take virat kohli instead of suresh raina and sachin tendulkar and virendar sehwag needs a good start and india must score above 250 and restrict aussies to below 200.

Noway we can remove Suresh Raina, he is a performer/fielder/partime bowler.
No need to remove anyone or add from 2nd ODI. Retain the winning squad.
ishant is a quite good seemer....but he was not using his speed......at nagpur odi he has incresed the speed of bowling so ultimately he has got good results.......he has lots of variations but at the same time he has to give more speed like he has done in Nagpur.Best luck to him
Replace Gambhir with Rohit Sharma..Gambhir always gets set n then gets out..leaving the team in hole and that too he does it intentionally around powerplays..plays for himself and thats y scores good enough to remain in team...Bring Back Rohit Sharma..!!! Jai Maharastra!!!

Rohit is a good batsman and a reasonable bowler, but not in place of Gambhir - We can't even think of Tendulkar in place of Gambhir given Gambhir's last one year performance.

JAI MAHARASHTRA .... We Maharashtrians get insulation if anyone says Jai Maharashtra and we have to again reciprocate his greetings with the same words. This is like Namaskara, Vaddakkam or Salaam Walekum. Nothing wrong is saying JAI MAHARASHTRA.

That seems really funny ritesh... u feel rohit is better than gambhir.. then y is rohit out of team and gambir in top of batting charts... i cant get it..
Sachin is a liability to and no more an asset to the team.
Wish, Indian selectors and the board too have similar guts like their Srilankan counterparts to inform Sachin that, he needs to perform to hold his place. Of late, he has become such a liability to the team and he denies youngsters like Dinesh Karthick, Rohit Sharma their well deserved place in the team. In India it seems like the corporates and MNCs who have invested on these multi billionaire cricketers have a say in the matters concerning selection than the selection committee itself. After every poor showing, the hunt is always on to find the scape goats and the lesser mortals like Prasad, Robin who do not have any lobbies suffer ultimately. Sachin! if you really love India and if you're a patriot, retire from all forms of cricket as we have seen enough of u and would love to see a young hero performing... There's no need for any sympathy here and he didn't do any free service to the nation. He played for India for a price. Place in Indian team is not anyone's birth right and it should be eaned on the basis of performance.

Sachin is never a liability to team and he is a great asset to the team India.If the young players Score in 1 match they will not Score in 10 matches. But with sachin it is different.

Actually the aussies are afraid of thrashing from Indians, therefore they have feigned injury. Anyway their bench strength is never anything inferior.
Australians are aiming at getting Sachin at low score and to achive their ultimate aim of Sachin's retirement ? Sachin has lost his power game and now his game is suited only for test matches and as such Sachin should concentrate only on playing Test Matches. We do not know whether India's top order will fire again but Australian aiming to fire Sachin ?

For Sachin Few Days are sunday and he fails, for Shewag Dhoni and Yuvi, Everyday is not froday and they may score now and then. Whatever people say Sachin will decide his Bat and Fate
Re: Australians aiming at sachin's low score
by Junior Don on Oct 30, 2009 07:54 PM
Sachin fails in a series or two does not matter. His presence itself is inspiration to team, therefore he should continue up to 2015 at least. BCCI should feel lucky that they have got legandary sachin in the team.

Ya, sure sachin should play till 2030, with his son, which would be another record. Come on sachin, go for it...
