SACHIN world's senior most playes since last 7 years after WALSH retire is just here for making money, gettng lucarative ads and making runs at his comfort for his own sake. IS 22 YEARS IS LESS TO UNWIND AND UNDERSTAND HIS MIND.
We have good players waiting for their chances....They should not be wasted by giving Kohli repeated chances. The list is Rohit Sharma Abhinav Mukund Abhishek Nayar Manoj Tiwary Badrinath Robin Bist S Yadav Stuart Binny

another bunch of brahmins or higher caste of hindus.that's indian cricket,so the reason why indian cricket suffered!
Virat has just started playing and will take time to build his temperament that is vital in test. The Indian team should take some time out from series and tournaments and start to build a new team under a new coach now with an eye on the future. A change in the key position of any team in, business, sports or politics, affects the performance of the team. We should not pressurize for heads on platter but let players take time out from active cricket and work on team building. Let them play domestic matches and start from scratch rather than do patch-up work. Things will definitely improve and its high time BCCI looked beyond moneymaking. Once that combination is achieved, tried, tested and ready with replacements in case of emergencies then they can go ahead and plan tours. Axing is not the only solution but should be followed by basic team building that will take at least 6 months.
Because you failed in England and you are failing now again and again. This is the time to say " I need to work hard " and not show finger.Dravid and sachin are still performing. Viru and laxman, till now have not done anything but you never know they might make a big one. It has happened not once but many times in the past. but the likes of Kohli, rohit and also the selectors have been given too many chances. they are good only on Indian wikets...
You are a hard worker. Having said that, test matches are training grounds. India wld have had a chance in the three tests, if someone batted with gusto and produced some critical runs.
The no 6 position is a critical position and the role is to save the team when in trouble. You failed to do that in three matches.
You need to score tons of runs in ranji and obviously you millionaires dont want to put in dat hard work to sort out your technique.
The whole indian media is after Dravid who was top scorer in last calendar year.also laxman(perhaps Laxman case is valid) But no one has questioned Sachin Sachin is also 39, in Eng he was poor except a 91 in last inn.His reflexes has gone down nad scoring just because of experience but no big runs. Dravid scored 6 hundreds last year , may be he will leave after this series, then so should sachin

Yes but dont you understand he has to get to his 100th hundred. Losing the series - no big deal, only important thing is he gets to his hundreth 100. We will lose 8-0 in the two most important series, but so what?? It will all pale in comparison to Sachin's record even if he gets there after trying for a year..
simply becuase you are not from mumbai and mumbai players(rohit and rahane) are waiting in the wings.had it been a badrinath or a raina, there would not be so much pressure. entire india knows if a mumbai player scores even a 50 he is the next big thing - rahane in england, rohit against windies..thanks to the extremely super strong mumbai ex-cricketer lobby in the media, it is natural they are promoted. ever wondered why a sachin is promoted more than a dravid ? just keep scoring hundreds.

Delhi is no better than Mumbai with both having their own good lobbying. Kohli is not a test player and his technique for the tests is not convincing.

did we ask kohli to raise finger to exhibit his frustration in finding someone to lLeech and hate upon?
People are after something Because you have great connections with dhoni/selectors like gambhir and bhaji-yuvi used to have. thus you deny chance to someone who did better than you even in WI. you also copy cat things that are unsuitable for your height and thus ....
YOU ARE SORT OF CARTEL member LIKE MMS is. who cares where nation goes.

Rahane failed in the two side games and they couldnt risk playing him. Actually though you are right, they should have. Afterall he couldnt have performed any worse than our senior batsmen
then why does he utter words like a teenage girl and a cry baby.This shameless ppl make millions of Rupees out of mediocrity but still cannot take a few qwords in criticism.
