Looking at the match results in recent past,right from the T20 world cup, it seems that most of the matches nowadays are FIXED because most of the times the results are UNEXPECTED which help the bookies.Give it a thought
BCCI & DHONI have experimented with youngsters like- 1) Rohit Sharma 2) Dhinesh Karthik 3) Robin Uthappa 4) Ravindra Jadeja 5) Abhishekh Nayar 6) Virat Kohli 7) Yusuf Pathan 8) Subramaniam Badrinath.....more to come
Why dont they bring back Rahul Dravid who played well in Sri Lanka & South Africa 1) He score 49, 39, 76 with average of 33.0 runs, even after returning after 2 yrs, whose career average is 39.00.
India got all out for 226, still there were 4 overs left. IF there was someone like Dravid the story would have been different.
Ravindra Jadeja & Virat Kohlia have filed with bat, still how many more chance they want to give to youngsters, world cup is very close. They must utilize the existing people. May be can experiment with youngsters after world cup.
Rahul Dravid is the key man to save India always. He plays little slow than others which is what needed in ODI as the rest are their to blast and boost the score. If no one can give stability to the side this waht happens. In case openers fail to hold the wicket it is sure that mostly we loose because there is no wall. Do not remove him until you find another Dravid.

We got 2 players already on Dravid's mould. Those two are the most successful batsman in last 2-3 years, Badrinath & Pujara. There are people who says Srikanth is biased,But surprisingly Badrinath never finds a place in the squad. They should be given chances atleast in the test arena to prove themselves.
Selectors and dhoni wud be better off,if the give a chance to the IPL fame RCB batsman Manish Pandey.He still holds the record for the highest score,in a T20 game by an Indian batter.He also has scored a 194 n.o. yesterday against UP,in the ranji trophy match,being played at meerut.He is agud feilder as well.And yes,dravid has scored a 97 in the same match,bt going to him will be a step behind,as although he is prolific,bt a slow coach as well.Also,Uthappa got out for a duck on the 2nd ball he faced,in the same match.

You are ridiculuously dumb. How can one match be a criteria for selection anyway. The thing to be seen is consistency. If he is consistently scoring for the full domestic season, I appreciate your support. Agreed Manish Pandey is a good talent. That doesn't mean he should be selected straight away. If that is the case ,well, there are many people standing in the queue before him. Pujara, Badrinath, Abhinav Mukund(last year in 17 matches,1518 runs with 300 in a ranji match and unbeatn century in challenger 50 over series). People like Dravid,Sachin, Laxman,Ganguly even Dhoni, Gambhir came to Indian team after toiling away in domestic matches and consistent performances. It will be a great insult to Dravid, if people like you start comparing Dravid with Mainish Pandey.

Hello brother========== thanks for ur precious advice and I have also replied u dear.
that's good. the entire focus on the 3rd ODI was not on winning the game, but on sachin getting to 17K runs..by the media. this is just a media hype for sachin and he was under pressue to get to 17k forgot about the match as such... well he got out and it was the umpire 's mistake... sheer bad luck. Dhoni is not a strategist for he cannot think...he just relies on luck..I was told that the chandigarh match was fixed????
....not dropped on performance but because he acts like monkey. should be brought back to replace other non performing monkeys like ishant, jadeja and co.
Its high time the blunt always comes on new comers and youngsters even if they fail in 1 inning. I think we should remove Sachin and rest Virat and Ravindra Jadeja...
Instead Robin Uttapa should come in and bat at 3, (Sehwaq and Gambhir) to open. Yousuf Pathan in place of Ravindra Jadeja and Rohit Sharma (If required due to any injury). The Team INDIA should be
Please dont comment if you wish to comment about that Selfish Sachin who is just making millions of rupees by fooling we cricket driven nation. I am least bothered to read any favours for Sachin. In last 5 world cup we are not able to win.

You are ridiculuously dumb. How can one match be a criteria for selection anyway. The thing to be seen is consistency. If he is consistently scoring for the full domestic season, I appreciate your support. Same is the issue with Jadeja.Without seeing a consistent performance ,selectors gave hime the chance. Though he is doing well in bowling,we can see the results of premature selection in his batting. Agreed Manish Pandey is a good talent. That doesn't mean he should be selected straight away. If that is the case ,well, there are many people standing in the queue before him. Pujara, Badrinath, Abhinav Mukund(last year in 17 matches,1518 runs with 300 in a ranji match and unbeatn century in challenger 50 over series).

Don't experiment with dropping senior players like Sachin, Dravid,they are attracting crowd and creating psychological fear to the opponents and moral support to our Indian team.

Nice.. get rid of the guy who scored the most runs in the game (Sachin). Maybe we should also get rid of the guy who took the most catches and took the most wickets. That will be a winning combination
