hello friends the current India- Pakistan series has been palyed with lots of intensity yet the flavour of friendship is seen which is pleasing for the eyes as well as for the game. i am looking forward to hard fought battles for the remaining 2 matches also. The only one change i wish the selectors do soon is getting back former captain Rahul Dravid in the squad. He is too good a player to be left out. Lets not forget on the previos tour before australia series in england he was among the highest scorers. The best quality about Dravid is his patience and the way he takes pressure I wont shy in saying he is among the best in business and the most priced scalp any oppostion wishes for. I also wish Anil Kumble all the best for his tenure as India Test Captain what a amazing player he has been on and off the feild. A living legend and example for all the youngsters. Now I conclude my coulmn hope you like reading it till next time take care and cheers.
dravid is better odi player/player captian than ganguly dravid batted from no 1 to 7 and joined 10k club he has highest nos catch holder in both forms of game as captain he had recored chaising win 19 odis, team never lost odi series at home and highest winning average that too surpassed gangly five yrs record in less than 2 yrs gnaguly had advanatage of dalmiya support while dravid was diteched by his team mates only otherwise WC debacle woulld not happened dravid also nominated and selected for icc odi team 2 yrs which honour did not happend to any other player so far dravid is highest scoreer in 1999 WC he is out of team bcuz of dirty politics of ind team dressing room supported by vengi and co Ganguly, bajji, zahir khan also failed but they are still in team dravid was sacked b'cuz of poor performance in 4 odis. selection committe has no proper policy for selection, always dif yardstick for players selection rp singh is proving he is worst than sresant and ganguly herbajan and zahir never help team vengi and co has not guts to touch super stars but honest selfless cricketer like dravid will be always victim of dirty politics rp singh has proved he is worst than shresant and munaf srisant and munaf has five wkt haul within a year of entering int;'l cricket but zahir kahn took 5 yrs of intl cricket to get five wkt haul. zhair / ganguy and bajji performs once in 4-5 matches it is simply politics. vengi and co are playing with odi career of dravid or even raina or M tiv

why always ganguly has to compromise position and why not others??? and RP Singh has been bowling really well and better that zaheer & sreeshant.... so stop ur same anti ganguly crap Suman...We also wish Dravid should come back!!!
Selection commitee should be answerable to Cricket fans. They should be forced to give rational about each and every inclusion/exclusion.
Why Dravid kept out only on few match performance & that also not on his usual no. 3
position? (Is it to get revenge with dravid who resign from capataincy due to Mr
Vansarakar's constant interference in playing 11 selection?) Why he has not given chance to prove himself in challenger trophy? Why Sehawag is selected over Raina who has better performed in challenger trophy? (Isn't it
contrary to 'select youth' criteria?) If a single fifty in domestic can bring back sehwag then why can't a double century that
also against a quality attack of mumbai bring back rahul dravid?
If they declare selection with proper reasoning then it's OK.. even the dropping of Big
players on the basis of performance is accepted. But do it with proper policy: Play any 2 of sachin, rahul, saurav, sehwag on the basis of performance so that their
careers will get extended and there will be enough opportunities for youngstors for smooth
makeover. So the compition will be among themselves and not with the youngsters. But now they have selected sehwag over dravid... then they will select dravid also with
other 3 ... and after few bad performance they may drop all 4 at a time... that's not a
mature selection.
Selection commitee is not having vision for tomorrow.... The selection is based on gut

absolutely Pankaj!!! good post... we love to hate people and love to support non-Indians rather than Indians...
Yuvraj on current form should play in test matches. The options we have is to choose between Dravid Ganguly Laxman and Yuvraj%u2026we cant play four of them so we need to play 3 on current form.
Looking at the stats since Ganguly%u2019s Return in Test Cricket.
Dravid 20.52(VS SOUTH AFRICA) 25.20(VS ENGLAND) Ganguly 42.80 (VS SOUTH AFRICA) 49.80(VS ENGLAND) Laxman 36.00(VS SOUTH AFRICA) 51.20(VS ENGLAND)
Well looking at these series averages tells us about the current form of these three and clearly Dravid should make way for Yuvraj.He cant wait when he is such a teriffic form.
