follows......RP Singh somehow destroys the balance. arguments are welcome. never play a test match without VVS Laxman
i dont understnd how selectors think that ramesh powar and gambhir is better than bajji and sehwag for tests. this ia dirt politics. they want there mumbai guy powar want to play and gambhir we all know he is going to mere passanger for the test team. now a days the bcci and indian crictket is becoming worst and dirty politics.

anyway he doesant deserve a place in the side, so atleast good na that he is getting the chance to board flight to these locales and would have a great holiday at BCCI cost, else who asks him, anyway you put him on those tracks with seam, he will not be sure where his front foot should be!!!!! :-) lets face it, gambhir, dravid, utthappam, rp singh dont deserve a plc in the side!!!!

this is biggest joke.... I am not going to debate on the players u have mentioned (because it is debatable) but Dravid.... I dont know why u guys have soething against Dravid...he is one of the most succesfull batsman in world cricket on the form he is now...that too though he bats sometimes lower in the order for the team
Bcci did the right thing by dropping sehwag from both the test and one dayers.bcci should have dropped even for the world cup mathchers.but due to captain's compulsion they selected him.but this time they decided he should be part of the team any more.by dropping from the squad they send strong message not only to sehwagt but also all other players that the current form is an important criteria for selection.i would to thank the selection commitee for giving antoer chance for sharma's.i have the confindent in both of them that they will perform in the one dayers.dhoni has been given extra responsibity as he has been named vice captian of india.this is very good move by selection commitee.i am eager to see how dhoni performs under pressure as he has to make some important decisionat at the curical time.
