You can see Rahul Dravid - you oldies feel he can not play on one day - anyway he was a far better player than all of you together. He may not run like a hare for that How many can ? Perhaps with Laxman he is the best slip feilder in the side . Rest assured you will regret his omission .

You are right....let us see how Virat Kohli will play who is taking Rahul Dravid's place & also let's see how the bowlers will play after bowling & fielding coaches have been removed !!! will the performance be better or worst ????

Not only that, with the removal of Prasad and Robin as coaches, they have eliminated the south angle from the Indian team. It looks like a conspriracy.
AFTER SEEING ROSS TAYLOR'S TWO INNINGS( ONE AGAINST CAPE COBRAS AND YESTERDAY AGAINST DELHI DAREDEVILS)ONE CAN SAY THAT TAYLOR POSSIBLY IS THE BEST BATSMEN IN THIS TOURNAMENT. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A TAYLOR,A DUMINY, A SEHWAG, A YUVRAJ, OR A JAYASURYA, AND A TENDULKAR IS THAT ALL THE FORMER ONES LITERALLY TEAR INTO THE BOWLING TAKING RISKS, WHEREAS TENDULKAR GRAFTS RUNS WITHOUT TAKING UNDUE RISK. THAT IS WHY TAYLOR, SEHWAG, YUVI, SANATH, AND DUMINY ARE FEARED BY THE BOWLERS.
As you all can see India won the inaugural 20-20 but since then our quality of bowling, fielding and batting is just horrible and never again can we win another title with such kind of ad film crickteers.

Now days I am a big fan of Ross Taylor . His striking capability is unbelievable. Kumble/dravid/laxman performed well & again proved that age is no criteria even in T-20 as long as u are technically a good player- a fitting reply to dhobi for his arrogant speech last year that only young players can play T-20. Dhobi again played politics to keep deserving dravid out from ODI team against Australia. What an opportunist captain this guy is? Now days only criteria to get picked up in playing eleven is to be close friend of dhoni . Player like dravid/laxman(best player against Australia) sitting out & club level player like Ishant/Praveen/RP/Raina/Bhajji etc always in team even with consistent failure just because they are good friend of dhoni & are from north. I have never seen such an open politics in Indian team before. Slowly I will loose interest in Indian cricket team if this guy continue as a cpatain for long time. Anyway IPL is there to keep my interest alive in cricket.

Gambhir has failed in last 4 consecutive ODI/T-20 tournaments except for one good inning in ICC cup but he is still continuing . For dravid yardstick is different, one failure & he will be out. The fact is he included after two yrs & even without failure , dropped. keeping dravid, laxman etc out of team is shame for Indian cricket. But under shameful political captain dhobi, anything is possible. If this guy continue as a captain for long time, geniune cricketer lover will loos interest in national cricket team. To keep interest alive in cricket, we need to watch IPL only as there will be no politics there in picking playing eleven.
