Come on as we all knows that we had lost the kolkotta test match if we have to win the nagpur test we have to some changes in the team as we all know we r going on the rough phase inshallah we will win the next match and level the series . Come on india Jai Hooo
when they know that pkayers like ishant,yuraj,kholi,gambir are not in form and they arent the test players why to select them? You have rahane,badrinath,murali,shikar dawan who are like pujara class why are they experimenting with nations pride.

Absolutely correct. They have selected one day cricketers for test matches. It works against minnows and on batting friendly pitches. As soon as we get a bouncy wicket or a turning track, they can't play. Selectors need to pick technically correct players.
Be proud of Sachin who has brought lot of laurels to India in all forms of Cricket. No true Indian will hate sachin.
In this test series even Dhoni, Yuvi, Kohli didn't bat well too but all people has begun to blame Sachin. It is just a slump in his form. He will score century soon in coming tests.

Yes, Pakisthan hopes for a series win in India, who can help them the best. Yes Waqar, we can understand
First let the "formidable", "enviable", "strong" Indian batting line up put up a score of 500 and then, let people pass the blame on the bowlers. Yuvaraj has time and again proved he's not test class and despite that, the likes of lesser talents like him and Raina or preferred ahead of more compact, sound and competent Badris and Tiwaris. Why the selectors aren't able to think beyond the failing at every instance Rohits, Rainas and Yuvis? Give Badri another longer run and we have nothing to lose. He can't do any worse than a Kohli or Yuvi. Finding scapegoat in Ashwin and protecting Zaheers and Ishants and the "ugly ducklings" batsmen from the wrath isn't going to do anything good. Give the bowlers enough support by setting attacking fields and giving them enough cushion by means of runs in the kitty. If they fail blame them and not just one; the entire bowling unit should take the blame. Match winner (like a Kumble or a Murali) is someone who covers up for the bad day of the other and makes up for it by stepping up his own bowling and not someone who finds solace in a 2 for 3 for 100 odd runs and goes through the motion. Do not single out a weak Ashwin alone for the plight of the team today. The entire bowling unit, the captain whose brain ceased to work and is clueless to control things and the famed batting line up consisting paper tigers should the blame collectively.

anyone from CSK (even the benchwarmers) can do better than Tendulkar on his current form. Even the "little" master would agree on it. Ashwin proved it already. `need more proof? implement your suggestion and see. Tendulkar is past his prime and there's no need to attach any sentiment over his form. He hasn't done any honorary service and was heftily paid even when he wasn't performing. Thanks for the service rendered Mr. Tendulkar and now, goodbye!

LOLZ, why do you assume that I said so?
I summed up your whole message (about non performance of the batting order) in 5 words :).
And if someone does not find anything worth writing about, it is not abnormal to post their views on a relevant article..... I dont find him even ordinary nowadays (forget being extra-ordinary).....
Not many here knows India won most of their home matches not because of rowdy and selfish tendulkar but because of these players 1) Kumble: He was master and most dangerous player world has seen on indian pitches. If you see the track record all home series were won by india because kumble wrapped up innings specially last innings.
2) Dravid: During his peak and even lately he use to stand up strong not like pujara who after 2 matches again went inconsisten and pujara is still to be tested on fast pitches where dravid stood like wall
3) Laxman: whenever it mattered he always played unlike Tenda who always loose his wicket when it matters. Waht is the use of statistics when you cant play on time
4) Harbhajji: He was no as effective as kumble but very good supporter because the quality of spinners now with ashwin, ishant worst indian bowler, pathan bowling is so weak means weakest
These players ensured India win all home series but now really doubtful India can even win home series. Selfish one's need to be shown door. Dhoni did nothing but took all credit and he was never a test plater

Do you know cricket or ever played atleast tennis ball cricket in your life? No one in the game can plan and score at his wish.It is all depended on that day's fate.they may score a ton or fail to score even 1 run.Respect him as he single handedly carried the burden of indian team for 23 years.what others are doing.Plugging hair on the track
