I do not know about who would be the right Captain at this moment!. My imagination goes to my boyhood school days when our teachers and non teaching staff used to stage dramas. One was Ravindrnaths 'Viswarjan'. Shyamadasbabu was missing on the occasion. We later dicovered him on the stage playing the role of Aprna and he was so convincing. With adequate make up Kumble will automatically look like a good SAS and Dravid like a conspiring Bahu. If it can be tried!!

Fool, Lee & Tait never come in yellow, its baggy green. Learn facts and then reply.
Arjun Sawant in this blog put forth a valid point....That in Australia, we need to have a seam oriented attack and thus how would we be able to accomodate two spinners!!
Valid point and a very valid question!!
But i'll make a small correction... We won't need to go with 4 pacers, rather 3 seamers...then the choice is either a 4 man attack with 3 seamers and the lone spinner or a 5 man attack with 3 seamers and 2 spinners!!
My understanding of conditions in Australia says that we need to go with 3 seamers and 2 spinners!! Simply cos of the fact that history says that you can't take 20 wickets in Australia with a 4 man attack!! They are too good to allow a 4 man attack to bowl them out twice...so victory is out of the question if you go with 3 seamers and the lone spinner!!
Also, Australia have 4 lefties in Jacques, Haden, Hussey and gilchirst...all in form!! To control these guys, you need an offspinner of class....none better than bhajji!!
So, the Indian attack in Australia should be Kumble, Harbhajan, Zaheer Khan, Sreesanth and Munaf Patel/RP Singh
Thus the team would look like this : Sehwag/Jaffer/Karthick Anil Kumble(makeshift opener) Rahul Dravid Sachin Tendulkar Ganguly/Yuvraj Singh MS Dhoni Harbhajan Singh Zaheer Khan Shantakumaran Sreesanth Munaf Patel/RP Singh
This team will compete on level terms with Australia!!

Sorry the team would be like this :Sehwag/Jaffer/Karthick Anil Kumble(makeshift opener) Rahul Dravid Sachin Tendulkar VVS Laxman Ganguly/Yuvraj Singh MS Dhoni Harbhajan Singh Zaheer Khan Shantakumaran Sreesanth Munaf Patel/RP Singh
Missed VVS in the original list!! Sorry for the oversight!!
would kumble go for a woman named captainship who offered herself to SACHIN first because her father did not allow her to go with her exboyfriend --ganguly...and her current boyfriend Dravid ran away saying I cannot handle her !!! and when discarded by SACHIN she comes to kumble because she is not allowed to go to dhoni? ...and then would kumble call it a matter of great honour to get married to captainship? how can you have a leader of team india who thinks its a great honor for him to marry this captainship
some people lovingly call you a great servant of Indian cricket and I tell these people you cant make a servant the captain of one of the most prestegious nations in the world...although still pretty much very 3rd world but booming economy and stuff

and some people say kumble neva expresses emotions on the feild ...but do they remember? how high you jumped when you got the no 10 batsman of bangladesh (who didnt know which was the right side of the bat)...the way you jumped for a moment i thot you had been nominated for the nobel prize for physix or something ....(jump ...im not asking you to stop jumping but jump when you get a good batsman out...dont jump and touch the stars when you get the No 10 or no 11 batsman of zimbawe, bangladesh, canada. holland and ireland.
they also dont remember how your face looks and the way you behave when after bowling 100 overs you manage to get one caught behind chance and it gets dropped!!!
you look like a whole theatere company gone insane

I Think this Advani is no different from another Advani who is obviously more famous.India's captainship is not a woman , what a thinking. Indian selectors have done a great job by naming Kumble as captain. Dhoni should be his understudy till Kumble hangs his boot and then Dhoni should be elevated to the hot seat. I think Yuvi and Sewhag can now forget of ever becoming the captain of Indian cricket team. This time Indian selectors have certainly scored over their Australian counterparts who failed to recognize the talent in Shaun Warne.
Kumble is great servant of ind cricket and won many matches in short and long form of game but never got the credit or media hype even whatever he deserve for. He is most ill treated cricketer and finally he got the honour of leading team which would hv happpened long time before Kumble never express his emotions on the field which many ppl misunderstand that he is not agressive or his body language is not good but he is committed professional team player and he is fighter Kumble never involved in compliants, contraversies, groupism, media /political hipofs,He is silent but superb performer on the cricket field Best of luck to A (NIL) TON Kumble for his new job and also for 600 wkts in test

you cant make a servant of the captain of team india ....that is exactly the point ...you cant go around making servants, chai walas, watchmen as indian captains a captain should have a big heart, he should be a tiger(like ganguly) he should be a prince(like ganguly) thats the whole point ...not servants and watchmen

We can understand Frustration.But, you can only wish that it helps!!Like it or not, Ganguly is not coming back.
how? why? from which angle? how can you make someone the captain who thinks its a great honor to be indian captain? especially in these circumstances when no one is willing to take the job ...
LISTEN KUMBLE?
would kumble go for a woman named captainship who offered herself to SACHIN first because her father did not allow her to go with her exboyfriend --ganguly...and her current boyfriend Dravid ran away saying I cannot handle her !!! and when discarded by SACHIN she comes to kumble because she is not allowed to go to dhoni? ...and then would kumble call it a matter of great honour to get married to captainship? how can you have a leader of team india who thinks its a great honor for him to marry this captainship
anywaze i thot attrocious captainship starts and ends with dravid but the bcci is all set to prove me wrong hehehe
but i admit im looking forward to some attrocious but funny and entertaining ..really funny captainship from kumble in the aussie tour ...again for gods sake not Kumble ...dont ruin the country you people ganguly ko captain banaao yaar drop your egos he is the most deserving candidate for a woman like captainship
IF KUMBLE IS A CAPTAIN THEN HE WILL DEFENETLLY GOING TO PLAY ALL THE TEST MATCHES RT ? THEN IN AUSTRELIYA WE NEED 4 FAST BOWLER AND ONE SPINER IF KUMBLE IS A CAPTAIN AND HE GOING TO PLAY ALL MATCHES THEN WHAT ABT BHAJJI ????
PLS DON'T TAKE IT OTHER WAY ROUND I M BIG FAN OF ANIL BHAI BUT THE WE ARE HEDDING TOWARDS THE STUPID SITUATION

Hey saley...This is the first time he got respect,after his long career(That too at the end of his career).He is always over shadowed by Sachin,Sourav,Dravid..Dou think ,If anil was not captain ,New captain is going to take Bhajji or someother spinner in place of Anil.
