Wonder, whether this is the team which won us World Cup, Series after Series Test Match wins and World No.1 Rank? Surprised MSD opted for bowling when he knows fully well that our bowlers are now going through rough patch and our streangth always was batting. Has his forgotten his captaincy skills or ....?
Not sure when india will learn the art of bowling that has good lenth pitcing,seam,pace,bounce. Why cant they watch the videos of successful englishmen bowlers from the first two tests or aus-england test matches.
Having said that, bureacratic indian bowling coaches needs to be removed. they make indian bowlers bowl well in certain matches/time and during other times, they misguide them to bowl bad to keep their jobs.
Something is happening because of these coaches,team management, dressing room

Pravin Kalyan Amre pronunciation (help·info), born on August 14, 1968, Mumbai, is an Indian cricketer.
Amre represented India in 11 Test matches scoring one 100 and three 50s with a batting average of 42.50. However, these figures did not help him to become a regular fixture in the national team. He found himself in Indian colours just for two seasons from 1992 to 1994... Dennis Lillee himself said Amre was the best player of pace bowling,even better than Viv Richards and Bishen Bedi said he was the best playr of spin bowling,even better than Gundappa Vishwanath.
He had the rare honour of scoring a century in his debut Test match. It came against a South African side that included Allan Donald and Brian McMillan.He was known to be asthmatic.
He had a good record in domestic cricket playing for Mumbai Cricket Team, Railways, Rajasthan and Bengal. He also played in South Africa with Boland. His 246 for Rest of India against Bengal is still the highest by any bastman in the Irani Trophy.
Amre came from the same school of cricketers as Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli, and like Tendulkar and Kambli, he was also coached by Ramakant Achrekar. He is the only Indian cricketer to score a half century on his ODI debut and also a century on his test debut
He is the current coach of the Mumbai Cricket Team, and the assistant coach of the Indian Premier League side, Pune Warriors India. it is better to cancel fletcher appointment and send praveen ambre to help prav
and manaf can take equal wickets as sreesanth, there is something very wrong in the picture that videshi want indian selectors to see. make them MAKE a WRONG team SELECTION.
i would recommend, selectors consider Pragyan ojha along with Rahul, an swing allrounder such as Irfan or ... should be considered.

india played most of the test against weaker side for past 3 years to be ranked no 1 in test.
