RE:My 15 memeber squad for matches against Pakistan

Ridiculous Aravind... SO strange.. You want to leave out Sreesanth and select kids like Parthiv Patel. Sreesanth won the T20 World Cup for us with that catch ...in all the tension.. and he is such an amazing bowler.
And more funny.. you have put Badrinath as the last name in your list. Badrinath has scored 5 centuries playing for INdia -A and when INdia-A was struggling at 90/5 against South Africa-A in a match ... he came and saved INdia by scoring 88 in 89 balls with 2 sixes also taking INdia to 290 in 50 ovs...and apart from that he took 4 wkts to help India-A win match and series. Parthiv Patel did nothing except keep wickets, being a keeper.
What abt Amit Mishra and Pragyam Ojha. .. amazing spinners...and you dont want such people.. how funny
you really have poor cricket knowledge. you still want to select Sachin and Saurav when whole of INdia wants them to focus on Ads and young INdians to play for country now. YOu still want Sachin and Sourav to play despite playing 300 , 400 ODIs. Why ..Others should not get chance at all kya ?
As if we dont have great players in young INdia in a population of a billion.
YOur cricket sense is poor man..Sorry.
BUt I hope we get a young team without any oldies. So that we can smash the opposition like we did in T20 World Cup. We dont need oldies to play 10 matches and score 1 50 or...play 100 balls and score 50 runs..or play till they are 50 years of age. We want YOUTH .. YOUNG FAST WINNING LEGS.

Ganedsh you conviniently rediculed Aravind, but more rediculous comment is urs. You want fresh legs...wht fresh legs...making runs against a poor bowling attack of South african A side on a dead pitch...where even kaif made 98...taking 8 list A wickets in over 25 matches...and you still nominate badrinath an allrounder...remember he took 4 wkts on one innnings only so tht means only 5 wkts in 24 matches...let him play some domestic and learn wht it takes to play in internationsl especially ODIs. its not easy and the moment u compared T20 with ODI, i understood the level of your cricket knowlege...take a break and learn cricket then we will talk...ok boy
I am not surprised to see people complaining. If he was not dropped, the same people would be complaining after a few more matches. 51 runs in 10 matches is really poor. I think he is regretting when he failed to give follow-on to England. This was truly a turning point for him and he will find it difficult to recover from this. This poor decision has affected his mental balance. First he resigned as captain, then he flopped as batsman.

It time tht youngsters be given more chances as they wld be performing in the future..well not on performance i believe infact suggest that out of saurab , tendulkar and dravid, in every matches on of the three should be compulsory rested.. this way our bench strenght would and tried and given the needed experience

Karthick who replace Dravid, failed too. Like Jaffer, I think Karthick should be played in test matches, only.

I think dravid will retire from cricket he seems very tried and not motivated enough take a break, man take a break for six months. let's see how indian team performs.
whenever people ruled out dravid, he came back with a bang. Hope this time, he also comes back good again. its good for the indian team that he has been dropped.

i think u always notice poor performance of indian players....not the players from other nation....

if kumble,srinath were not talented then which other bowlers u think are talented?
In india The donkey will become horse and Horse will become Donkey. Dravid is the only player who was left out due to form. If he deserves to go out cos of form then no one in the team deserves to play in the 11..

abbe slave. see the result of today's match. dravid is being paid good money to play, not waddle around with his bat and come back with a sorry face. he didnt' do any national service. he didnt' charge some mountain peak for 12000 bucks a month. dimwit.

what your getting ? I think you are a jobless. Hence shouting like donky
All these Indain players are not atall in comparison with Australins. No need to be worry.Ok...... Do not hope much from them. T20 was not a big win.Indain spectators wakat pe aajao
