bhajji is a great bowler so was anil..and i dont think pragyan ojha comes even close to them. So stop bickering abt his inclusion he has to prove himself worthy enough to get selected,bowling in a high scoring match with 300 runs in ur kitty bowlers dont have a ny kind of pressure in the back of their minds. AND ALSO HE ONLY SCALPED THE TAILENDERS AND LOWER MIDDLE ORDER WHO DONT HAVE ANY HIGH BATTING SKILLS. OJHA IS A WORTHLESS BOWLER.

What is in a name? A rose, called by any other name, will smell as sweet. This is what Shakespeare said.

Chaturchuramoniji, please talk of recent past - say his performances in spinning tracks of India, Srilanka etc. in the last 3-4 series. You will find to your shock that you cannot defend him. Bhajji = Hype!

Team needs Bhajji

Team needs Punjab do putar for couple more years. He is one of those who can give fitting reply to Australian's cheating and sledging.
He can teach all new comers how to fight against australian cheaters

Bhaji

The real problem for India is there is no good as well as experienced spin bowler other than Bhaji. Where is Murali Karthik?

Don't be blind. Ohja, Amit Mishra, Piyush Chawla, Ravindra Jadeja etc. are all good spinners. Experience will come, when they play more. Bhajji is all hype and no substance. His match winning days are finished, unless he focusses on his game and not on reality shows, sledging, arrogant interviews etc.

As to Murali Kartik, he was never really an international level player, but made news by bowling in dustbowl of pitch in Mumbai.

If only BCCI would have given more opportunities to the likes of Amit Mishra in the last 3-4 years, fans would have by now forgotten Kumble and Bhajji. But all are not lucky in this world.

Bhajji's irresponsibility cost him his place..
by nagen samal on Feb 05, 2009 06:31 AM  | Hide replies

common guys..u know the stories. In india cricket is some thing like religion.If selector reject bhajji directly..there would be lot of noise..so injuriies are coverings...Bhajji is out..for his irresponsibility..bowling wide in last over..no control in himself and most uncomfotrable behaviour..Pragyan performed good ..so bhajji is logically out...

You are praising for no apparent reason except that you and him share the same ancestry and blaming others for being regional.Bloody hypocrite.Harbhajan's records are mediocre at best.Check his ODI average.It's over 32 for ODIs while for Pragyan Ojha it's less than 27.So on what ground Pragyan to be omitted and Harbhajan is a sure shot selection.Care to explain??

Ojha never performed well until the last ODI. If you have 300 in the board, bowlers can bowl with out pressure. That doesnot shows his ability.

You idiot.It's not regionalism.Harbhajan isn't a great bowler.He is an average bowler and his selection shouldn't be automatic.If you want to play Harbhajan, play him but don't discard Pragyan Ojha who has performed brilliantly in the limited opportunities he has had.No way you can push Pragyan out and play harbhajan.

India Preparing for War=Worldcup
by mohit on Feb 05, 2009 05:34 AM  | Hide replies

India is preparing for war which is worldcup 2011 india needs 15 match winners not 11 , so india has got 11 match winners
dhoni
yuvraj
sehwag
gambhir
raina
sharma
yousuf pathan
irfan pathan
zaheer khan
harbhajan singh
praveen kumar
i have not included sachin because i dont think sachin will be in 2011 worldcup team
and i think india needs the rest 5 from this pool of 8 players
pragyan ojha
rp singh
balaji
sreesanth
amit mishra
s dhawan
dinda
d karthick
munaf patel
I guess till now the world cup squad has been maximum 15-16 members but by 2011 it can change but for now this is my thinking ....

sharma in the top 11 is ishant sharma
and i would like to add rohit sharma in the pool of 9 players because i feel raina is anyday better than rohit sharma , team with lots of left handers always create problems for bowling
just take australias 2003 worldcup team for example.


batting skills i may agree that rohit is better than yousuf pathan
but yousuf pathan can bowl tight overs as well as he is a better fielder in cover region 9 outa 10 throws hits the stumps,
so he is a wicket taker in the sense.

Corrected List:

Pragyan replaces Harbhajan and
no team is complete without the
all time great Sachin Tendulkar.
Every one else in the list is replaceable.

SACHIN TENDULKAR
PRAGYAN OJHA

rest of the list:

dhoni
yuvraj
sehwag
gambhir
raina
sharma
yousuf pathan
zaheer khan
praveen kumar
