But why is he not playing the Ranji matches already ? As per media report he is going to play only one Ranji match against lowly placed Orissa!Will it be good enough for selection to the tough Australian series ?It is not clear why such kid-glove treatment to such an inconsistent player.He does more Nakhras than his real worth.It is time for the selectors not to put up with such idiosynchrosis of players.We are already having enough from our cricketing God.

Team India cannot be called world beaters unless they start winning overseas. In India, the pitches are like National Highways and one can hit the bowler on the up, irrespective of his pace. The real technique of any batsman comes out when he faces swinging/seaming/bouncing deliveries on foreign pitches.
Indian pitches are tailor-made for batsmen and spinners.

"The real technique of any batsman comes out when he faces swinging/seaming/bouncing deliveries on foreign pitches" Says who exactly ? Bradman ?
mumbaikers and punjabis are fighting for a slot????? India does'nt matters. But for the rest of 1000 million Team India is important. Sachin and sardarji won't playing after 2011. Bingo , enough of it .
after sScrewingg india at crucial occasion by not telling fully about his fitness in England , he walked out of a crucial match. zaheer is making amends. Hope he does not make that mistake of not correctly disclosing his fitness again when younger Indian fast bowlers begin to rise on their own.
We are not ready for zaheer if he is not fully committed. Hope he does not derail new indian bowlers without them knowing it. He will be watched.
Hai Folks , don't emotional for regions. Emotional and fight for India, the country matters the most. Champions never whinge eg Steffi Graff, Pele , Sampras , Jack Nicholsan , Cashes Clay or Muhammed Ali , Michael Jordan , Magic Johnson, Bubka , Daley Thompson . Follow the greats and became aGreat, message for mumbokers and for sachin.

Zaheer will last only 2 test, wait and see tamasahs plus fast bowlers rabbit yuvaraj fits to play only in one day. rp singh, harbajan, sreesanth , amit sharma , munaf , nehra already retired from Test Cricket. Don't u know that , sardarji

@Krishna,
I am not a friend nor a supporter. But my dear friend look at the previous record of H'bhajan at Aussie tour. And moreover we need experience in the bowling side. If if Zaheer again enjured then this sardar with his experience lead the bowling attack. Forget he takes wicket or not, but experience counts my dear.

how long he keeps on playing, be straight forward like Kim Hughes or like Greenidge. He played for more than 22 yrs. let's break and the Ever Green Dravid will Shepered the young batters along with VVS. We don't need any more pests. Rohit,two Tiwaries, Paul Vallthaty, and handful of batsman are waiting for this 4th slot. Enough, how long we can continue with an old aox

Viru, Gauti, Rahul, SRT, VVS, Kohli, MSD, Ishanth, Yadav, Aaron, Ashwin, Ojha will definitely be there. About the remaining 3 to 4 slots, your guess is as good as mine.
