I wish Dravid should play and India should loose by heaviest margin ever with dravid playing as many balls as all other batsmans play and score least. I think dravid is the best choice as decided by the team. Which other player do you think can draw the match by staying there long on the crease? Dravid comes handy in this situation.

jaffer is new .. dont compare dravid with JAffer .. we expect much more from Dravid as he is playing a lot and earning a lot for last 10 years ..
This has to be the most ridiculous thing... Over that as per cricinfo, there is a speculation that even yuvraj might not be there....I still remember in the commentary last time when micheal slater and mark taylor where commentating and were making dirct fun of our run rate which was 1.12 after 35 overs...They were confident that with no Sehwag , yuvraj failing and both dravid and laxman not in the same form as they were in the last couple of series, there was no chance we would achieve 500 even if we batted the entire 2 days...At first we might get angry at such comments and sarcastic remarks ,but the truth is we deserve that...Even now without Sehwag, that is just ridiculous and also a speculation to leave out yuvraj on just one match's failure....We deserve to loose..

at least u were awake to hear those comments. I shut off the TV so I wouldn't break it watching clueless Dravid hop skip and jump like a frightened cat.

abe oye aussie fan hai tu ya 'Neighbourhood fan' hai? Padosi desh ke chamche. Khaaana yahan ka aur gaana wahan ka. koi baat nahin.
Laxman should open the innings as he is a good player of fast bowling. He is not scared of fast bowling. Dravid should come at no. 3. As far as bowling Kumble is the only strike bowler India got. Zaheer is an opening bowler but in Aussie he would just be a support bowler. Give Pathan a chance in tests for 8 to 10 tests and see how he performs. He got a lot of talent to become a very goo allrounder. He can take 2 to 3 wickets and consistently score 40's. Can be very useful. India needs to groom a future captain just like Australia is doing. There is nobody in the team that can match Ponting's leadership.
guys, how can ne1 even expect india to win ? its not a fair expectation. coz india vs aus is like monkeys vs lions. it shud actually be india vs st. mary's gals high school (sydney). i live in sydney n i know better !

Hey then u dont know the Inidand and India team. Last time also in 2001 u have done the same mistake. After winning 16 tests continuosly Steve Waugh was dreaming to win against India also. But what happened? You cant win even series also? He has to retire without winning in India. So just wait and watch.
