it seems he become a scapegoat. i dont think selectors will be able to justy his exclusion from the team. firstly if they dont want him then y did they include him in the team for CT. and if included then its very unfair for a player with 13 year experience to be dropped just after a series. he did not performed so bad that lead to the exclusion of him. instead of dropping him selector must concentrate on improving the bowling attack. its very poor that any riffraff batsman can easily hit our bowler. its really bad for dravid. he deserve far better farewell.

Very true. What shastri and akram says is correct. We have problems in finding a bowlers who could bowl at over 140 kms, but when we do, we find them losing their pace within a few matches. Take the example of munaf patel and now ishant sharma. It is funny reading dhoni's comment when he says that what is more important is the line and length and not the pace. Sure, line and length is important, but every bowler bowls a certain pace which helps him maintain his rythm. The moment he starts to reduce his pace, his rythm goes awry and line and length suffers. Also there has rarely been a history of medium pacers winning matches on a consistent basis for a country. What BCCI needs to do is find real quick bowlers on a priority basis and encourage them, without which we have no chance of becoming world champions.

You must be kidding, right? Who ever was eliminated was based on performance. If he really wanted to remove Muslim then he did not need to select Patel. Only selection/elimination, I did not understand was Ishant and Dravid if the selection was only based on performance.

Hahaha im a disgrace to the country?which country,i havent even lived in ur racist country India in the last 11 years,i live in USA and im relieved i dont live in the caste based society that u high caste brahmins live in..thank god for that.. as far MR Truth,which world r u living in?Krish Srikanth is a biased pride filled arrogant tamil brahmin,he is against mullahs,he always used to make bad remarks about Azhar during his playing days in his column,infact it was Azhar who got lucky and got the captaincy from Srikanth who never let that thing go,plus under Azhar Srikanth got the boot from the team.
Only Munaf is in the squad,before srikanth we had mullahs like Zaheer(who is injured i know),Yusuf Patha,Irfan Pathan,Kaif,Munaf etc..but now we got only Munaf,plus he always kept his tamil brahmin buddy Dinesh Karthik,only now some sense has prevailed and the tiny Sambar Karthik is out...Cheeka sure is a idiot....caste system is the biggest curse of india plus guys like u who live in denial or act as if it doesnt exist...shame on u all
its not easy for the right handed bowler tyagi to bowl like zaheer... since zaheer is left arm bowler.. hence its better for tyagi to bowl like himself and focus on pace and accuracy. he can learn from mcgranth since he was the greatest than zaheer khan.
