Dravid has been wonderful in England. India's batting order is failing to capture England and r uncomfortable with d pace of England....but Dravid iz proving himself as a true batsman. i think Sachin and Dravid must open and Dhoni must be placed at 3rd position as he has d ability to hit big strokes and in d middle order must be Virat so I think India can expect 2 win......India must not expect fully on Zaheer but also encourage d new bowlers as they have also proved themselves as India's bright future.......BEST OF LUCK INDIA...!!!

Shirish, Laxman is fit only for tests, enough chances have been given to him for One-day matches. It is best if BCCI does not overburden the players and force them to play both formats. It is time to find replacements for Dravid, Laxman and Sachin. But i am sure that the shoddy BCCI will start repenting only after India reach 8th or 9th position after these 3 guys retire the arena.
Atlast the India team management and selectors have shown some common sense and asked for RP Singh to replace Zaheer Khan for the last 2 tests. Lets hope RP makes it in time for the 3rd Test. He should have been sent after the 1st Test atleast.
PONTING SAID, SACHIN AND DRAVID INSPIRATION FOR MANY CRICKETERS LARA SAID SACHIN IS WORLD NO.1 BEST PLAYER DRAVID SAID - SACHIN IS MY INSPIRATION MANY GREAT EX-PLAYERS SAID SACHIN IS GREATER THAN BRADMAN BUT SOME FOOLS ALWAYS CRY AT SACHIN BLINDLY.
At last very good decision to drop Harbhajan.The selectors took too much time to drop HArbhajan and given very good amount of rope for years. We have better spinners in Ojha and Amit Sharma than Harbhajan in India. But they are ignored all these years at the cost of Harbhajan.Given the chances these two spinners proved themselves and done well in all the matchers they played. In the matches both HArbhajan and Amit Sharma played , Amit had better figures than HArbhajan. But in the name of experience, Harbhajan had been picked up ahead of them.Why the selectors use the word experience to select Harbahajan all these years ahead of Ojah and Amit,when Harbhajan did not play well in the recent past.Even in the IPL, these two guys did well for their respective teams compared to Harbhajan to Mumbai Indians.
Dear selectors do not hesitate to drop senior players when they are not playing well and give chances to talented players.

If Sachin scores 2 more centuries to make it 50 ODI centuries, will he not automaticallly complete his 100 tons?
Ofcourse, Sachin has a good chance of scoring his 52nd test ton to make it 100 centuries even before the ODI series begins.

Both Virat and Raina will play. It's not or, it's and. Throw that useless player Rohit Sharma out who hardly delivers or hangs around when India needed him the most.
Good to see nehra and sreeshant not in the team. If Dravid can be called back then why not give Irfan Pathan a chance? He is always better and useful than Munaf and Vinay Kumar

My friend, I do not like to discuss with those who consider Nehra as international standered bowler and considering him as 2nd best after ZAK shows that you do not know much about cricket
