I fail to understand how is the match in India's control with a lead of just 123 runs. 2 more days to go and anything can happen to the match, this is a very biased opinion of saying India has control over the match.

Blaine, we are talking about Test cricket !!!! and if you look into record books then you would realise how much was scored on 4 and 5 days.
"Sehwag went for an expansive sweep against a delivery from Raqibul Hasan outside off stump only to top-edge it to midwicket" Its Shakib that bowled it and Raqibul caught it, wake up rediff.

Result: India lost to Kenya by innings and 500 runs. Lost to Bangladesh by 3 innings and 5000 runs and all other teams refused to play with such a depleted side. They said they would rather play with Sachin alone than this gully team.
First of all I want to convey heartfelt thanks on behalf of all country men for serving Indian cricket so well for last decade or so. You have been outstanding cricketers and among all time greats. But , now the time has come to say ‘Goodbye’. By doing so you will again do Yeoman service to Indian Cricket. There are many good batsmen who have in them to become Great batsmen like you, but , if given an opportunity. That ‘if’ can become ‘certainty’ only if you realize. You also know very well, batsmen like Badrinath, Cheteshwar Pujara, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, M. Vijay , Virat Kohli etc. are waiting for break in the Test side.
Just remember your day when you first got break in national team. That time also some great cricketer was replaced. The wheel has come full circle. No it is your time to vacate space for new upcoming players.
By doing so, you will show your greatness once again.

Dear Rambo, if you have a job, please retire. This will create oppurtunity for some unemployed person

Un-Sachin:
Nobody forgot you. :)
BTW, why only Sachin? Lets start with Gambhir, Sehwag, Dravid, Sachin, Laxman, Karthik, etc. . right down to Sreesanth... :) Those playing 11 are blocking the road for millions of Indians who know how to play cricket. :) I presume, you are one of the contenders too.... right? :)
I do not understand why we select Bhajji. He has been the most expensive bowler and unable to take any wickets. His batting average is rather poor. Why can't we give him rest and take Mishra?

Bhajji has played better knocks against teams like Australia and that too in difficult conditions. Bhajji is far better than Mishra. Mishra has yet to rpove himself.
