Please select Dinesh Kartik in place of W Saha,Wasim Jaffer or Raina inplace of Injured Dravid, Nehra or Ojha Inplace of Mishra.Always take experinece and Young talented player.
why cry ?? do well next time... how can anyone simply forget shewag's triple hundred in chennai.. yehh.. guys cool ya it's just one test match.. our zaheer will bounce back and laxman takes care in 2nd innings as he did for australia. Series levelled 1-1 BYE
Yes, he along with Sehwag and Tendulkar should share some bowling! Bring in Kartik and Ojha! TEAM: Gambhir, Sehwag, Laxman (#3), Tendulkar, Vijay (Badrinath), Dhoni, Dinesh Kartik, Zaheer, Mishra, Sreesanth, Ojha
why harbhajan is still hanging around, considering the fact that he has been the worst bowler since last 4-5 test matches.. and don't blame out other spinner- amit mishra, as per i think is amit mishra can actually turn a bowl really well then harbhajan singh. secondly we shouldn't criticize either ishant sharma because he didn't bowl as bad. common guys, stop blamming each others, we know selection was also a big criteria, where is irfan pathan (please don't say, he was injured--if he was, why would he play for duleep trophy) we need irfan pathan, we need ajit agarkar instead of ishant sharma (not only as a bowler, he can bat as well).. my team for the last test Gautam Gambhir Virender Sehwag VVS Laxman Sachin Tendulkar Rohit Sharma M.S Dhoni Irfan pathan Ajit agarkar Amit Mishra
what do you think guys, am i right? as per the newcomers is concerned, they should have got a chance in bangladesh test series to prove-- South africa isn't a ordinary team Best of Luck To Our Team We are going to come with a bang in the second test..Mark my words Guys!! Zaheer Khan S. Sreesanth

agarkar hasn't had any chance since he played aussie series way back in 2004, remember he was the only one who made the aussies rolling by claming 6 wickets in second innings and india defeated aussies after 22 yrs in australia. so better get ur facts

you recommanded dhoni to bowl..isn't it? what next sreesanth doing wicketkeeping and gambhir right arm fastest ..?? pathetic dhoni bowling??
i am surprised that why india cannot play with 10batsmen and 5 bowlers. That's the only mantra to be no.1. if a team do not have 5 good all rounder, it is always risky to win. Why suresh raina, dinesh kartik, yousuf pathan not considered in absence of laxman, dravid and ishant sharma? Why is sreshanth considered who cannot bat and bowl as required considering his performance with bangladesh? DO NOT EXPERIMENT TOO MUCH WHEN YOU ARE GIVEN AN ACID TEST...!
Sack Shrikanth, how can he play stupid games like this 1) Pitch is in favor of South African team 2) Team is with two debutants- Badrinath and Saha- you cannot expect big hundreads from them 3) Laxaman injured still in team 4) What a joke, unplayed players Abhimanyu Mithun and Sudip Tyagi are fired...instead of sacking Ishant Sharma !

By his own admission "As the chairman of the selection panel, I am willing to own up responsibility. It's a lesson learnt and from now on, we will not select players who are not 100 per cent fit," - referring to Laxman's selection in the squad despite the uncertainty over his availability ahead of the match. If he admits it is fine but only goes to prove that all along 100% match fitness was never a criteria in the selection process.Other countries a sack would be the outcome for such candidness.Maybe he has mouthed so in total disorientation bornout of defeat.
